Just lost 60% of my search engine saturation and 20% of my links in Yahoo overnight

    What gives? Any change in their algorithms? Hiccup? I had about 3100 links in yahoo which dropped to 2500 since yesterday, and my search engine saturation dropped 60%....all overnight.

    All the other search engines are holding steady or gaining.

    lol, I don't know if this will help or not but www.vbseo.com. They give you a .htaccess this to work all over your site.

    It may be a temporary fluctuation. Have you changed anything significant recently?

    Did you experience any downtime? Did you change servers? Has your usage gone up lately?

    It's funny you mention that, because I am just about to change servers, but have not started yet.

    The place hosting my site is going to be giving me access to their FTP tonight to initiate the transfer, and will email me an SQL Zip for the data.

    None of the other search engines were affected. Just Yahoo. There has not been any downtime and yes, my site's activity has doubled since about a month ago.
