Do you pay or not?

Do you need to pay to get into ask jeeves?
I have a listing on a pr6 page and I didnt pay, on their web results (just below sponsored listings)

Does that mean I get an inbounbd link to my site of pr6?

If you want to get into Ask Jeeves quickly, than Flat Fee PFI is an option.

You can always get in free if you have the time and patience.

Ask Jeeves ceased Trusted Feed in March of 2004 and will be ceasing Flat Fee PFI on September 30th. So if you are going to do PFI, then you will need to do it before then.

Feel free to sticky me if you want more details.

tried both methods, personally i prefer the non-paying method so that i can spend the cash on other things.

I think it depends on how important you view teoma, and your site's niche to make money from it.

Doesn't paying for google ads get you on ask?

Bek.

Paying for adwords gets you displayed on the ask.com site but doesn't include you in the Teoma search results. The two are totally different.

I prefer to wait and let them find me. AJ doesn't drive enough traffic at the moment (in my sectors anyway) to make it worth my time foremost and my money secondly, to submit to them via PFI. With ten-fourteen sponsored results on top, even a #1 in the free index puts you at #11-#15 in actuality. It actually drives some pretty decent results, but unfortunately, it is cluttered with a lot of "pay the bills" function.
