Should I pay to be in the Yahoo! Directory or whatever it is now?
-
I've been trying to find a definite answer and have had no luck. The $300 a myear isn't an issue, but if being in the directory ads no value I'd just as well keep that money.

Hey Saddat,
That's a different question. I suggest you either search the Q&A to see if it has already been answered (and I believe it has), or post it as a new question. You'll get more attention that way.

Is there a list of Directories that are free for UK, that Google considers important?
I am looking for a comprehensive list of directories (if there is one).
My website is real estate related.
Many thanks,

Thanks, Donna!

You should definitely cancel it Andrew. It's not worth it. And not easy to cancel. Go to Yahoo help and type SLN14163 in the search window to be taken to a page with cancellation instructions. Intuitive right?

Hi Patrick,
Thanks for the response. Do you have any thoughts on the 'new version'? as I'm still paying for it.
Cheers,

Yes Patric is absolutely right Yahoo! directory closed.

Hi there
I believe Yahoo! Directory closed, did it not?

I would think there would be no SEO value in it. Google frowns upon paid links so I am sure they treat that directory accordingly. As far as click through value I do not know.

No links from Pinterest, wordpress, yahoo, etc.
I'm new to moz and trying to go through some of the tools. I was looking at the link analysis and I had a couple questions I don't see any links from good sites that do show up in my webmaster tools - wordpress, yahoo, pinterest. Just a bunch of spammy sites that I've been trying to shake off for years now and even though we've completely redesigned the entire site they're still there. I have 21 links from my own domain. How do I fix that?

Not sure about reputable direcotries like Yahoo
Hey guys, Here's the deal. I know that Google is fighting private blog netowrks and directories. That said, does it also mean that it does not make any sense to buy listings on directories like dir.yahoo.com ? Thanks in advance.

Listings, paid profiles and directories
Hi, In the industry I am working in (education), we do have a lot of portals offering paid listings (for example profiles featuring a school, the courses you offer, sometimes with reviews etc). Almost all big competitors and big names normally do have these kind of listings. Besides from having to decide if these sites really bring the relevant conversions, I am wondering about their impact on SEO. An example for an offer:
Link Building | | ecnic
Our Top Picks listing is a 40 word listing and logo we put on any 30 pages of our web site, example.com for 12 months, for $595 US. You can choose the pages you want, or we can put you on all our [category] pages, or certain continents/countries you want to target. Now, I am wondering: Do I have to worry about my linking profile ? (All of sudden a bunch of links with the exact same anchortext and content embedding to our site?) Or can I just decide to go with a paid listing based on the link value the page offers me? Looking forward to reading what you think!

Is it really worth it to submit to Yahoo Directory for $300 per year?
The fee does not even guarantee inclusion - and if you are accepted, does that link really add enough value to justify paying an annual $300 fee?
