Why yahoo doesnt index my site much

[walkmanzone]

Hi guys, I currently running a forum. I have vbseo installed and vb sitemap generator. whenever run my sitemap and it will auto submit my sitemap to yahoo and google but why only google index my site and yahoo doesnt? I have my api key inserted.

How old your site is?
If it is new one then it can take time for yahoo to index and show your pages in its index. So you should wait for it.

[walkmanzone]

hmm 122 days. lol

Yeah sure does take awhile my new site is about 2 months old and still nothin:confused:

[acedalright]

i've always had a soft spot for Yahoo because they do index my sites

[JACMAR]

Do You Have any backlinks

[larryatdp]

Usually yahoo is slower than google. But it will come to index your pages eventually.

[sayedjustetc]

Yahoo favors keyword density
MSN favors fresh content
Google favors Page Rank

[bluebelt91]

I also felt that google will take lesser time to index your pages compare to yahoo..
so wait for some more time..

Yahoo is very slow but once they crawl ur site then u can get some good traffic, it is just a matter of time.

is there is special site to submit sitemap for yahoo as same like google?

[GreenWithEnvy]

http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/ Search your site, and after you login you should be able to submit a sitemap.

Yahoo has found 30 backlinks (from like 5 different sites however) to my website, yet they still have not indexed it :(

[joelchrist]

Generally yahoo need quality content. More than that it takes some times to index your site. so be patient for sometime.

[GreenWithEnvy]

Of course as soon as I complain, the next day it has a couple of my pages indexed haha

[shadowpope17]

Yahoo indexed my forum pretty quicky. Not as quick as Google though .

[vicarlone]

Yahoo favors keyword density
MSN favors fresh content
Google favors Page Rank
Interesting point of view...

[walkmanzone]

hmm msn favor fresh content? what you mean by fresh content? new site?
Well seems like my forum is already having tons of keywords? Google indexed my site very fast unlike yahoo.
Msn haven even come LOL

[FifthDimension]

I guess yahoo will be able to index your site more if you can submit a sitemap to Yahoo.

[newlogo]

you need to give tons of back link for yahoo.

[ReggieBreese]

With Yahoo dumping off their search team to Microsoft early next year I would focus more on Bing. Yahoo will definitely modify the results but why focus on a search engine that's going to be shifting in a few months?

Just a thought.:)

[susanqy]

I have a web site, It have not been indexed by yahoo,but indexed after another domain name,maybe your domain name is not welcome by Yahoo

[eddyman1us]
