If you are accepted in Yahoo UK or Yahoo.com you will appear on all English Yahoos worldwide. You do not have to submit to each one separately.

does submission to multiple directories in yahoo ensure that you get better rankings? for eg. if you submit your page under both business marketing and internet marketing then would you get a higher ranking when someone searched on internet marketing?
does it make sense to submit differnet pages of your portal under differnet directories of yahoo?

It wouldn't get listed twice, so don't waste the submission money.

submitting to .co.uk is cheaper and is only a one-off fee :)

Yahoo Asia still offers the option of using Standard Submit for commercial categories.

>>so i get listed in singapore directories and india as wel?

Usually the following:

Yahoo
Yahoo Austaralia and NZ
Yahoo Asia
Yahoo Canada
Yahoo Hong Kong (for English users)
Yahoo India
Yahoo UK and Ireland

Yahoo Singapore seems to have a different directory structure for the categories that I'm familiar with.

my issue was not if it will get listed twice or not.
If I have 2 pages like :
/internetmarketing/emailmarketing.thml
/hrd/hrdindia.html

should I submit the first url under business marketing ( as well as internet marketing)
and the next url under HRD organsiations?
