---- I Can't Seem to Rank in the Top 10 in Yahoo

I rank in Google and MSN in the top 10 for almost every page on my site. I've been stressing out because no matter what I do I can't seem to rank in the top 10 in Yahoo, no matter how good or relevant my site seems to be.

Yahoo is just impossible to figure out. No matter what I do, I can't seem to get pages in the top 10. I even have my site in the Yahoo Directory, but that's done nothing for me, and generates zero leads. Plus, changing my site too much is dangerous. What if it hurts my Google ranking?

The only option I seem to have now is to pay Yahoo to get in the top 10. Do you think that will work? Has anyone had experience with this? I shutter to try it because just the thought of paying for results seems twisted and wrong.

The thing that really bothers me about Yahoo is that it will rank 5-6 very similar pages from the SAME site in the top 10, leaving no room for any competition or more relevant results. I have two competitors that have pages that take up every slot 1-10 for a keyword. On the other hand, Google will only rank the top 1 or 2 best pages for a keyword from a site, and it's results are 100x more relevant and focused than Yahoo.
