    My DSL is down so I'm checking my email on my free Netzero dial-up account.

    To check what's happening at degreeinfo, I type that into the search engine "powered by Yahoo". Besides the listings marked "Ads by Yahoo", the leading results were also basically ads:

    In fact, "degreeinfo.com" wasn't even among the first 100 results, although several of the results did refer to it.

    Pretty much shows why Google has replaced the Yahoo search engine in public acceptance.

    If it's Yahoo directory search, it's possible we never submitted. I believe that Yahoo is charging $300 or something to be *considered* to be included in their directory list. We never bothered, but perhaps I should look into it again.

    However, I happen to agree with you about Google ;)

    These are results from the "regular" Yahoo search. One does NOT have to pay to be included (I test searched several sites I know did not pay.

    My guess is that even the regular yahoo search puts paying sites ahead of non-paying ones in search order.
