How to rank your site in Yahoo search engine

[pixens]

Google have page rank. Some also come up with page strength.

But what is the good old simple yardstick to rank your site in Yahoo's eyes?

Search engine optimization is the key for ranking on all search engines. Along with the onpage optimization, link building, good content plays a vital role in ranking on all search engines.

One difference ranking on Yahoo compared to Google is Yahoo gives more weight on meta keywords then Google.

I don't know how Yahoo rank website,too, any one can help ?

[chriszz]

Yahoo gives far more weight to on page keyword density...basically keyword stuffing!

Relevancy ..that is the idea of Yahoo search

[digitaldreams]

I'd love to know the magic formula, I have sites ranking well in MSN and google (more so in MSN), but absolutely no traffic from yahoo. I'm ranked so far down its like being in a black hole. Does anyone know what the preferred keyword density is for yahoo? or at least have a guess?

Yahoo's traffic is much less as compared to google but still it cant be ignored. That low traffic is also too much and means a lot

Take a look at this... I created this blog in about an hour. It was listed in Yahoo the next day and it's getting about 400 page views a day...all from organic yahoo search engine traffic. I still can't even get it listed on google....I can't figure it out.

I wish I could find out the secret so I could duplicate it with other sites and landing pages.

[raven1083]

is it really true that yahoo spiders focus more on the keyword of a web page and the density of it including meta tags? does you also consider backlinks coming from sites that has a high page rank?

[Kapil Khaneja]

As u say yahoo likes keyword stuffing, google might not like it. So does that mean that noone can get good rankings with both yahoo and google at the same time. Plz explain.

[markn26]

I think Yahoo is one of the few who still use Meta keywords (?)

[jigolo]

yeah Yahoo is using meta keyword for optimizing

[Himalayan]

Everybody is following Google algorithm,making changes and updates according to google for getting high traffic on their website. Getting position in yahoo is secondary option.

[net4earning]

in some countries Yahoo is more popular then Google.
but Google give more SE Hits then Yahoo.
yahoo focus on url kewords + meta keywords.

[sprabhu]

Yahoo gives more importance on on page optimization like keywords density and meta tags.

[iKid]

Yahoo gives more importance on on page optimization like keywords density and meta tags.

But google doesn't like keyword stuffing, so what's the way out or should we narrow down our choices either google or yahoo ?

[ursfehr]

Yahoo gives far more weight to on page keyword density

I always wondered this too.

what about live search too?

and altavista?

Just pay Yahoo - Search Sponsor

Yahoo even gives priority to search submit clients for indexing of web pages

As for me, Google is the search engine that provide true and quality search results

[IndianWebMaster]

Yahoo seems to give more importance to on site SEO techniques than Google, which focuses primarily on the number and quality of backlinks.
