Yahoo is dieing

[ListedHosting]

Alright so i been reading up on yahoo and its recent low amount of traffic and was wondering what you guys think yahoo could do to get through this rough patch. This of course excluding "Becoming more like Google" as they have already stated that they will not follow or try to copy goggles tactics.

[SuperBlog]

Well, their search engine traffic never will be as high as Google's, because of course Google is better. Google has a lot of free products and services, such as Google Adsense, Google Earth, etc. but Yahoo has plenty of things such as Yahoo Answers, and all of the videos and new articles on their site, along with their webmail. I think they should work on improving the features of their site that Google DOESN'T HAVE, so they'll be very strong on those points.

Yahoo will never beat Google but I don't think it's going to "die", either. :)

[MakeADifference]

I remember reading a story somewhere that about 10 years back, askjeeves was one of the top seach engines, then yahoo, google etc.
What happened after that was everyone else drifted from being mere search engine to more like portal site. Google still remained search engine and they are much better and relevant.

The only bad part is : It is too difficult to get good ranking at google..!!

[raredog]

I doubt Yahoo would die. Yahoo is a strong company!

The only bad part is : It is too difficult to get good ranking at google..!!

Yeah right! They gave me PR4 before, and they took it away just like that. I never asked them for it anyway.

[Fka200]

Well, their search engine traffic never will be as high as Google's, because of course Google is better.


If anyone could overtake Google, it's Yahoo. They need to get their sh!t together to get anywhere. Hell, even MSN is starting to send me a lot of traffic. Nothing like Google, and I don't think they stand a chance vs Google... but Yahoo? Different story. Depends on management and how they start promoting/improving what they have.

[verticity]

but the fect is tht google and yahoo both are using same database. thier results have similarity

[ListedHosting]

Umm im not too sure about that. I really dont think they run from the same db might be wrong though.

[locals]

LOL yeah they may get some of there SE inclusions from the same place (the internet) but having the same data base is a STRONG infraction of the truth . . . but then again you never know . . . but i highly doubt that they are the SAME data base

[lawless87]

Well they are laying off half of there staff so that tells you something about the one time giant

[rehash]

yahoo has nothing to offer at the moment, they used to have the email, but now with gmail they are losing it
only yahoo messenger is popular in some countries, without it yahoo would be almost dead

[Dollar]

They should get rid of the portal. Obviously a Portal != what people want so they go to Google and there page loads in 1/10th of second and there no distractions just a search bar and a logo.
People want to search.

[Lever]

It'd be sad if Yahoo ever went under; it's in the interests of the Internet as a whole that there's some diversity in search rather than just one giant "dominating" it all... How about we have a "Just Use Yahoo" day where everybody gives the highly officious oracle a boost? :)

[SNaRe]

Google killed Yahoo i think.Yahoo must develope itself

[caj]

Yahoo just too complacent. It should have been focusing on delivering superior product right from the start. Just look at the many things that Yahoo did wrong. How many of you ever use Yahoo video for example?

[ravemaster]

BUt I like Yahoo search result more than google. Google had many junk result.

[wisdomtool]

I think you are barking up at the wrong tree, Yahoo is essentially a portal trying to get a pie of the search engine, they may not be doing that well in that arena, certainly they are not dying.

[geegel]

yahoo has nothing to offer at the moment, they used to have the email, but now with gmail they are losing it
only yahoo messenger is popular in some countries, without it yahoo would be almost dead

Yahoo mail is better than Gmail. I for one don't like the thought of having my e-mails read so a jerk can serve me contextual advertising.

Google may have the search engine, but for me Yahoo Mail is still the choice.

This of course excluding "Becoming more like Google" as they have already stated that they will not follow or try to copy goggles tactics.

I notice that also that Yahoo is now following the Google Trend...

They follow the adsense which is their yahoo publisher is one example...

[wisdomtool]

YPN is a very poor follower of Adsense, speaking the other way round, it can also be said that Google is following Yahoo by offering services such as Gmail, Google Groups etc.

I notice that also that Yahoo is now following the Google Trend...

They follow the adsense which is their yahoo publisher is one example...

[bleuken]

in my opinion Yahoo! is not dying even if they plan to lay-off / cut-off a lot of their staff. Even they are not frequently crawling some sites, they are still one of the best search engine on the WWW. Aside from that, in our place we're still using Yahoo! Messenger and I still play on their Game site. According to Alexa.com, in our country Yahoo! is @ rank #1

[angilina]

google will always rule, not sure about yahoo

[wisdomtool]

This is a one liner sentence not backed by any statistics.

google will always rule, not sure about yahoo

[crumblepie]

I love yahoo mail, so even if people don't use the search engine as much, they are still using other services on a regular basis. I'd use yahoo more often if they didn't have so much stuff on their search engine page.. I'm not saying they should follow Google's Tactics, but they really should consider seperating the search engine from all that extra stuff like news and videos.

[gerwinjz76]

Yahoo! Mail is still better than Gmail for me though... :D

[Shazz]

Yahoo is reborn with microsoft :)

[bogart]

Yahoo has a lot of good technology with the inkomi search engine and overture.

Microsoft will be able to a better job with these technologies.

[ListedHosting]

It still has no chance, Microsoft can invest as much as they want but i am sure Google will come out with something better the next day. Though it is nice to see it has been bought my Microsoft and will last a few more Years.

[philposters]

Yahoo does not have something similar to google adsense that site owners around the world could earn from. I'm not fond of yahoo search too. I think google search is much more accurate. I wish they'd be a much better competition for Google though.

[zexy]

The only thing I like about Yahoo is their email.

[wisdomtool]

Well that is something I hate, you can try using your company email to forward to Yahoo, most likely it will be in the bulk folder. :( I love Yahoo Finance though.

The only thing I like about Yahoo is their email.

[erolelcott]

i`m not too sure that yahoo is gonna die!!

[trevomanut]

We all know that Yahoo has some unique things that Google hasn't.
For example Yahoo Answers.So far Google haven't made something similar and better to challenge it.

[ListedHosting]

yea but apparently they don't want to beat each other by taking the others ideas, yahoo even claimed that it would not resort to becoming more like Google just to get traffic, which in my opinion is a great move on there part because it makes them seem that much more integrable.

[psytech]

for example Google already stopped their answer site. And i'm not sure that Yahoo mail is better than Gmail . For me - like everyday user - gmail is more light and easy to use , the new version ot yahoo mail cost more loading time , and is heavy for the browser. I hope if MS buy Y! to bring new life to this company. My first e-mail box ever was from yahoo (more than 10 years ago) :) Nostalgic

[iucpxleps]

yahoo might die eventually but they have in any case a special place in the history of internet imo kinda like a milestone. so I'd rather not see them dead..but Google for sure hittin'em hard.

[pharcyded]

Microsoft is trying to buy Yahoo for 40 +billion so they can merge and compete with Google. Will it happen? Nothing is confirmed, but if it does they might actually create a decent search engine out of it.

[elpableras]

All the world knows that the best of yahoo is not its seeker but for it this Microsoft. ;)

[ronmojohny]

Yahoo actually gets more traffic than Google. It's a portal, not just a search engine. No search engine is perfect; it they were, there would only be one answer, the right one. The best search engine would be a human edited one, by votes of relavency. That's why Google uses the social sites for it's serps more and more..

[pitbullt]

Never know of all this!

[bballdreamer]

Yahoo needs more innovation. An example of this working is Yahoo answers.. yeah and i wonder why gmail is getting more popular than yahoo mail. I personally think yahoos email is better than gmail's.

[SunDevil]

How do you brand a search engine? Have actors in movies say "Why dont you google it? No I use Yahoo, its a better search enigne"

Thats my vote....Might cost a few hundred million.......They could have Google Front the money :)

[freespace]

First thing Yahoo needs to do is get rid of its spam.

Spam sites are the reason I don't use Yahoo as often as Google.

They need to get back to basics and fix the shit that people take for granted that work at other engines.

"yahoos email is better than gmail's"

Maybe its better, but its not easier. I have gmail, hotmail and yahoo and can tell you that out of all 3 gmail is the most easiest to use and quickest to shoot off an email with minimal clicks.

[arcadie]

one thing that turns me off from yahoo is their gian news section on their home page. i just would like to see a search box.

[lynder]

^ Yahoo search is quite messy and not pleasing to look at

[digiboyz]

i heard yahoo maybe teaming up with google

[technolarity]

Yahoo ranks #3 in amount of traffic , even if it loses a few thousand visitors it won't hurt them badly . Maybe they would gain some next week .

[technolarity]

Yahoo is better on ranking as it prefers giving rankings to old sites but i am a webmaster so i create new sites all the time , not good for me :p

[techjunkiez]

yahoo has pretty good services so there is no chance of it dying

[digitalmatch]

They might accept Microsoft's proposal. Some experts say that they will.

[meanie]

emailed them about yahoo auction but they just gave the standard reply. lol guess they're going to die. they still have an edge over ebay in asia though.

[KingofKings]

Yahoo won't die, but some people are saying someone is going to buy them out soon.

[petpap]

Well, who are using the Alexa toolbar? Are you?
No, only people with small computer knowledge are installing the Alexa toolbar(often by mistake).

It is the traffic of THESE people that is seen on Alexa

[bomberman]

I think Yahoo is not dieing. It is only happen that Google outranked Yahoo for some reasons.

[pharcyded]

yahoo has pretty good services so there is no chance of it dying

It's not going to die tomorrow or anything....but it will die eventually if they don't sell it/merge or try to get back on top of their game.

[pragith]

I personally feel that Yahoo! is great in it's own sense. I mean, though Google is the current hot-hot thing, but Yahoo! was a champ, and will be a rockstar.

[masoha]

but the fect is tht google and yahoo both are using same database. thier results have similarity

I don't think so... but maybe... somehow they use similar algorithms

[microtekblue]

Yes agree...Yahoo is the best email....gmail is garbage!

[mygolfbuddy]

What will the MSN buyout mean for yahoo?

[azharcs]

A valuation of $ 50 Billion dollars, no way they are dying. They have some very good products in their hand like del.icio.us, flickr, answers, messenger, yahoo mail and so many others. In mail market google holds just 5%. I know there are lot of google fan boys here but realize google is getting stronger, when corporations get stronger they start dictating users what to do and what not to do.

If Microsoft does not buy Yahoo, Google will have no competitor, already we are seeing publishers getting 1 cent per click, Google advertising revenue increases where as web publishers ad revenue decreases.When market is growing so fast why are web publishers making less money than previous years. Google is stealing money from us.

[Loonm]

first of all yahoo never claimed to be best search engine, basically this is a web directory, but as long as they have one of the first free email services, they have gained regular visitors, and started to provide news for them.
Now yahoo is a good place for everything, HotJobs by yahoo, is one of the best places to find job, great automotive site, greatest news and articles. Google doesn't have this :)

[locals]

I Like Yahoos Movie Selecion For The Theaters Over Anything I Have Ever Used !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[WWW.CYBERHUBONLINE.COM]

Hmmm, from my own point of view, i cant see that Yahoo is dying. ^_^

[Emie.]

I miss the days of the Yahoo browser. :']

[iiPanel]

Yahoo is not dying, however, to have competitive advantage over Google they need to develop a new idea/system that google doesn't have!

[mysite2121]

ur so right yahoo will never die matter of fact yahoo earch engine i think is bette then googles maybe not as popular but better results if yahoo and msn merged that would be one strong company i think google would never let that happen

[hostevery]

The reason people like google cause its simple. Yahoo looks like a big advertisement portal.

[ngarama]

Probably still digesting the latest $44 billion offer from microsoft and forgot the actual business.

[digitaleye]

google think yahoo is their "healthy" competitor....
dunno what, but i think they gonna help them.....,
even they help yahoo deflect microsoft bid....:D

[stylesp]

Yahoo is not even close to dying. They have superior news articles, videos, and even music. You can't really put Google in the same league as Yahoo in my opinion. I think it is great news wise.

[microtekblue]

YAHOO DYING?

noooooooooooooooooooooOOO

[arcel]

Yahoo is far from dying...
though there struggling in competing against google...

[phpgeek]

I really don't use Yahoo anymore. Google's got everything.

[meanie]

even google checkout lol

[princessofpirates]

in my opinion Yahoo! is not dying even if they plan to lay-off / cut-off a lot of their staff. Even they are not frequently crawling some sites, they are still one of the best search engine on the WWW. Aside from that, in our place we're still using Yahoo! Messenger and I still play on their Game site. According to Alexa.com, in our country Yahoo! is @ rank #1

yahoo also is number 1 here..but usage wise..google pass my personal qualifications

[hellbringer1995]

i dont really get how yahoo is number 1

[getsuccess]

Friend may be Google and Microsoft are geeting very well in internet.. and its growing very rapidly.

But YAHOO is geeting very low these days may be in future Google or Microsoft will get that YAHOO very soon.

[w3bmaster]

Nope Yahoo is a strong company making money from other places then google so it's not dead

[greatlogix]

I love Yahoo Groups. Google groups are nothing as compared to Yahoo Groups.Yahoo is a big company. I don't think Yahoo is dieing

[rkalajian]

Yahoo needs to take risks, and be innovative.

I wouldn't say they're dying, but they've been stagnant.

Show us something new, Yahoo!

[amad]

Dying, but in the early stages. They have a tumor that's not inoperable but the procedure is expensive! There are only a few doctors that can perform the operation and all but one is bold enough to try. Even with this knowledge, they still push Dr. Microsoft away. Go Figure!

[Scottscd]

They should get rid of the portal. Obviously a Portal != what people want so they go to Google and there page loads in 1/10th of second and there no distractions just a search bar and a logo.
People want to search.

Spot on. The reason I don't use Yahoo is because it's cluttered with so much portal crap it's just easier to click Google. I also trust Googles results much more and feel like I might be missing out on something if I use Yahoo.

[hexxer]

Yahoo has too much garabge on their pages, i prefer google.

[gemini181]

It's run by a bunch of Yahoos!
:rolleyes:

[eStar]

I think if yahoo is dying Microsoft wouldn't offer them such a great price to buy it...

[gothindorm]

I think to get better they should update there mail layout

[qwidjib0]

Yea Yahoo!'s Alexa rank is only.. 1. They'll probably be out of business before the year is out. :)

http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details/yahoo.com?q=

I love Yahoo!, though their search has lagged behind for a long time.. most of Google's good ideas have been taken from them (maps, mail, groups, news, and so on). I don't see them going anywhere anytime soon.. Google needs to get their ideas from somewhere.

[primeryder]

I do not think Yahoo is dying. it is still the most popular site on the web, even thought it's search engine is not googles equal. Also, they were super popular even when their search engine was much worse than it is now, as it has been greatly improved. And their email service does not have all the privacy implications of gmail.

[yragcom1]

Yahoo is NOT going anywhere. If MSN still has life, then Yahoo will be around for a long time. At the least they're trying stuff that's new once in a while. MSN is just a paperweight of a website.

[wildfire07]

Yahoo has been dead a long time already, they just don't admit it.

[COLDROCK]

It will die if they don't collabrate with MS or AOL soon.

[MasterG12]

of course they are dying because google is the most used search engine in the world and they control the search engine business. only microsoft can help them

[Nixell]

As far i know, Yahoo fired thousand employee

[ItsJordan]

didn't know yahoo had a browser

[SeoGrr]

I don't think people go to google only because it is the best seach engine. Most surfers like te freebies Google offers. Tube sites youtube.com add to the popularity as well.

[ronintrader.com]

I have to agree that Yahoo is dying. It based its business model on banner ads - and stuck with it unfortunately. Although their social media holdings can help fetch them a decent sell-out price :>

[Pippo09]

I think they need more innovation

[kenbrower]

In regards to getting on top of the search game, quite simply they're going to have to make some drastic and revolutionary changes to get people's attention and get better results with their search engine. In the short-term, they can hold on to lesser educated users by providing better content alongside their search, something to make people stick around despite the low quality of search engine results.

[sacada2]

Yahoo is still alive, i'm receiving traffic from it.

[unkush]

google buying yahoo thats why yahoo is not working on it service anymore

[jiw17]

i think yahoo have many things to improve,such as algorithm for search engine. it's not good enough for me,but may be is up to country. my country google give any thing that better than yahoo.

[charter]

I got a 3 page letter from Jerry Yang. Yahoo has 2B cash to grow with.

They do have some problems but they are working on them

[TonyCap]

Maybe it's just me, but I prefer Yahoo search. I get better quality results.

[nosleepno]

I don't think search is yahoo's main money maker.

They also offer DSL and other internet access services.

[kingofsanda]

Yahoo has to reinvent itself.

[Mitchelle Johnson]

Every search engine or portal is popular in different geographic location. It is right popularity of google has increased from some time but it doesn't mean yahoo is dieing. I have recently checked traffic on yahoo and yahoo products and got very good traffic on yahoo and yahoo service websites.

[tsukara]

i think yahoo have many things to improve,such as algorithm for search engine. it's not good enough for me,but may be is up to country. my country google give any thing that better than yahoo.

I think yahoo will keep improving their algorithm in order to compete google. But G is still at the top.

[hiqcode]

Yahoo does not have the management team or the tech savvy to improve their search and advertiser experience. The ysm advertiser applications (Panama) are being outsourced to an inexperienced offshore team. Those applications are still several years behind Google and Google will increase their lead as Yahoo changes course and invests heavily in rich media ads. The rich media ad solution is a network or exchange (apex). Apex has limited analytics as Yahoos data-tracking is broken for the foreseeable future. That means the optimizations required for the exchange will be short changed. Take a quick look at Google's adwords/tvads to see where the trail is blazing. Yahoo hasn't begun to conceptualize the video ad space yet. Is Yahoo dieing? Well ... Yahoo is a great brand, mail is adequate, messenger sort of works (and I mean sort of, try conferencing - unstable) but internet growth and advertising dollars will not depend on those apps. Revenue depends on: search monetization (Google has that tied up), richmedia on community websites like myspace.com (Yahoos Apex does not address the analytics required to optimize cpm), video ads (Yahoo hasn't even conceptualized this yet). I believe the MS acquisition of Yahoo is good ... for Yahoo! employees. How did Yahoo get into this position? On some teams there are 6 layers of management between the CTO and developer. Too many chiefs not enough scientists and engineers. Will this change, I think so when MS gasps after they unwrap their Christmas present.

[trustful88]

Yahoo is very behind on everything technologically... google is destroying them

[tradeya]

yahoo doesnt consider as they main income as google so they wont develop much. the only way they can beat google is to teamupwith other SEs then invent new algo or new SE to compete with.

[hecto]

I think Yahoo needs to become a bit like Google in sense of Pay per click, but other then that Yahoo has got a lot of other high quality services that it offers such as yahoo finance. If it concentrates on becoming like google it will not be yahoo anymore.

[Lukas]

Yahoo seems more focused on news delivery.

They are more of a media company than they were in the mid 90's.

there is a lot of good sections in Yahoo to go to such as sports, webmail, finance, answers and more

OTOH, Google is only great for search...their webmail is OK..hate not having mail folders either.

[MidMido]

I think Yahoo is a GREAT Site .. ofcourse GOOGLE is Huge and Amazing Site

But i don't Think YAHOO is dieing!

[ptisouthwest]

yahoo never had strenght in terms of search. its killer tool was the portal/directory but its branching out too much.

google's quality has lowered as its algo's have died in importance. people know how to game google so its now full of spam , blogs, shopping links which is why google has started to become more of a portal.

for me teoma was by far the best , this was before ask bought them. the only problem they had was scalability of the algo to several billion pages indexed.

time now is for localised engines ie yandex in russia,baidu in china etc

[Hostable]

BUt I like Yahoo search result more than google. Google had many junk result.
I beg to differ, but your wrong in my opinion.
You put anything into google, it gives you what you want.
Yahoo i just about as mutch use as windows live search.
Google dominates the internet.

[Mrguy123]

I actually use Yahoo a lot more than I use google, not sure why but I always have, I am happy with the results I get. true, google does dominate the net though.

[Crazy-Coding]

more people use yahoo than google, from yahoo messanger to hosting. Yahoo is also a good news feeder.

[jamesxp]

I suspect that there is a certain amount of wishful thinking going on here. While Yahoo search my be lagging in the US and UK, it is still enormously ahead of the market in Japan, and dominates the IM market in a number of territories.

While the Yahoo search engine is utter arse as far as a UK user reads, it continues to focus on its now core markets in the Far East, where aspects such as the domain name are extremely important to the user.

The internet is an international concept and in order to provide a pragmatic result, a business must necessarily compromise in favour of the majority of its customers. Just because you are in the UK and your little affiliate website is ranking poorly does not mean that Yahoo is dying.

Having said all that, from a western point of view, they are in decline, and I give them 6 months before m$oft take them over.

[yugo]

i remember that 2 days ago, i have used yahoo search engine, and then they have errored at their page. i don't understand.

[KhaoticStorm]

Yahoo doesn't seem to be really dying, they just expanded advertising in different countries. Their whole site is great, specially the media. I don't think they are even focused on their engine as much as they used too anyways. But I do use google over yahoo, just because google for some reason I always type google but I won't type yahoo lol.

[gibex]

not dying, just bad management.

[xcelent88]

not dying, just bad management.

I totally agree with you :p

[cccharish]

Yahoo and Google are like head and tail of a coin. Yahoo will never die and google will never extint. Yahoo must realize that google is trying to design product where yahoo or msn have a masss appeal and they are able to reach the people because google adwords and google adsens. Google is able to develop better products and they dont have any competitor contextual advertising.Hence hoe can Yahoo be a number one. Here are some of my suggestion.
1. Open Yahoo Publisher Network to international audience.
2. create a product similar to google bloggers.com
3. Free unlimited mail access with POP3.
4. Create multiple free products like google pack.
5. Takeover some businesses to expand the market reach.

[Gatorade]

What did this dumb ass do to get banned?

[wwwAD-SENSINGcom]

Yeah ive noticed this also

[lynder]

because of dieing?

[gryffin11]

dont they still have the #1 spot of traffic to their .com in the world? i dont think they are dying

[netridge]

I don't think yahoo is dying of anything soon, While they may not be focusing on their search engine they are trying to expand in other areas. Yahoo still stands at #2 and so far no one seems to be trying to take that spot.

[Dollar]

well, yahoo should have taken microsoft's offer.

it's got more contents I'm sure more people use yahoo than goog.
I only use google for search and email.

[usmanzali]

Yahoo needs 1.5 million or something like that to upgrade there stuff. That is why microsoft is giving them a hand.

Why is it that every time, I log on I see this thread... The Op of this thread has already been ban and every still talking about this topicIt's because the thread starter is banned for whatever reason but the topic is not, it's still relevant!

[Cheap SEO Services]

If Yahoo really want to, I'll take their business off their hands for $100 :D

[seovission]

In this fast growing world if you maintain your product with advance technology and give facility to your customer then you have a good brand name.

Google update algorithms frequently and gives new feature to webmaster or visitor.
So, Google is Top Brand name is Search Engine market.

mate, that's the answer! if you dominate the search market, it means you dominate the online advertising world.

[high_flying]

Mr Wall says that Yahoo's current search algorithm is usually Googles algo two years ago... making it obsolete.

That true?

[NanTheMan4]

yahoo, will never die!

[Stuff]

Google is better tbh.

[the-nest]

I found a secret to make any searchengine to come in Top10, but I don't want to post it here cuz I am not so sure whether it will work or not.

Any way according to me google is doing better than yahoo.

[americanroyalty]

Really? I've been using Yahoo more than ever. But I'm just one person....

[marshalseo]

I'm enjoying yahoo for last three years. I getting enough traffic from yahoo. Yahoo have improved it self much more than it was before three years. But soon it may be good search engine that others.

[Farhan5]

yahoo cant die
