Stocking up on Inktomi submissions

is it worth it?

[ravishingr]

I have a series of websites, and while we primarily use google to generate traffic, a fair amount of our traffic comes from google results on yahoo. We have paid for inktomi submission here and there in the past, but with Yahoo about to change how they operate, do you think it's worthwhile to do a massive paid inclusion operation on inktomi before the switch?

Welcome to WebmasterWorld, ravishingr!

I've said this in the past and I'll say it again : paid inclusion isn't for everyone. It depends on the scale of your site.

thanks for the reply panic. We have a series of sites that generate leads for affiliates. no real products though, more broad catagories.

Here's another question, it seems to me that .edu's are given preferential treatment in google these days. Does inktomi seem to do the same thing. Thanks.
