I just realized that there is a good site that added a link to my site. Can I add their front page to site match. What are the ramifications of doing this besides the fact that I have to pay money? It is worth it to me to have Yahoo spider it and consider the outgoing links so my site does better.

Adding the site using Site Match wouldn't help you get spidered. With Site match only the submitted page is considered for inclusion. You could use the free AddURL to add the site, as AddURL will use the page as a "starting point". You should use your best judgment about linking back to the site. The best rule of thumb is, if it would be good for site visitors, it won't harm your ranking in the serps.
