Why is that. MSN generally converts best but it all depends on the niche. Yahoo traffic generally converts better then Google but you will never get as much of it. You must give reasons for this ridiculous indescript statement.
Yahoo traffic is important for only those of my sites which are banned in Google..... Unless I check my logs/analytics, I won't even notice if Yahoo stopped sending traffic to my other sites.
How about you back it up with some sort of an evidence? I think the relevancy of the search results have a big impact on the quality of visitors resulting from that search and Google fairs much better in that sense. Yahoo searches are still filled with spam/junk returns.
Traffic from search engines is very important for every web site definitely! But I don't think that Yahoo! is very important as Google. For example: Yesterday to my site from search engines comes 564 visitors and that 533 from Google and only 10 from Yahoo! So it's huge advantage for Google
It doesn't matter which search engine traffic comes from. They are all good. The only different is some people are using Google search engine and some are using Yahoo search engine. You say Google traffic is good and important, maybe because your drive traffic method is targeting more on Google traffic. That is why you have more traffic from Google search engine. This can't differentiate which search engine is better. It is only the matter that where do you drive your traffic from.
Google brings by far the most traffic to my website through Search Engines. I get a little from yahoo on my websites and barely any from MSN and others.
It is not really important what you concentrate on, you will get more traffic from google than from yahoo.
it's depend on the target visitor of each site. if you think your visitor most came from yahoo you should focus on yahoo SE. but i think most people still stick with google since their got most market share search.
In my opinion the search results are better at Yahoo and the traffic quality is better (more time on site). With that said Yahoo can only provide me with between 10-20% of my traffic. I really wished more people used yahoo search or even better MSN.
the problem is, i don't see many yahoo traffic in google analytics, but in yahoo, my site is more indexed this week, no idea why, but i don't agree that yahoo is the most important as google is bigger in search engine industry.
Im starting to like Yahoo more than Google because it is easier. Better backlinks and more protection.
Google are bullies and they know they have the upper hand on everything, so they do what they want and don't care if you complain. Google is only good because they have the traffic...volume..quantity, not quality. I just wish MSN had more volume, but I guess it evens out..traffic to conversions. When you say Yahoo is better..do you mean conversions? I just assumed that.
