Yahoo Search is Getting Closer to Google Search

[sunil_gupta20801]

Did anyone noticed changes in Yahoo!' SERP today. Yahoo is following the same way as Google. Frequent change in Google SERP is kind of common now but it's new for Yahoo!. Yahoo! is changing search results very frequently now.

Share your thoughts.:)

Yes, I did noticed a difference on one of my sites about 5 days ago. It started getting and has since been getting a lot more type in traffic from yahoo search for its main key word. I was rather pleased. The same site gets only a few type in hits from google.

[seoorganizers]

yes , my site listing s also jumped back,

[obay]

My site is starting to reseve more traffic from Yahoo, now.

Yea there is an increase. But Yahoo has to work hard to give relevant results. Google is having manual rater program to increase relevancy of search results.

Yahoo! results are relevants but the problem is that major % on internet uses Google so its natural that you will receive less traffic. If more people will start using Yahoo!. they will find Yahoo! good also now days. :)

Same here, yahoo start to indexing my pages fastly.

[jonbuoy]

I've seen an increase in traffic from Yahoo too.

This in turn has increased my earnings from Google ads :D.

Thanks Yahoo

i lost my traffic from yahoo, prevoiusly it is giving more, but now it was gone

Just because their results are getting better doesn't mean they will EVER become better than Google.

Google visitors are not likely to switch back just as Mac users don't switch back to Microsoft.

[my_misyel]

Thats right. I noticed that my keywords ranked well in Yahoo SERP. Yahoo keeps on updating!

[roynston]

Thats surely true, my sites are doing great on yahoo, but on google they are still in search for some serious SEO.

[maxgates]

Now when Yahoo and Google are partners I am not surprised to see that

[tendulkar2]

yea.. that's definetly improving... but still it take lots of years for it to come anyway near to Google.

They are not partners !! they just had a deal about Paid Search !

[lolv2]

I have noticed an increase of 100 unique visitors per day to 1k unique visitors per day from Yahoo! :)
It's really catching up and sending me more and more traffic these days.

[PaulB-IOM]

I've been seeing this for a couple of weeks, much more regular updates. Mind you I've always thought the first page of results with Yahoo compared OK to Google, it's just a shame it doesn't drive much traffic.

[ozwidem3]

Yea i noticed this as well

[mill123]

i get absolutely no traffic from yahoo. even tho if i search on the same keywords i rank most of the time better than i do on google!

[johnlloyd]

Yahoo search get awful, most of my keywords that rank in number one bounce back to to second page, it is unstable right now! but Yahoo search is far from Google SERP.

[sinol]

yes i agree but still major difference in google and yahoo ranking result.

[seoorganizers]

mu site dancing all the way it moved back in SERp in Yahoo, What should i do for bringing back.

[Amator]

I also get a few more searches from Yahoo the last weeks.

[Lisha Christy]

Yea,
I have also heard the news that Yahoo is improving their Search Engine...

[wokaka]

It'll be a bad news if Yahoo gets more market share. Google usually only puts maximum 3 sponsored links above natural listings meanwhile Yahoo could give 4 sponsored links at the same spot. That sux. Yahoo would try their best to gain market share then if one day they successfully stand on the same level with google (which I don't think won't happen), Yahoo would try to monetize its search results as far as they can. That'll be ugly I think.

[MRniceGuy007]

Yahoo looks like a copy of Google from last year. Most of my websites ranked well in Google last year until the big updates, then lately Yahoo loves those sites that were relegated to the mid pages in Google. lol Yahoo is rather late but the ROI of Yahoo feels and statistically looks better than Google

[triplex]

yahoo loves me! all my sites do well with them, google just makes me angry!

[sunil_gupta20801]

For me also, Yahoo is friend too :)

[PinoyIto]

I have tried to search my target keyword in yahoo but can't my site at top 50 while I am rank number 9. But hope they will be soon powerful as google

[vietnamimpressive]

i have increase in yahoo traffic but lost 90% from google :(

[LinkGenie]

I think its great if Yahoo is really doing well. Giving monopoly to Google is not a good sign. Competition can only make us happy.

Well said, Yahoo! is on the fast track. Lets hope for best

[zurpit.com]

I seem to be doing better on yahoo now too

[Swapnil]

Yahoo is best of kind.
Yahoo search is going better & n soon will be in competition with google

[gftframe]

I like Yahoo rank position

[iLine.us]

I think yahoo has had much better results than google for some time now. Unless I am looking up a specific error message (which google is still better at finding), i primarily use yahoo for all of my searches now.

[wussadotcom]

hhhhhmmmmmm

Great good comment:D
Yahoo focus more on domain keyword so not many work needed to get high ranks in SERP for yahoo. :)

[jontizz]

My sites went down in yahoo...but in gooogle they are rock on!!

[Thomas_Horton]

Now when Yahoo and Google are partners I am not surprised to see that

Lmao...

Are you also going to claim Apple and Microsoft are partners?

[SEO_WatchDog]

No changes for me... I remember writing an article - comparing major search engines (http://blog.promotionseo.com/?p=3) by effectiveness and relevance of their SERPs... You might take interes in reading what I discovered

[biko]

its good with me from last month till now, more and more traffic from yahoo now :)
