I've done the same basic idea with a few different blogs. Yahoo has some of them indexed (with old entries), others it hasn't noticed. Not sure what the differences are. Well, there are dangers if you do this too aggressively, as there are with any SEO technique. Google really frowns on this sort of thing, after all. If you have some sort of funky site, I've seen all kinds of recommendations for feedburner.com. I recently had every blog under one account disappear. Along with blogs to which that account was a "contributor." Blogger hasn't gotten back to me about it, and I don't figure it's worth recreating the blogs (since I hadn't bothered to make back-ups). From now on, I'm doing one blog per account. Actually, I've been thinking about setting up some sort of co-op where we all do that. Add RSS feeds to "My Yahoo." I figure that the more accounts looking at a feed, the better. RFC822 date format: day month year (21 Jul 05) Nasty Y2K 2 digit years... You might be able to add the time: 21 Jul 2005 17:15:33 So far, from my research, it looks like Word Press is the way to go. I've run across articles about lots of nasty security issues with MT. I don't even remember now how old they were, so they may all be fixed now. I just don't trust software that wasn't designed from the ground up with security in mind. Put up links to pages deeper in your site. (Or have you done that already?) Yet another reason to ditch blogger.
Not to sound like a jerk, but is it possible that all your comments could have fit in one post? Just curious.
His posts seemed so stinkin random - I think he should have quoted the people he was answering or something???
Give it another five days! As I said before, it took me nine days to get in. Nine days is much better than nine weeks or nine months!! I got indexed when Yahoo had the big update yesterday. Now I'm trying it with a non-blog site that has RSS.
Now I know why double posting is not allowed ... those back to back ones are annoying. I like giving the benefit of the doubt considering many newbies are not very forum savvy....however: it's time for him to reconsider his style
Yahoo indexed me a couple of days after my site came online. They only indexed 8 pages at first, then added another 10. Then a month and a half went by, and they now have almost half of my 9000-plus pages. MSN, on the other hand, grabbed about half of my pages in one fell swoop. And I didn't apply to either one. Go figure.
I never apply to SEs, they just search mine(my websites that is, not my blogs). Hey I'm having probs with ping-o-matic, I tried submitting my blog and it gave me an error, I'll probably try again tomorrow, maybe in a different way. All I did was put the address to the blog, are you guys doing anything different?
isaiasd2003 ping-o-matic for yahoo wont work just do the ping manually in your browser (and bookmark that URL ) then it will work like http :// api. my.yahoo. com/rss/ping?u= http ://www. yourdomain.com/blog/ without the spaces in url of course ... why no ping-o-matic ? no idea but one possibility is that Yahoo API is restricted to a certain number of access per IP ping-o-matic using 1 IP for all users and myself an IP used only by me for Yahoo API work may explain why a direct ping works ...
I cant believe people arent updated with this trick yet. I see many old users are amazed! You should of read about this in seochat months months ago!!
it look like geocities account can help new website get into yahoo fast too... it my new website 3 days to be indexed by yahoo after i put up links in geocities website anyone else got any experience on this method?
Depends- sometimes it indexes the entire site (you can see other pages when you search), but i find it only indexes my index page. I dunno why...
uhhhhh, it said:: Refresh requested: http://games-and-online-games.blogspot.com/ Is it suppose to do that? or did I do submit it wrong?
