    Hi, i wonder why one of my sites can't get good rank in Yahoo although it is ranked first in a competitive keyword. I have learned a lot about SEO from this forum and some good blogs but usually they taught us about SEO for Google. Yes, it works. But I want to know what is seo for yahoo, can I get a good article about it?

    You do not have to care about Yahoo a lot if you rank well in Google. :) Because yahoo and MSN won't send you so much traffic as Google can. :)
    Still I think that you have to get as much back links as you can to rank well in Yahoo. And you must be listed in Yahoo directory. :)

    I usually SEO for Yahoo and Google appears to like it as well. I guess the SEO does not flow the other direction.

    Anyways, here is a good place to get you started: How to Optimize for Yahoo!

    if the site is working really well in Google, there's a high possibility that your site can also do good in Yahoo.. Though SE's do have their own ranking factors, i believe that all of them is in favor of quality links and quality content
