Yahoo!
is one of the oldest web directories and portals on the Internet
today, and the site went live in August of 1994. Yahoo! is a 100%
human edited directory, and provides secondary search results using
Google.
Yahoo! is also one of the largest
traffic generators around, as far as web directories and search
engines go. Unfortunately, however, it is also one of the most difficult
to get listed in, unless of course you pay to submit your site.
Even if you pay ( $199 USD as of this writing ) it doesn't guarentee
you will get listed.
Either way, if you suggest a URL,
it is "reviewed" by a Yahoo! editor, and if approved will
appear in the next index update.
There are no "secrets"
to getting listed quickly. However, it is recommended you have a
good, clean, unique site, that isn't adult related ( Yahoo! doesn't
take adult sites ). When suggesting a URL, fill out ALL fields correctly,
and try to suggest the URL to the best category you can find.
It can take anywhere from 1 day
to 3 months or more sometimes, before a Yahoo! editor will visit
your site to review it...thats if you don't pay the money...otherwise
if you pay, its around 7 days or so.
