    Today, I saw thousands of yahoo directory listing in my tool bar, So I check the real result & got shocked to see it.
    This site (Reliable-Seoservices.com) has not a single listing in Y direcotry but today it is showing listed even for inner pages.. Is yahoo showing its dir. result from its web result.. Hope they will soon re-correct it.

    See the listing for Reliable-Seoservices.com ( Hope, Soo yahoo will take care of it)

    I get the following:

    No Directory Search results were found.
    Showing Web Search results for the term Reliable-Seoservices.com:


    They have not found any matches in the directory so they are showing search engine results.

    May be, but the web result is different from what they show in dir. search...You can see in the Image that nowhere it is written "related web result" or "No Directory Search results were found.".. I don't know what they are doing... also, see there is no directory name listed... FUnny :)
    It is never listed in yahoo directory, but the result is given above... this is not the only url, I check for other url too, they all are showing smilar result.

    They might soon remove it... I just share what I saw today.

    My site comes up even though I've never submitted (or it was so long ago that I've forgotten) and certainly never submitted the two subdomains that are newer.

    At first I thought it was because they'd disabled the "and listing is approved" check from the sql query.

    You did happen to notice that the "Category" location below the so called "listing" is blank didn't you? That means it's not in any categories = not listed.

    Most likely a temporary glitch/error. Nothing to get excited about. ;)

    Well, I am only seeing seeing search results and nothing from Yahoo Directory. I also believe it is a temporary glitch/error.

    I figured the lack of category meant it was unapproved.
