    Yahoo does not send as many visitors as Google.. but my personal experience says that these visitors do convert well and give excellent monetizing opportunity! :)

    If you rank high enough, you will get plenty of visitors from Yahoo, enough to make a webmaster happy. I have worked with some clients that were relatively low on Google (page 6 and below) and very high on Yahoo (page 1 and 2) and did quite well with that.

    Second to Google, Yahoo sends me the most SE traffic. So my answer to this question would be YES, yahoo is a good source for traffic!

    Yahoo is really good source then google because google use page rank system.Yahoo give more important for unique content and back link count and google base on many things to rank your site.

    In my case, i do get more visitors from Google instead of yahoo. if you have done proper keyword research and analysis for the yahoo then you can get more visitors.

    half of my traffic is from yahoo, its easy to rank on yahoo as well. trust me most people going after google for there seo, there are very few who do seo for the yahoo or bing bot and those who actually do they will rank extremely well. i did it on one of my sport website it is on top of yahoo out of 220million competition! and i am receiving 1k visitors daily from yahoo. Only thing is that my niche is not something that you can monetize easily but am still making around $10 a day with that and all i did was 'seo' for yahoo instead of google. It is almost the same thing but there is a way which you can tell a search engine that we are optimizing for them. ;)

    Beside Google, Yahoo is second most used search engines. You can get good traffic and sales conversion if your website is well optimized.

    Can somebody tell me the exact URL where I can submit my site's sitemap? I have submitted my sitemap to google. I think Google is great as it ranks sites with a little delay but when it ranks your site high, it is really worht it (traffic and sales wise) and it really means HIGH RANK. Google monitors a lottt lottt of things before it actually ranks your site. this is the reason it is hard to rank your site high in google. however, yahoo is the second big master.

    Any traffic is good - but you will not get nearly as much traffic from a page one on Yahoo as you would from G.

    I'm not sure how about others, but this is my experience, I get better quality of visitor from yahoo than google. I mean in term of conversion of my salespage, I got more sales from people come from yahoo than google. It is double. Compare this, from 100 visitors from google, I got less than 5 buyers, but from 100 visitors from yahoo, I got about 13.
    But, the problem is, my visitor from google is 10 time from yahoo.
