How could I check if my site is added in Yahoo directory?

[Eli]

I delivered my web to yahoo some months ago. Now when I put my address in yahoo, I can see my site in the web search result but not availabe if I swift to the directory result.

Does that mean mine has not been added or the reverse? I have no idea.

Thanks in advance for any opinions.

Just watch the category you submitted to - how many days ago was it?

[Eli]

More than half a year at least.

If it was a paid listing send them an email and complain - if it was a free suggested site, keep waiting and don't hold your breath.

Start getting backlinks (preferably good ones) and it will get indexed. I have yet to pay to be included in Yahoo.

Thanks. But could you describe more how to get useful backlinks?

Do a search for whatever you sell or want to rank high for +add url. That is always a good start.

Then, check and see who is backlinking to your competitors, if those sites have an add url option, you should be on their too.

Keep searching this forum, there are a lot better ones than the two I just gave you ;)
