how much traffic from directory listing?

[max363]

I am considering paying $299 to get listed in the Yahoo directory, but before I do I would like to know how much traffic I will recieve. The page is 5 levels deep and has hundreds of other sites listed too. Does anyone know?

Hi Max,

Personally, I haven't been submitting to Yahoo. For a listing in a deep category with tons of other sites listed, you may find it difficult to get a return on your investment.

Many people have different opinions, but personally, I think the only way you should submit is if you can get traffic from people going through the category search, or if your site ranks on the SERP's.

Good luck.
