I was checking where my site was indexing in the big 3 engines under both its page name, What U Did Today, and the alternate spelling, What You Did Today. Both Google and MSN have my site pulling up in the top 5 results under both spellings, but I am unable to locate my site on Yahoo in search results of What You Did Today in the top 50. It is the #1 result under What U Did Today. Any ideas as to why there would be such a large disparity between how Yahoo is indexing that spelling compared to what Google and MSN are doing?
Because they are three completely different search engines with very different ranking algorithms. Being #1 in one doesn't mean you will even rank in another. You should also check the keywords or phrases you are targeting to make sure they are terms people actually search for. It doesn't do any good to rank for a keyword that few or zero people search for because it won't bring you any traffic. http://www.digitalpoint.com/tools/suggestion/
