Google vs. Yahoo

Can anyone explain how my website is shown in Yahoo on the first page for certain keywords, while on the 50 page on Google? any idea how to make my site more Google like?

 

Every SE has its own ways to index/rank pages. You should focus on Google SEO now

 

I know that most people use Google and this is why I try to focus on it. But maybe using this information I can understand what I need to do to go up faster in Google. And how come the different between the search engine is so big?

 

Both are different algo..

 

google and yahoo both are the biggest search engine, google has own algorithm and yahoo has own algorithm, than they index, rank provide according the algorithm.

 

make back links of your website to get high position in Google rank.
forum posting is best way for getting back links.

 

More backlink can help your page to rank well at google, as they consider different policy than yahoo to rank a page well.

 

i think page rank is decided by the google only.

 

google is the search engine through which millions of users are surfing and yahoo is a community type search engine

 

I like google more than Yahoo

 

Google is better at weeding out weeds like your site that offers no services and sells no products.

 

You need lots of backlink with your target keyword, to get to the top of Google....

 

If people knew the perfect algorithm people would trick it for sure

 

Both are different and i like google.

 

Google has a bigger market share than Yahoo!, so it's natural that most people "like" it. That said, you'd be smart not to underestimate a good placement in Yahoo... if it brings you traffic cherish it, I say, independently of what search engine it is.

 

Well tell me tell you that both Google and yahoo have their own rules to decide that where your site is to be placed .. means they read your website by their own way.. if yahoo!! puts you in 1st page then you may say that your website doing good seo according to Yahoo means your website have a importance in the eyes of yahoo .. but not Google..

 

Search Engine have unique way of crawling your site, just continue what you are doing and and do more SEO.

 

I think you should read the yahoo strategy to index your page and Google strategy...To give importance to google is more beneficial for your site.

 

so from what I understand here Yahoo does not use backlinks as much as Google

 

Every SE is different. But don't sleep on Yahoo. I love it. Most people ignore Yahoo / MSN, making it easier to rank high. Think of all the people who use IE, which uses Bing as the default search.
