Default Yahoo Directory VS 8k Directory Submissions
I've been having a serious dilemma trying to figure out how to spend my advertising budget. Like most people I haven't got a large budget so I am trying to figure out where to spend it to get the biggest impact. I found this company that will submit my website to 8,000 directories for $250, I tried it with 1,450 Directories on another website, but I am not getting a lot of traffic. Should I just spend the $299 to get this new website into the Yahoo Directory. What's your experience?

I think a Yahoo directory listing is worth it but you wont see results in SERPs for a good while.

Personally, I would take that $250 and spend it on creating content or tools that people will link to naturally.
