I am also experiencing very low traffic from yahoo or MSN, I get good traffic from google altough. I also focuses more on google optimization rather than yahoo or msn.
So, the main question: What's the secret to getting traffic from Yahoo? I too getting most of my traffic from google, very few from msn, though I'm well ranked for some keywords,& nothing from yahoo!
Having a link in Yahoo's directory seemed to help me - but I think this may not be so much the case moving forward
im pretty sure yahoo loves fresh content. i dont think they focus on backlinks as much as google does. i rank better in yahoo then google and i dont have many backlinks. but i do update every few days. they love fresh content great SEF urls keyword containing titles keywords in the content emphasis on fresh content though
Correct. And its also unstable in terms of ranking. One keyword from my site has remained in the top three while another keyword is jumping all the time and I don't know why.
