Yahoo Directory - Is it worth $300 ?

Discussion in 'Directories' started by coupontohost, Oct 7, 2008.

    I recently read a great article on directories by SEObook. They named all of the top directories and I think yahoo's directory was just under Dmoz in the top of the list.

    Do you think the backlink and listing is worth the $300? Some say their rankings increase dramatically after listing. What do you think?

    LOL... I read the title and thought... Ummm, sure, but would they sell Yahoo for that?

    Look at the bottom of this page for similar threads. Read a few of the responses of those and the other 10 or 20 not listed, and holler if there's a need for a new round. That's why we have a forum search feature.

    I think it's worth $300, because it's the best paid directory.

    I don't think it's worth $300. It's probably worth $100...but not much more. There are other directories out there that will give you more link juice for the money. However, you might get 3 or 4 hits to your site a month from Yahoo for the money. You can get 30 or 40 hits a month from a good reciprocal link or from a niche directory.
