They will charge, infoserve are paid listings in Yahoo local.

What is it you are trying to do??

I have a Google Local Business/Maps listing - and I want to be able to do the same in Yahoo. I know Yahoo have it but can't seem to submit a company with UK address. I can't believe Yahoo is so frustrating. No wonder Google is so popular.

Yes I tried very hard to do the same and kept coming up with the paid listing from infoserve. I gave up in the end, came to the conclusion that only paid for listing are available. If ever you do solve this, let us know.

I tried it a while ago.

A few days later Yahoo sales team telephoned me to get my details. From memory it was about £200 for the Google local/map equivalent :eek:...........I didn't bother.

Don't blame you. We seem to get higher listing on Yahoo than Google - so I thought Yahoo Local Business listing would help it more. But I wouldn't pay, especially since Google have something like 90% of the market and give it away FREE.

I'd imagine (like all General dirs) its used by kids, and that's the traffic you'll get from it. But I heard the link value is ok.

Ultimately you wont know until you use it - and that's guaranteed :D

Its a $69 Review Fee and Yearly Review (Annual payment)

Yes - I guess taking the plunge is the only way to know for sure. :eek:

I saw that the government lists heavily on ezilon so they can't be cowboys.

I am not worried about the traffic from the directory, just the link juice. :)

We got picked up/listed for free, so I'm unsure if a paid option exists - I dunno.

I don't think you'll get much from it, as everyone uses Yahoo's main search. You're better off searching for related website paid links, than mess about trying to get free links.

Websites know the value of what they have, and so aren't going to give it away for nothing.
