Site is slowly dropping in Google ranks, how much will a Yahoo directory listing help

    I have a site that jumped out of the sandbox after being there for a little over a year (throughout most of the first 8 months of the sites life I spent a lot of time and effort developing incoming links).

    The site has been ranking well ever since it escaped the sandbox (that being the past 3 or 4 months) for a set of very popular keywords.

    It was on the first page for around a month, it then dropped to the second page and stayed in 15th place for awhile, it has just recently dropped to the 3rd page/ 24th result.

    Ok, with all that being said, how much should I expect a paid Yahoo Directory listing help the site as far as raising it's rank?

    I haven't seen any improvement in ranking when I bought one.
    just my experience.
