Hi All,

I've had some sales calls from Yell trying to sell me an enhanced=20
listing on their search engine.

Being in the trade I asked the salesman to substantiate his claims=20
relating to traffic numbers with more detailed data, as well as data=20
on click-thru rates and user session tracking. He said he would email=20
this over, but (unsurprisingly) he just sent through the same yarn he=20
gave me on the phone.

So, has anyone on the list sign-up to Yell advertising? And, if so,=20
did you see any traffic from that source? And did any of it convert?
