Why did Yahoo! add me to the directory without a request?
Hi,

This is my 1st post and I got a question about the Yahoo! directory.

I run the Twin Towers memorial website @ Twin-Towers.net

Last Week Yahoo Added me to the directory for the MOAB BOMB

http://dir.yahoo.com/Government/Military/Weapons_and_Equipment/Massive_Ordnance_Air_Burst__MOAB_/

http://www.twin-towers.net/moab_bomb.htm

I didn't request to be added to that category .

Any ideas on how I got listed?

How DARE they send me 500 Visitors per day from that category!

Has this happened to anyone else?

Sometimes Yahoo! add some of my new sections or individual pages (good content only) to his directory and I only can say thanks!

You guys sucked me in, so I decided to register.

Blake brought up a good point.

Why did Yahoo! add me to the directory with all the hidden text at the bottom of the page?

As for the text, it's just somthing I've been playing around with.
