Two how competitive is your market? How competitive are your head terms? If you can't rank organically well for head terms how is your long tail SEO? All of these questions will better determine where to send/spend your $$$. If you rank #1 for your head terms then maybe the Yahoo! Dir isn't for you--try some of the other (cheaper) directories I have pointed out. I will say that using good link juice is one very powerful SEO tool but the true worth depends on how competitive the market is and how well your site is optimized. Berto at PricePlow

Directory. If my initial marketing budget is $2000 (then many of the profits will go back into the budget), is it worth it? I know my site is an SEO nightmare... an optimized version is coming soon, and when I launch that, I'm wondering if it's worth spending 15% of the budget on this. My guess is no, not at this time.
