Hi German_SEO. Welcome to WebmasterWorld.

Could you be a bit more specific?
What do you mean by selling?

I've certainly not heard anything like this - are you thinking of the Yahoo.com and Overture deal?

Hello
A spokeswoman of Yahoo.de stated yesterday towards WebmasterWorld that the deal with Overture exclusively covers Yahoo.com. There are no plans at the present for paid listings on Yahoo.de, she said.

There is no reason why they shouldn't go the same way also in Germany and in the other countries. Maybe they won't have Overture as a partner for these countries but local companies.

People in Germany have the same point of view:

While itīs likely to happen there are no plans on behalf of paid listings on Yahoo.de at the time being. This was confirmed by Yahoo.de.
The issue is covered also in this thread
