I have site and it in page #1 in google, but in page #7 in yahoo with the same keyword. Is google and yahoo use different algoritm? How I can increase rank in yahoo?
Google is designed especially for search engine purpose. But in yahoo. .. Search engine is part of its services.. Redefine your META keywords in your home page, which will help you to bring the raning # 1 in yahoo also...
meta keyword redefine in home page, means create title, meta desc, meta keyword targeting to your main services - well optimized in home page
To rank in yahoo you should create content using your taregeted keywords because yahoo concentrate their rankings based on the content keywords.
A major difference between Google and Yahoo is how they weigh backlinks. With Yahoo you just need a large quantity of links with good link anchor text. For Google, more weight is placed on link quality. So for Google rankings you don't necessarily need as many backlinks. Both Yahoo and Google take link aging into consideration. So sometimes it just takes longer to get rankings on Yahoo. Another thing that Yahoo likes is good link anchor text in all your internal links. So make sure you don't waste any internal links by using 'home' as the link anchor text...unless of course you are actually optimizing for the word home.
I'll take your problem anyday. Much better to have your site ranked on the first page of Google than on Yahoo. I think they weigh back links differently, as others have mentioned.
yahoo are not weighing backlinks like google does.. but more on keywords and content..this is just my understanding.. so to increase your rank. work more on content.
They don't get links the same dud if it makes any sense. Google tends to rank better with backlinks that have your anchor and at the same time the page linking to yours has pagerank. Yahoo doesn't work that way.
Optimize your meta tags and the content on your pages. Yahoo ranks more for on page SEO as Google focuses alot on quality backlinks.
Of course they use different algorithms , you shouldn't be surprised about different site positions in these two engines. Also 1stand 7th position is not a big difference.
Posting on forums and including the link in your signature is one good way. Also, begin to research search engine optimization and you will find many good techniques to use. Hope that helps.
yahoo pays more attention to content and meta tag, as many one say yahoo gives weight to no follow links also
Well, they are different i'm sure that whoever helped you with seo targeted more on being #1 in google than in yahoo, since you have to write meta tags, etc...
I think you should proud with this,when Google already put you high I dont think you need to worry about yahoo,people use more google search then yahoo does.,so thinking about this,keep updating your content for Google should be your behavior to win the competitions
Yes ofcourse...Both have their own algorithms to rank sites.. For me, getting into top of google is much easier than yahoo.
