Never End A URL With A Slash
Although I can’t post any real hard proof of this I have sites that use both a trailing slash and those that don’t and those that don’t definitely get more traffic.
For some odd reason, which may be fixed or changed at any time, Google loves urls that have zero trailing slash.
So use mod_rewrite in all its glory and configure all your plugins to avoid this and enjoy more traffic!
Even if you don’t see any improvement there’s no harm done so give it a try.
If you have no idea what I’m talking about here is what I mean:
No trailing slash = Good

Trailing slash = Bad

Permanent Yahoo Directory Listing For The Cost Of One Year
First off you must have a decent non-spammy site that you wish to submit.
You want it to have a good chance of being accepted into the directory so that you’re not just wasting time and money.
Once you have your site ready to be submitted head on over to Yahoo and submit it:
https://ecom.yahoo.com/dir/submit/intro
Next note the credit card you used.
Once you’ve confirmed the charge from Yahoo has been made either report that card stolen or cancel it completely.
When billing time rolls around a year later Yahoo will not contact you in any way and your listing will stay put!
I have done this successfully with two sites, one of which has stayed listed for the past 3 years without any billing notice.
It seems that once you’re in and Yahoo likes your site you’re home free. That up front fee seems to just be a processing fee, that is unless you let them charge you over and over again.
