Old content + new domain = Yahoo Love?

    I have no idea why, but Yahoo loves my new domain. The weird thing is that it's the same content from my old domain, but I changed domain names and did a 301 redirect and now it's ranking in Yahoo (I was no where to be seen in Yahoo before). Very wierd! :confused:

    Is it an expired domain that you purchased? I wonder if it has many backlinks built up already.

    Nope. New domain. I put up a "coming soon" page for a little while and it was a PR1, my old site was a PR5.

    Yahoo has a 'reverse' sandbox.. new sites often pop to the top for a while. Enjoy!
