I made the mistake of not removing my old site
I did this 3 months ago.

Is there any way of deleting site. If theres not, can I ask someone to delete it, an editor. My account gets deleted in 1 months time, will it br rectified then?

I removed the index page from my isp account, but I think this is still damaging my chances of getting indexed and seen.

my old page is http://www.users.tpg.com.au/tf76/

My new one is linked off my sig

Thankyou TF76

You can try the WPW member cbp . He might be able to help you, since he's a DMOZ editor. If he hasn't already read your thread, try asking him.

Generally, you can't ask to have a site removed from DMOZ. If a site adds value to a category, it will remain listed. Also, an editor has no way to verify that a site owner really owns a site that they are asking to be removed, redirected, or etc .

HOWEVER, in your case its straight forward. Both sites are listed in the same cateory which they should not have been. Suggest you go to the category that http://www.users.tpg.com.au/tf76/ is in and click the update URL and simply state the site is gone - it should get deleted soon (it will be deleted soon anyway when an edior notices it).

The site in your signature is listed (MOD HAT ON: I have also deleted your signature as there is a rule about images in signature - suggest you change it)
