Yahoo traffic

Discussion in 'Yahoo' started by Dwaighty, Sep 5, 2007.

    As a webmaster, I always neglected Yahoo traffic. I don't even submit to Yahoo...I just let it find my website and index the pages alone. The reason for this is that I don't get much traffic.

    The question is, does anyone have good traffic from yahoo? Are there any webmasters that get more traffic from Yahoo than from Google?

    I know that, it generally is, but I'm interested if there are webmasters that really get a good amount of traffic from Yahoo. I also want to know some figures.

    I get around 10% of my traffic from yahoo.

    Yahoo is icing.


    So I wouldn't spend a whole lot of time working on them.

    well i guess it depends on the keywords that you are trying to rank for.

    i'm pretty sure that for even hot keywords, you would get a truck load of traffic (even though it would be less than google) from yahoo

    this is a good keyword tool http://www.vretoolbar.com/keywords/ - allows you to get results from different countries and compares them across the search engines

    i do not know how accurate the above keyword tool is - but i guess that it is a rough guide only

    ive never bother submitting to yahoo either. i submit to google then let all the other search engines find me. i do quite well with yahoo traffic. out of my total traffic about 25% of my traffic comes directly from yahoo search which im very happy with.

    I have one site that gets 35k uniques/day.
    65% comes from Yahoo. I built it with Google serps in mind but it doesn't seem to do so well there for some reason.
    I wish I knew why.
