I use yahoo answers becuase my site ranks well in yahoo search if I leave a link in my relevant answers. Yahoo search Dofollow yahoo links. Its my view.
yahoo: - balanced company, with very wide range of solid services and products - mature, responsible company which is obvious in how their products are released and level of follow through on its investments - google has a narrower search, while yahoo is broad. - yahoo is probably slower than google. it seems that google is more nimble as far as organization and company structure is considered.
One of the mail reason is that most we used goggle search engine not a yahoo search.But yahoo always shows accurate backlinks of a website but google donot shown exact link.
Yahoo is still used by a lot of older population that have stuck with it since the early 2000 and late 1990s... So if you have clients in that age group you can still use yahoo successfully.
Yahoo answers have become a good way to answer and ask questions and have yourself better find in the search engine result pages.. If your answers get a good vote then you are assigned a good rank..
i think yahoo is social network platform and share more information as can. google is bussiness and only good understanding can use it.
Yahoo has an excellent range of features.. But I am so used to Google now for searching and thus I use it, don't touch the yahoo bandwagon
