Default A link in Yahoo Directory - Is it worth it?

Hi

Is it worth spending $300 for a link in Yahoo? I would not spend this kind of money for a link.

There are people who have submitted a link and they link has been rejected and not given a refund

No actually i prefer to buy few other quality links rather than $300 for a link in Yahoo. Its just my thinking.

DON.

I agree with you. I would also spend the money on other quality links on other sites

And wasn't it $300 a year, not the permanent listing?

Well, even if is a quality link on yahoo, you can get other links on good quality also for small prices.

The only thing is that Google can penalise some sites with paid links, whereas they won`t penalise Yahoo. And possibly Yahoo will get at least some additional traffic for the money. Not that I`d consider paying that sort of money out to be in their Directory.
