Does Yahoo not like templated websites?

[Seobiznezz]

As I look through many of the SERPS for Yahoo, I can't help buy notice they seem to love sites without templates.

Sites where the complete content changes 100% from page to page to page.

It seems like I can only get sites to rank in Yahoo without templates.

Anyone see this also and understand what I mean?

I have many sites that rank well for highly competitive keywords on yahoo. Not sure what you mean by templates, but I build custom "templates" in dreamweaver and all pages in the site use the same template, but of course the content changes on each page.

yahoo never works for me.

Although it takes more time, I have sites with similar topics do just fine making it into their SERPS, including blogs, which have a 'template'.

I am not sure with Yahoo anymore... they are even starting to put paid ads mixed in with the generic results. I do have good ranking with yahoo on sites but it sure became obvious that you should submit your rss feed or text sitemap... and then be patient. Ohh how i miss the engines of the 90's :rolleyes:

I would love to hear your results on the template theory though, if you test it out.
