    All,
    I wanted to share some news with our advertisers. We just increased the number of Blocked Domains allowed per U.S. account from 250 to 500, to provide advertisers with more control over their target audience.

    For more info, please take a look at this post on the YSM Blog: http://www.ysmblog.com/blog/2008/11/14/the-blocked-domains-500/

    Thanks,
    YahooPete

    hi, I assume the creator of this post represents Yahoo.

    I have a problem with the traffic you people send me. On third of the clicks are really from the Yahoo search pages and converts very well. The rest two thirds is garbage traffic collected just from anywhere - just clicks with no one really interested on my website or using it or registering or anything like that.
    I contacted the support and they advised me to use this blocked domains feature. However this feature is as useful as the useless part of the traffic you send me. First of all, 30% of the useless traffic seems to have no origin at all, at least i cannot track it with Google analytics to actually block the domains. What shall i tracked it with? Second of all when I add the lasted porn domains that you send me traffic from ... the next day there are new ones TO SEND ME CLICKS. It like the eternal play of tom and Jerry - even when tom smashes Jerry to pieces it still remains alive...
    Also your support team told me to add all the adult words in my negative keywords list to prevent all these clicks from the porn site THAT I REALLY DO NOT WANT BY THE WAY - but no result, the port traffic just goes on.
    I REALLY WANT GENUINE TRAFFIC FROM YAHOO! PLEASE HELP ME TO GET IT. PLEASE HELP ME TO STOP THE GARBAGE TRAFFIC.

    it would be great if we could run reports similar to the adwords placement performance reports!
