Link From Yahoo Profile

Discussion in 'Link Development' started by socialhuman, Mar 6, 2007.

    I noted that one high-ranking site had a link from a Yahoo Profile. Considering that Yahoo has top ranks in Google and Alexa, shouldn't a link from anywhere in Yahoo be a valuable link?

    What do experienced members think?

    Yahoo is a huge, saturated site. On top of that they are probably using nofollow. Even though every little helps i would not personally bother with this.

    can't hurt to add your url to your yahoo profile.. it's just like ( well sorta ) adding your url to your DP profile..

    It isn't a great link, but a links, a link ;)

    If that link has some good PR that should give you a good result. But most of the time, it doesn't have a good PR as it is a simple yahoo profile, thats why it doesn't come in any good :)

    Yeah, that's my take too. It does not hurt to add your link there.

    I don't think it add much value. There are thousands of yahoo profiles out there and they have nothing to do in SEO.
