    I have the same problem, I think slurp is stupid crawling bot. On some sites it comes too often and crawls too much.. while on others it does the opposite.

    If you have some money try Yahoo's Site Match. Or whatever they call it now. Seems like money talks with Yahoo.

    Gazelle is right, money talks with Yahoo. Getting in their directory helps a lot too. Your site will get indexed eventually, it just takes a loonnnnggg time with Yahoo. $Fortunately$ there are $ways$ you can speed it up ;)

    Lots of links from sites with high link pop helps too, of course.

    Thanks. I am checking out the site match right now... might be worth the investment... still peeved that Yahoo has the nerve to charge for indexing (with blatantly retarded bots like theirs, it's the only way to get listed anytime soon)

    Almost makes me want to boycott Yahoo, except I'd only be hurting myself :(

    You can do site match for a year and then cancel, if you wish.
