There is nothing wrong with submitting once every 3-4 months ... unless things have changed since I was an editor it does not overwrite your earlier submission and move you down the list ... nor does it really annoy most of the editors I knew to see a couple of submissions in the list of a category that is rare edited ... but if you have submitted it that many times it might be a bit much ...

Have you tried sending a very polite note to the editor? That does sometimes help ... though it may also fall on deaf ears ...

And applying to edit the most relevant category is an excellent idea ... a client of mine just got accepted and voila, his site is now added!

Cheers, MJ
