The Yahoo! Directory is a web directory which rivals the Open Directory Project in size. The directory was Yahoo!'s first offering. When Yahoo! changed to crawler-based listings for its main results in October 2002, the human-edited directory's significance dropped, but it is still being updated. The Yahoo! Directory offers two options for suggesting websites for possible listing: "Standard", which is free, [http://add.yahoo.com/fast/add How do I add my web site to the Yahoo! Directory?] , Yahoo! website, accessed January 30, 2008] and a paid submission process that offers expedited review. [ [https://ecom.yahoo.com/dir/submit/intro/ Yahoo! Directory Submit] , Yahoo! website, accessed January 30, 2008] Payment is required when suggesting a commercial site.

Yahoo! provides both a search engine and a directory service, and the directory is searchable separately from the rest of their search engine results.
