little from yahoo.. and have a lot in google... how to improve yahoo indexing the site every 5minutes?
I got more traffic from google than yahoo before but I am not sure if it is still the same since I stopped using google analytics
Yahoo seems to reward age more than Google. So newer sites can have trouble ranking. After a year or more, the Yahoo traffic will start rolling in. Now there are always exceptions. My brother had his site indexed and on page #1 of Yahoo for a popular search term in about a month. I don't know how he did it and neither does he. The best thing to do is what most webmasters do. Optimize for Google and treat the Yahoo traffic as a bonus.
One of my newer site's currently gets more traffic than google but that's simply because it's so new and hasn't built up a strong enough reputation to compete with site's using the same keyword in Google. Yahoo and MSN are easier to "spam" your way to the top in..Although that's not what I do at all.
I get more traffic from both msn and yahoo than google. For some reason msn thinks my site is so good (hehe) that it sends me a pretty ammount of traffic everyday.
I have been ranking well in Google for some time but only recently have i noticed a move up the yahoo serps. Who knows?
I get more traffic in Google then yahoo and I think it is because People used Google more than yahoo.
My Google, Yahoo traffic ratio is around 100:2. If my sites get 102 unique visits a day 100 of them ae from Google and 2 of them are from Yahoo. To be frank, I don't care about optimizing my sites to Yahoo, that's way I faill miserably when it comes to getting traffic from Yahoo.
Mine are equally divided. I get about 1600 unique visitors a day. Yahoo just edges out Google slightly.
Is yahoo really easier to rank? It could just be that googles algo doesn't match your seo but yahoo does. That doesn't make it easier, just makes it different.
