Missing from Yahoo! ?

    I know I should expect a lot fewer hits from Yahoo and MSN but this is ridiculous!

    I rank well in Yahoo for some keywords related to my site.

    But maybe I can do something so Yahoo crawls deeper and gives me hits for more search phrases?

    Let me know if there are some secret optimizations I should be doing for Yahoo!

    Thanks,
    Eric

    No. But why would Google be giving so many more hits? I read about the search engine market share, I thought Yahoo should be giving me about half of what Google does?

    Is the site in the exact same position for the exact same keywords?

    Yes, basically.. I actually rank better in Yahoo than Google.

    I think it's all the little stuff, like I get 1200 hits from Google for individual phrases. So Yahoo! isn't doing a deep crawl and spidering my whole content and forum ? I guess the answer I was hoping to hear is that I can do a special map txt file to make Yahoo spider me more completely (and MSN).

    I think but i'm not sure that Yahoo has about 30% of search engine share.
