it depends on the system if there are more moles of gas on the left and you increase the pressure the yield of a product will increase as the equilibrium moves to the side with the fewest gas molecules

if the right hand side has more moles of gas and you increase the pressure the yield will decrease as the equilibrium shifts to the left hand side where there are more gas moles

hope that helps
