Bill Flanders <whflanders_at_mail.utexas.edu> asked:

> How many months should it take to get a site on Yahoo?

Yahoo! is not on vacation, but one wonders what mysterious
quality it is that deems a site worthy in the Yahoolian
Eyes.

I've been submitting http://www.provenedge.com/ to Yahoo!
since February of this year (for a total of four
submissions). It's a legitimate business site promoting
software for managing the small/home office -- Proven Edge
has been reviewed in numerous magazines, including Home
Office Computing and Computer Reseller News. But we can't
get listed in Yahoo!

On the other hand, my personal <blush>vanity</blush> web
site (http://www.wockyjivvy.com) was submitted (by me) in
August and was included within TWO weeks -- complete with an
honest-to-gosh personalized confirmation in my e-mail. I
mean, I know I'm a <blatant brag> good graphic artist/poet,
</blatant brag> but entry into Yahoo!? and so fast? It was
more than I dreamed.

During August, http://www.searchenginewatch.com/ ran a
survey where people were asked to submit information about
their experiences with Yahoo! The results from that survey
will be available at searchenginewatch.com sometime in early
September. Perhaps we'll learn something...
