A Yahoo listing carries more weight (for search ranking purposes) than links from most other sites. Yahoo costs $300 a year, so cost is a big part of the equation.

Yeap. That is also not refundable if your site is not approved by them. Definetly it is weightful link to have, and it will make changes in your SERPs. But the Big question is, is it worth for 300$. A 300$ question.

I agree. $300 can buy alot of links, Yahoo is just a directory. For that much money you could buy relevant links from high PR sites that would improve your SERP's alot more than one link on Yahoo ever could. I think yahoo fools alot of people into believing that having your link on their directory is worth more than any other directory. Maybe this is true, but how much more important is Yahoo than any free PR6-7 directory?
