My site has fairly good placement for its main keyword, but the description in Yahoo is 5 years out of date.
I just want to update two numbers (age of my study and number of items I worked on).

1) How exactly do I make these changes.
2) Is there any risk to this? I would rather have outdated info than none at all.

Try [add.yahoo.com...]

I'm not aware of any "risks" in submitting an update request.

>>any risk

Sounds like you're talking about a non-comm site. If so, I would submit the changes. If you have a commercial site grandfathered in the directory (free), I'd leave it alone.

Hi Skipfactor: My site is non-commercial.
Still, I'd really hate to lose my Yahoo directory listing.
I get good Y traffic and want people to see my work.
I'll check out the Yahoo URL given, and give it a try.

Thanks all! -Larry
