    it also depends on keyword , what your keyword and really it is so competitive and serchable , if less searchbale then less traffic , but you should not expect more traffic from yahoo.because Google widley used all across the World.

    I have sites which rank #1 on G, with tens of thousands of natural inbound links, and on Yahoo they are hardly anywhere to be found. Yahoo seems to have largely neglected their search engine technology the past few years... now they're kind of like a run down abandoned house that is beyond repair. I see no future for Yahoo's search technology the way it is... I wouldn't even bother with them if I were you.

    Getting traffic from Yahoo isn't what you should be worrying about. Especially since they signed a deal with Microsoft. You should be worrying about your Google traffic and your Bing traffic. I'm sure you've got that covered though!

    Only 2 possibilites -:

    1. Your keywords is not so competetive and number of monthly searchers are low. Double check.
    2. Your site is not in number one position for that keyword, maybe you are missing something. Double check

    Ya i agreed that yahoo gives very less traffic but may be its possible that your keyword is not more competitive compare to others so that you don't get more traffic..

    Bing, I heard that name before. What is it? LOL

    Bing Search sucks. There is no such thing as indexing in Bing.

    I guess your keyword is not that competitive if you are not satisfied with your Yahoo traffic. I admit that traffic from Yahoo is low in numbers as compared to google... but whatever be the numbers, I find them really of good quality and offering excellent monetizing benefits! :)

    Google will take 70 % of traffic in Organic search, remaining 30 % other search share it. So you have this visitor in yahoo for your main keywords

    I think it depends on your target market also. the niche you are in can make a huge difference.

    Traffic from Yahoo is high quality for me. Better than Bing and Google.
