    Hm... I don't know about a fee, but...

    IMO this tool just check if you are in Yahoo! Dir or not and doesn't calculate anything if your site need to be signed. Hope you understand what I mean. :)

    What kind of a boost are we talking about here? I've thought of doing this but I've always wondered if its worth it.

    In the past, I think it helped one of our site's rankings in Yahoo quite a bit. Google mentions the yahoo directory as a good place to get a link so it is a trusted link in Google's eyes and can definitely give you a boost in Google, help you get out of the sandbox or give you more Trust Rank if you need it because it is an editorially-reviewed link which Google loves.

    IMHO if you have the money the Yahoo Dir is a good way to spend it.

    It really depends

    I can tell you that we have a PR6 e-commerce site in addition to a few other sites and paying the $299 resulted in no increase in traffic at all from Yahoo

    But it is a good quality link, so if you have the budget and are looking into it I would strongly consider it

    it depends. some featured submission cost money and provide better search results. on the other hand, there are free submissions. for the different versions of submission, check out this page http://search.yahoo.com/info/submit.html
