    How long (business days) does it take "normally" to get listed in the Y! directory? (in regards to commercial paid listings)

    Nobody here ever submitted to Y! directory and thus can't share an answer? I highly doubt that! Come on, share and care!! ;)

    When I first started promoting my wife's site, I submitted to Yahoo (back when it was always free) I think it took just over 6 weeks to get listed in the directory. As for list time now, I couldn't hazard a guess. If you are paying the $299 a year, I imagine it would be a lot shorter than 6 weeks----but I could be wrong. I would try the free submit first and see if you get lucky.

    Just an update.

    So far, 7 days have passed since I submitted for a "commercial lisiting" in the US Y!, and still no sign of a "ya" or "na".
