Yahoo does not create its own Yellow Pages but merely license the data from another company, Info USA. You have to get into Info USA database for your listing to appear in the Yellow Pages of Yahoo.

Here’s the instruction http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/yp/about/yp-09.html

How can I add my business listing to Yahoo! Yellow Pages?

To add a business listing, you must go through your local telephone service provider, who sends business listings to Yahoo! We can’t add listings directly to the database. All listings must come to us through our data provider, InfoUSA.

If you’d like to be listed in the Yahoo! Yellow Pages, please use the following information to reach InfoUSA.

Contact InfoUSA http://dbupdate.infousa.com/dbupdate/yahoo1.jsp

I suggest you also try free classified ad listings. Post a link to your site for free where it is allowed (always read the Terms of Use). Examples are:

Craigslist http://www.craigslist.com
Google Base http://base.google.com
Classifieds for Free http://www.classifiedsforfree.com/…
Text Link Exchange http://www.txtswap.com/
Recycler.com http://www.recycler.com/
Yahoo Classifieds http://classifieds.yahoo.com/
