I see Yahoo allows you to submit your company to their database. You add your company name, phone number, website, address, etc. I was wondering if this was helpful for any one else's business & if doing so helps at all with SEO/backlinks?
Yahoo Search features also support priority local business search. Directory submit of your company details help you to find locally.
I think yahoo directory can help in getting a quality backlink and some traffic but its too expansive for me.
To local search yahoo local listing, yahoo map best way. i did not submit my website in yahoo directory but automatically yahoo directory showing while search.
Yes you are right that yahoo directory can help in getting a quality backlink and some traffic but its too expansive for me
Ya its important in my view to add your business in local business directory as its give you prior in search as per your business location and nowadays people used to search by business directory for the service that they like to hire.
I agree with others - it's just like a very expensive backlink. I really doubt that it can drive significant traffic to your site.
If you want your site to be in dmoz and you find unable to get it, Y! dir is the next best option for you. Its expensive but worth it, not more than but nearly authoritative to dmoz , buy the inclusion after you have exhausted all of your seo resources.
Its another way to help you get backlinks. Submitting your articles on yahoo directory helps you get quality backlinks too
