Is there Yahoo 'dance' ?

Discussion in 'Yahoo' started by Tuning, Jan 23, 2005.

    As the title says, is there some thing called yahoo dance ? ( Inspired from google dance..) :(

    If not, i don't know what to call this phenomenon. :eek:
    SERPs for my newly inaugrated site changes every hour or so. moving from #6 to #22 then back to #6.

    I have another doubt about yahoo showing these results from different datacentres. I'm not sure about this. If anyone knows a tool that checks the different yahoo datacentres, please let me know.

    Thanks in advance.

    Yahoo does tend to update about once a month. It is possible during the update to see different results.

    Tha past few days I have seen some movement in Yahoo more than the normal 1-3 spots.

    Yahoo seems to be switching back and forth between two versions. On one version, one of our search terms, baby shower invitations, is number two, and on the second version, this search term is no where to be found!! This situation has been going on for about a month. I hope yahoo settles down with a final version soon!!

    Anyone else experiencing this situation?

    We've noticed the same thing for one of our terms late last week.

    Yahoo's about overdue for a BIG update, isn't it?

    Yahoo crawls my site about 4 times a day. I changed my title and some text on my homepage about 5 days ago and the changes have not yet shown up in yahoo.

    Craige...I was shocked to see this happen so quickly.

    By chance are you in the yahoo directory? If so, does it help your placement in results there...

    No, I am not listed in the yahoo directory. I am not sure if it will help increase rankings. Has anyone noticed an increase in their rank after getting listed in the yahoo directory?

    Maybe I should pay the $299 to see if it does.
