    Okay we all know they are old. We all know that the SE's dont like them and we all know your probably not going to hit the first page of the SERPs with them. However, I have noticed with a few small keywords/phrases that are rarely searched - my doorway page will hit #1 or #2 in Yahoo with. Here's my main question's..

    What kind of penalty does your site really take from them? Which SE's frown upon them more than others and are they grounds for being banned or getting lower rankings for your main page and your main keywords?


    Thanks in advance..

    hi,

    A lot of site has #1 or #2 SERPS in yahoo.com without using doorway page,

    why you want to satisfy yourself that doorway page is cause behind your success.

    bad practice can give you some satisfaction but not is the key of success
