    I submitted 1 site on the 29/11 in Y! directory. Now it is 7 days and still no response. Should I worry? The listing is still tagged pending review but they said I will get a response within 7 days!!

    That's what I did, They claim that they review the listings in the business section within 7 days, they still didn't, well few more hours to go.
    PS: Another listing was approved in that time frame, I hope I won't be getting a rejection for this one!! that's 300 bucks!

    I've heard cases when it took longer...anyway...it's pretty lame for someone as big as yahoo to take so much time for reviewing a damn link

    It's 7 business days and not calendar days, depending the time of day you submitted it may not have been received until the following day.

    I'd give it a day or 2 and if you don't hear anything, try contacting them at:

    I'm worried about the same thing, today makes the 7th business day and I have not heard a thing about my listing that I already paid for.

    I got an answer saying they my site was approved and will be included in the directory in 2-4 days.
    good! (this is a semipenalized site in google, I hope these links from the yahoo directory and couple more others valuable links will help it recover)
