HQ,

When it comes to link popularity, certain SE's priviledge directory listings. So for example, if Google sees that an FFA is linking to your site, it will give 1 point for link popularity. However, if Google sees that DMOZ is linking to your site, it will give 100 points. In other words, when it comes to link popularity, a DMOZ listing is worth the value of 100 ordinary links to your site. This weighting of course varies depending on the SE. So it is false to say that a DMOZ listing only helps you with the SEs that pick up DMOZ's RDF dump.
