Do I get more pages crawled faster if I use Yahoo directory submission compared to Yahoo search submission?

If yes, what kind of difference can I expect? 50%?

I have a large Web site and want Yahoo to index as many pages as possible as fast as possible.



Yahoo Directory Submit ($299):

Search Submit Basic ($49 per URL): http://searchmarketing.yahoo.com/srchsb/ssb_hiw.php)



Free submission: https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/submit



The pages content changes weekly so I need fast crawling. The changes are not too big, though.

No, the quickest way to get indexed with any of the search engines is to write an article or two about your website or your websites content and submit it to many of the article directories out there on the web with Google PR 3 or greater. You will be indexed within several days by doing this and it cost you nothing.

First the $299.00 cost for the Yahoo! directory doesn't mean you'll get added, that is the cost for quick review of your website and doesn't mean you'll get added to the directory.

You don't need to pay to get your site submitted to search engines, just build backlinks and crawlers will find your website on their own. Provide an XML sitemap and proper robots.txt file can help you have a proper and efficient indexed website.

Remember, backlinks, backlinks and more backlinks are your ultimate goal after all on-page search engine optimization has been complete.
