Hi All

I took me a bunch of times for it to take but it will work if you keep trying. It beats paying the 300 bucksLife is Good,OleTom

They all used to be free to submit years ago. Yahoo recently though didn't allow free submissions to the commercial directory.

You must remember that Yahoo, like most of the directories these days, blend search engine results and directory listings. Yahoo was using google for search engine results up until recently. Now it has gone off on its own. I has bought several search engines. It don't know which because I don't follow SEO much.

How long will it usually take for Yahoo to crawl the site? Any experience?

Yahoo is doing it. MSN is doing it. Everyone else will soon follow.

Yahoo also is now offering paid inclusion into this same database that their crawler is filling, through what they're calling "Site Match." You pay per url (similar to what Inktomi and AltaVista have offered) but also a per-click price.
