About 3 years ago I paid the $299 to get into the Yahoo directory. In Yahoo search the result for the my home page is the yahoo directory listing which was great until I stopped paying the $299 1 year ago.

Now rankings are dropping and I can't get Yahoo to index my actual site and stop looking at my directory listing.

any thoughts on this?
