“When you submit your site to Dmoz, just take care that you use your business name as a title and a proper description. Never use your targeted keyword for submission. Also, choose correct category and region. This will help you at some points to get your submission approved.”
That's true. Though it does depend how many editors there are for your category as to how soon (or not) your listing request will be reviewed.
