SE paid inclusion? Info please.

I guess I could post this at searchengineforums, but I'd like to get opinions from friends and people in the adult biz, as it would be of more relevance to me.

Anyway, here it goes. I know Inktomi has had a paid inclusion service for quite some time now, and I noticed AltaVista is doing the same now. Have any of you done it and experienced it was worth it? And what do they actually include, the single URL you submit, or does their spider crawl all the links on your page and even follow the links out? 'Cause in that case it would be smarter to submit a "crawler" page linking to all your sites, instead of submitting them one by one.

I'm considering this, the indexing times seem like forever otherwise. Plus, having your site crawled every other day also seems like a good thing to do, especially if you run one that updates often.

Also, does anyone know what Yahoo will charge to add your site to their directory? What other SE have this paid inclusion thing and how often do they re-index your site?
