I signed up for Yahoo Publisher Network

How long will I have to wait to get confirmation?

I've been waiting several months already :|

maybe I missed an email though

I have just signed up. Will keep you updated

It took me a few weeks if I recall correctly.

Same here Bama. It only took a few weeks, but we have been with yahoo for about a year now.

I got my acceptance today. So far I haven't been very pleased with the quality of ads. That don't seem to match up with my content very well. I assume that it will get better later.

It does take yahoo a little longer for the contextual effect to start working. Seems like theads really aren't spidered by ypn until someone clicks on the thread the first time or two, then the ads look better.

You might want to experiment with targeting for different categories as well.

Yea, I set it up so that when it doesn't know the content it shows sports related ads. But I still get alot of mortage ones. Even on my homepage, It shows good ads part of the time, and mortage ads the other. I checked through the content of the page, and don't really see why they are posting mortage ads. But I have noticed as it has changed thoughout the day, I see less of them. Is there a way to get money from referring people to ypn like there is on google adsense?

That I don't know. I have never messed with that on adsense or YPN.

Ive never heard back from Yahoo. A little disappointed now. Any clues..?? whats next?

Today is the start of my third week waiting for approval. I hope to hear something from them.

I just applied, I'm expecting to wait a month or so before I hear anything.

They should really be doing better than this, if it's this hard to sign up to the network then people are going to sign up/stick with adsense.

I agree. I am now in my 4th week of nothing from them.

They are being really picky on which sites they want to allow in their network. I'm not sure if it is because of the upgrades they are working on or "blackmail" from their advertisers to only allow high quality traffic.
