    Just like DMOZ it is going to take a LONG time to be considered for inclusion.

    Do you have a lot of incoming links to your site already?

    Are you listed in DMOZ yet?

    Etc..

    Go look around for articles on Yahoo Inclusion and other forums to see how long it normally takes and what the best ways are to optimize your site.

    I have a few articles on my site to get you started:

    If you pay the $299 then you can get in very quickly.

    Or spend a little time researching and you can spend that money on more useful marketing ventures. =)

    I have seen mixed opinions on that value of the Yahoo directory. My opinion is that Yahoo directory benfits by giving you an inbound link, giving you referrals, and giving you a boost in your positions in Yahoo. If it fits in the budget than I say pay it.
