Hi I think my site is banned in yahoo since it is live no body see my site at yahoo. But it is seen in google and msn, But i am able to see my sites back links and site index pages at yahoo site explorer. Could some one suggest how we came to know that my site is banned or not? And why site is not see in Yahoo? I am looking for replies. Thanks
Was your site ever on Yahoo? Sometimes it takes longer for your website to get indexed. Do you have any backlinks from other websites that Yahoo has banned? Are you over using your keywords? These are a few reasons why you might be banned, but I you site was not previously indexed I would not panic just yet.
What do you mean nobody can see it? Are you talking in the SE rankings, or are you talking when someone enters www.yourwebsite.com in the address bar the site doesn't come up? If it's the first then wait it out and keep building your SEM. If it's the second and it's been months after the website launch you will probably have to go back and reevaluate your links and everything to find the reason why you are not listed. There's tons of reasons..
I mean that my site is not seen in yahoo since its live, its a old domain since 2006. Now please suggest why my site is not been seen in yahhoooo by any keywords. While i have more 300 links in yahoo and all pages are cached by yahoo. Despite being all pages are cached and having back links my site is not seen in yahooo. While my other new site which have very few links in yahoo. It is seen by all the important keywords. Please suggest me. thanks
Yahoo is quite selective and takes a lot of time to index your site. I had that problem initially. Even now only 10% of my traffic comes from Yahoo. People mostly use Google.. this is even after having a lot of backlinks on Yahoo.
Each search engine has their own algorithm when it comes to rankings. Just keep working on content, links, etc. and hopefully it will change. Good luck
Hi, If you were in Yahoo's index in the past but now you aren't, you may be banned by Yahoo. You can ask Yahoo for the status of your site using this URL Status Review Request form http://add.yahoo.com/fast/help/us/ysearch/cgi_urlstatus. This form page details how to verify that your aren't in the index and provides links to helpful Yahoo pages. Before submitting the URL Status Review Request form you should review Yahoo's Content Quality Guidelines and also check your site's robots.txt file to be sure you haven't accidentally blocked Yahoo's spider (Slurp) I think it will help You.
I think you have to start work on RSS, Dir. and webblogs. yahoo love link from this and release from baned.
Doesnt yahoo use the same search engine as msn? They look so similar. I doubt its banned. did you try entering the exact url in yahoo?
Well, I don;t know nicely about yahoo.But this is 100% true that none of the search engines have same algorith for data mining. As well, if you can find your website while searching your domain name like http://www.yoursite.com and shows the result then surely you are not banned. and as you have stated that you have 300 backlinks from yahoo then how can you be banned.
I know from experience Yahoo takes time, but my new site is very slow. Yahoo only has the main page indexed. google has over 600 pages, MSN over 300. Here are the facts: 1) My site is about 4 months old 2) I paid the 299 for the directory listing 90 days ago 9I know that don't help anyway) 3) I submit sitemaps to Yahoo Site Explorer 4) I have a robots.txt file. Does it look ok?: 5) According to my stats, Yahoo Slurp takes 1 hit every couple of weeks. When my site was about 30 days old there was a spike in visits from Slurp.
i dont think that your site is banned at yahoo.may be you are not getting much hits from yahoo on your site related keywords
If Yahoo site explorer is showing pages indexed other than your homepage then you have not been banned.
