So, even when you pay your 200 euro, you're still not guaranteed to get in? Hmmm, that's a different proposition.

So, you won't get much traffic directly from the directory then. So, what do you get and why is a place there prized? Is it because they publish the links to their partners and therefore your backlink count can rise exponentially, thereby affecting your page rank and position on the SERP's? Does it help with your position in Yahoo's (and partners) organic search results? My site is targetted at Ireland only though. Will it help me here?

I'd consider it if I was guaranteed a large increase in visitors.

Thanks,
