Hello DP members, My website is ranking pretty well in Google, however it displays only on the 4 page of Yahoo for my main keyword. What could be the reason for such huge discrepancy? Any advice on how to improve its ranking in Yahoo? By the way, the domain name is the keyword I am promoting. Thank you!
What is the domain name? Maybe you need to start looking into a bit more SEO. I am not going to go in and try to figure out why your site is not ranking that great in Yahoo, but its great in Google. How is your site with Bing? Just wondering because I recently learned that Yahoo is going to start using Bing for searching. Probably in September. So, I say its time to start working on the Bing listings.
loll this is certainly better than the opposite!! Google will send you the bulk of your traffic anyway. I'm not saying that you should not care at all though. Honestly, I am not a Yahoo specialist and I really don't know what you can do to rank better specifically in this search engine. But search engines will often show many discrepancies between their results. They are not the same, after all. Also, in my own experience, Google freakin' love when your keyword is also your exact domain name! But shhh don't tell everyone
It may be happen due to no. of backlinks with that anchor text increases or search volume increases. So, you try to get more backlinks which will help to get ranking in Yahoo.
Yahoo is all about builing links.. Start building your links today to climb up your ranking in yahoo.
There is a huge difference between algorithm of Yahoo and Google. Google loves (quality) links with relevancy. Yahoo loves links (quantity). If you want to get good results with Yahoo then work on Blogs.
Yahoo seems to like building anchor text links with the keyword you want to rank for. I am in the same situation my Google rank is higher then the Yahoo rank
As my experience I seen many times that Title, Description and content is more important for yahoo search so if you will optimize these things according to keyword I hope you will get rank well in yahoo also
The domain name doesn't need to be that catchy, as people are saying, that for yahoo you need quantity of backlinks so start working on the blogs.
well the title of this thread sounds very familiar, where else did you post this query? I mean which other forums have you posted this query?
