    I was checking my referal stats for a website earlier and noticed i had top 1-3 rankings for some subpages on the blog. Before i was nowhere to be seen, and just found my index page #98 on, which shocked me as i never get traffic from Yahoo...

    Any ideas how i can improve my index rankings?

    Yahoo directory is free for all non-commercial websites. But there is no guarantee when the website will be included in the directory if it ever will...

    If you pay, it usually takes about a week before they list you...

    6 months ago, when I did a test for Yahoo!, it was all about one-way links. Directory submissions worked wonders. Spent $2k and got a couple hundred directory links. Few weeks later I was #1-3 for target keyword.

    My assessment: More one-way links you have, the better your rankings will be...and stay...in Y!.
