Yahoo Time

I know it's hard to get into Yahoo through regular submission without paying, but in general how long does it take to get in through that method. Averages, and personal experiences are welcomed.

Mike. 16 days to get into the Yahoo! directory without paying.

Wow, thats phenomenal!

It took me a year and a half to get a site in and that was only after I went via a Yahoo! back door!

Is anyone experiencing this type of express reviewing without paying?

I am about to fork out the $199 for a client in the next couple of days.

[Mike_Mackin]

No.

We paid the $199

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Here is what I've used in the past with good success.

Submit - wait 4 weeks
submit again - wait 4 weeks
email URL support and ask if there is anything I can do to the site to make it better (blah, blah...), being polite of course
2 weeks later you're in.

I was using this about 4-5 months ago and was 4 for 4 on it, don't know if this works now or not.
