    Dude, I don't understand...your signature say "SEO Consultant":confused:

    Either way, I guess you love optimizing for Google and MSN rather than Yahoo...MEE TOO!

    If it's blogging my experience is that pinging/tags and having a 6+ month aged/old domain and posting consistent topic every week is helping you with your rankings in Google...am I close amigo?

    If so, that may be the reason for great results in Google...but Yahoo....in-a-nutshell - links, links, links! Hope Microsoft ends up buying them soon, might be great seeing Microsoft vs Google type of battle online in bigger ways:D

    But I think back links are only useful for google.

    Sign up for a yahoo site explorer account and submit a site map directly to yahoo. After you have done that, sign up for a yahoo blog log account and add your sites to your profile. That give you a link to your site from inside yahoo.

    After you sign up for both of those, create yourself a yahoo 360 account, and put a link to your site in your profile.

    When your done doing all of that, you should have at least 2 links to your site from inside yahoo and you should be submitting a site map to yahoo site explorer.

    All of those will help improve your ranking in yahoo.

    Agree with most. Yahoo doesn't take very long to catch on to backlinks - and any backlinks, they aren't too picky about quality of links but rather quantity.

    In this way, posting on classified sites and directories will actually give you better ratings in yahoo. The other thing about Yahoo is your domain name. Unlike Google, if you can match your domain keywords to the search keywords you are almost guaranteed a #1 ranking eventually. Too bad Yahoo traffic doesn't convert well.

    I don't understand mixing movie trailers with SEO? Or a Building directory with web design.
    Also all of the ads, some quite spammy with others that try virus scare tactics will get you nowhere and just piss people off. I know I clicked away from your site when they all started popping up telling me something was wrong with my computer system. It makes it look like your site is infected with a virus.

    Yahoo will pick your site up when it gets around to it. As mentioned lots of backlinks help with them.

    Good luck

    Yahoo put more weights on the on-page factor, so you could add more keywords on the page. Also, they tend to put a lot of weight on the domain as well.
