I am ready to enrole for a Yahoo listing

What percentage of search engine visitors to expect?

[vitaplease]

I am finally ready to give a go at a paid Yahoo listing.

I find it an expensive Pagerank link to buy so I am also considering the visitors I might get :)

1. Can anyone give me some data on what percentage of "search engine" referals to expect from a Yahoo 299$ listing for a site that is already well positioned in Google with about 250 english pages? (that is a pure directory listing not Yahoogle results).

At the moment we get about 72% of search engine referals through Google
and 8% through the Google partners including Yahoogle.
The site is oriented towards tecnical people in the industry.

I was wondering what "extra" in visitors to expect with a single Yahoo listing given the above mentioned trafic, as I was wondering that the more pages a site has, the smaller the benefit of a Yahoo directory listing would be.

2. Is it easy to ask for a listing for a more inward but topical page?
(I want to benefit of the often mentioned frequent spidering a Yahoo listing of a high Pageranked category page might get for a page not benefiting from that luxery through a DMOZ listing).

3. If I like the extra traffic and its ROI, how easy is it to buy another 10 listings for other inward topical pages within the same site?

thanks for your input.

This is the traffic for one of my clients that has both a Looksmart & Yahoo paid listing

Google 62%
MSN 21%
Yahoo 7.54%
+ others

I'm surprised the site doesn’t get more from Yahoo as the site is listed well, just goes to show Google is king of the net & it's really just the PR your buying, with a bit of traffic thrown in

On one of my sites Yahoo gets around 50% and Google around 30%. It is ranked better than Google though. On one keyword where they rankings are identical Google is generating about 25% more traffic.

This all depends on the subject of the site. Yahoo will out produce Google by a margin of 2:1 for some subjects.
Sub pages are easy to get listed (paid). I can't find a thread but, I think you can get a subpage listed before the main index page (can't find thread, anyone?). Yahoo wants your money!
Title= Keywords
Desc.= Keywords, hard to get. If the site stands out the editor will give you KWs in the description.
Cat= Highest PR you can get, but does not matter for ranking in the serps.
