Everyone know's that yahoo is one of the biggest company like Goolge, or Microsoft, but why Yahoo charge fees on registering any website on Yahoo Search Engine/ Web directory? but in paradox Google do not charge any sort fees regarding registering a site on it. So my question is that why Yahoo charge..? some extra fees? i don't understand y?
Yahoo don't charge any fees for submitting websites in their search engines however they do charge for submitting in their directory . I believe Google don't have a directory they just use Dmoz
It is only the Yahoo directory they charge for although i suspect many people would prefer if that was free.
Yahoo DO have a paid submission service http://searchmarketing.yahoo.com/srchsb/ssb.php but it's not compulsory to be listed in yahoo - it's a sort of fast-track service, to get indexed quickly and updated frequently.
I think many people here remember that yahoo was the first one service that allowed visitors to search sites. I think they did'n changed paid subscription model for last 10 years but this allow to block spam sites
