My sites always rank better in Yahoo! I dont deal with Google, I let them be. If they want to give me high I take it, low I dont care. So I simply aim at Yahoo, MSN will catch on too. For promotions to get my sites high and earning I use Blackhat techniques.
Yahoo is easier to rank than google. With google you need quality backlinks, not just unique content + on-site SEO. Build backlinks for your keywords - and see if you can rank in the top 10 on google.
I think you can earn a good ranking quite easily in yahoo (with out much effort because the way the yahoo compiles its results) than in google. Since google is the major search engine used by one and all, it would be always better to get top rank in google. Aim for high!
Good news I am ranking in 3rd page in yahoo(not google)with keyword "canvas bags". Because Yesterday i changed the content of the website a bit. But google has not updated and crawled for my changes. I also wrote an article reletd to my website and uploaded to my site. Google has also not crawled for that page. How much time google takes for crawling when there r changes in site. Yahoo is very fast.
i can tell you what i think: firts,you dont have adsense at your web site,google is a company and they earn money from the adsense.If you have adsense and have good click rates,then google send more... like i wrote before,this is what i think,it is marketing and i think like this... I'm thinking like this because of my page,i opened my page 7-8 months ago and i have too much clicks at adsense.I'm not getting too much money from the clicks (4-5 cents average) but people click the ads and google earn money (even they dont give me too much),thats why i think google likes my page and most of the keywords my page is at top 5!!!
