Yahoo Directory Listing Free?
Has anyone ever seen one of your commercial sites show up in a commercial category and you never even submitted it?
I had one listed there yesterday. I never submitted it. Trying to figure out how that happened??

One possibility might be that I remember something about the Yahoo Asia had free submissions, and if it was accepted there it showed in the normal dir too...but I could be wrong.

Hmm I didn't know that. But I didn't submit it, it is a webstore, and it only takes US orders. So I would think it would be strange for it to be accepted in the Asia directory.
Also the URL is so long, I don't think it could be someone else submitted and made a typo.
Not that I mind a free listing there.

The site is two weeks old.
You didn't submit it.
And now it's in the Yahoo! Directory?
MADNESS!
Are you sure nobody else submitted it? Maybe you were tipsy one night, submitted it but don't remember doing so?
