I don't get any traffic from Yahoo

Have you successfully submitted your site to Yahoo. Check to see if the crawlers didn't get any errors when they visited your website.

Improve your keywords and site description so you can easily get crawled so the traffic goes in.

 

tulip4heaven: I thought so as well, yahoo directory will boost my ranking on yahoo but the funny thing was that I went from page 3 to page 9 after submission, one month on they moved me to page 8, so much help for $300.
khalid2167: my stats are even worse as this month I got about 1,000 from google and about 20 from yahoo.
I don't know what to do for yahoo as I want to rank there (20%+ audience is not nothing) but I'm unwilling to make many changes as I might lose my rankings on google.

 

try it again

 

you can use the yahoo tool

 

it can go either way depending on how your site is laid out

 

This is very usual as I get most of my traffic from Google and MSN almost none Yahoo .

 

Thanks for all your tips. I guess that adding the sitemap to Yahoo is the way to go but I need to wait a few days for them to crawl it.

 

You don't pay Yahoo to get into their directory.
What you post doesn't matter to them....

 

i m run site about 2 year i dont recive any trafic from bing. but i m recive trafic from google and yahoo.

(sorry for english)

 

Same here....I have a six year old site that doesn't show up anywhere on Yahoo, but ranks high for certain KW on Google and Bing.

It's frustrating.

 

Your site is just 2 months old and yahoo takes more time to index a site. Give them some time. At the mean time, work hard on SEO and you will be rewarded.

 

Thanks I'm going to wait then.

 

I observed about my new website it took more time to be indexed in yahoo than in google, also google crawled my website quickly and also it updated the new pages that I have published.

 

i used to but dont get traffic from yahoo anymore. its still a mystery to me.

 

well i guess it really all depends. you have a good rank on yahoo?

 

i m also feeling the same thing............. i don't when yahoo will be active....... like..... Google.......

yahoo takes some time to index ur site,till u submit ur site in yahoo

 

I get most of my traffic from Google and Yahoo, and almost none from Bing.In this area the crowd mainly use yahoo search

 

Your site is a new site so you need to create more backlinks and wait yahoo index.

 

You site are either not present in the yahoo database or they are not ranked well. What works with one search engine may not work with the other so if afterall you 're indexed in yahoo check to see what you 're doing wrong with them that they refuse to send you traffic.
