Getting into yahoo directory without paying.

Is it possible?

 

I don't think so

 

Yes, it's possible for non commercial websites. I got one in a couple days back.

 

how? Where's the link?

 

they occasionally add websites manually. What the criteria is and why I do not know.

 

Probably possible. But I've been trying for two years, and mine is a ".org" website that is 100% nonprofit. No success with Yahoo to date.

I just resubmitted today, so here's hoping.

 

Yeah, they just pick some at random it seems.

 

One of my sites is the directory and I did it for free but that was many moons ago when it was free for everyone. I've never heard of anyone else getting in for free except for non-profit sites.

 

I didn't think so until I got a site listed around about the same time as the recent Yahoo SERP update.

 

I have a client who claims they got in for free.

 

Non-commercial sites usually get in within a week.

It's a crap shoot for commercial sites unless you pay.

 

For me, sadly, it hasn't seemed to work that way. DMOZ accepted my website very early on. But I've tried multiple times for the free, noncommercial acceptance into Yahoo, but still with no success.

 

You mean websites with adsense ain't allowed as well?
Thanks anyway

 

Do you guys think its worth paying to get in?

whats the link again and price???

Cheers.

 

IMO if your website is based on a good concept, or maybe if you have the service that people will use, then its worth it

 

definately worth it. Its $299 for a year and it is a quality and trusted directory and they list you in multiple categories. Often on PR5 pages.

 

Not true. My content based adsense site was freely accepted.

 

Thanks My site is also Non Profit in that case

 

Does anyone have the link to submit non-commercial link to yahoo directory? Everything i'm finding is trying to get you to sign up for the $300 service.

 

Next to the $300 box there's another box:
