    I have 4 feeds: xml, html, rss, txt.

    What is the best?
    I can put all of them (same data in any type of file) but it's recommended?


    Thanks

    Not really a feed, but I think this might be usefull for you.
    I just did a sitemap for yahoo yesterday for one of my website.

    As it turns out Yahoo wants your sitemap to be called urllist.txt (just a simple .txt file with all your urls on a new line). It's the same input field where you submit your feed.

    Check:
    https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/submit?ei=UTF-8

    I think you must be logged in with your yahoo account.

    Hope this helps

    Thanks,

    What is the different between the page you gave and this page:
    https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/mysites

    There is "Feeds" section, you can put there your feeds.

    So what is the best way? using "your" page or "mine"? :confused:

    I used text links for my site some times. It works well. But I think the best method to get indexed on search engine is to submit feeds.

    It is better to make image feeds to index your site's images by yahoo search. All feed creation techniques are mentioned on yahoo site.
