    Hi Guys - we have just launched a new website and we rank no.2 on yahoo for our keyword (not bad in a week) but I can't find our site on google!

    Any ideas etc?

    Cheers

    It takes awhile to be listed on Google - your site is still very new. Be patient! :)

    ranking in yahoo is even harder than ranking in google, unless you have paid for their directory listing, otherwise, no chance. If you didn't, i think it's just yahoo "dance", don't want to disappoint you, from my experience, you ranking in yahoo would drop after a few days....

    It can take time for new sites to get on top, and Yahoo and Google are two different search engines.

    Google and yahoo has different algorithms so it would always make the same results..
    Better work harder..

    Thanks for all your replies - Others site I have rank between 1st - 3rd place on yahoo and google for the keywords.

    My new site has over 400 pages cached by google but still can't find it when i search - very strange!

    Any tips would be great - many thanks

    Pages being indexed and pages appearing in the SERPS are two completely different things.

    That sounds unusual, google are usually very quick to index new sites, whereas from my experience yahoo are usually quite a bit slower.
