Create a clean listing Well if the editor has to edit your listing, maybe it will leave it for later, or even delete it
Submit to an appropriate category
Do not use all letters upper case
Do not give a description full of keywords
Do not submit affiliate sites We do not accept affiliate sites as they are mirrors to other sites and they don't have original content
Do not submit mirrors Because sooner or later we will find out and you'll get banned
Do not submit more than one page of your site
Do not submit illegal sites Sorry guys we do not accept warez, mp3 and adult sites
Do not submit sites with 'default page' title and bad concept I can't expect you to be a proffesional designer, but a really bad designed site will be added only if it has really unique content
If you want to get listed quick, use the fast inclusion program ( costs 10 euro ) or give back a link to us. But either way please do not spam. We allways have about 1000 - 1500 sites in the queue so we can't add your site first because this wouldn't be right for the other webmasters that wait for their listings.
PS : Some people reading these requirements asked me ironically if we are a division of DMOZ or something. Well we are not ...but while we are sending 30 - 700 unique visitors to every single site listed each month, we would like to keep this directory as clean as it is possible.

Some quick updates
I see a lot of people submitting their sites in root categories, even when a more appropriate sub category exists.
For instance a real estate company submit their site to the category Bussiness & Economy instead of Bussiness & Economy / Real estate
Please don't do this. Keep your listings clean, because this way you'll help not only the editors, but everyone that has submitted a site to the directory.
Right now we have 3.000 records in the queue, and I suppose that you can understand how painfull is to check all of these sites....
