Does anyone have a rough idea of how long it takes:

a) from using the free addurl
and
b) from being crawled

to appear in the yahoo index?

I submitted my site about a month ago, have started to see yahoo slurp in the last week or two, but have yet to see our site appear in the serps. Does yahoo add sites on a rolling basis or only at specific updates?

Also, the yahoo bot has only been taking robots.txt and the index page. Is this normal?

Cheers

To get crawled it take about 4 or more weeks, but if you have sites that link to you it will speed it up. To get listed it should take about two days after being crawled, but could take longer.
