DMOZ Listing Help

Hey guys,

I have been running this through my head the last hour. I am submitting a listing to DMOZ and I can't figure out the correct verbiage.

Which one is correct?

"Provides structured settlement and annuity factoring broker services."

or

"Provides structured settlement and annuity factoring brokerage services."


Also, since my title is actually my domain name. Should I put my domain as the title?

Thanks Everyone.

Andrew

As a title you should put the name of your company. Problem I can't find a proper company name on your website, I also can not find any other information that would show me who you are. As a customer I prefer trustworthy companies and one thing trustworthy companies should do is put their name and contact information on their website (just a 888 telephone number isn't enough for me).
If your company name is StructuredSettlement-Quotes.com than that would be the proper DMOZ title.
For the question about the description both seem OK to me. But remember that the reviewing editor might change the description you suggested to anything he thinks is more appropriate.

PS me looking at your site and giving these answers does not mean that your site is listable, only an official review can determine if it is

Sorry, I missed that. Not the most obvious place for me to look. Expection this kind of information "contäct us" or "about us" pages.

I would probably go with:

Provider of structured settlement and annuity factoring brokerage services
or
Provides structured settlement and annuity factoring brokerage service(without the "s")

"Provider of services" or "Provide a service"....You know what I mean? "Provides a services" just doesn't sound right.

But brokerage for certain....Broker implies that you are doing it as an individual, brokerage implies that you are doing it as an agency. People tend to trust groups more than singles.
