    do you use the same command for yahoo and google to see how many pages are indexed?
    when i do site:www.662mob.com on yahoo it says 243 pages and when i do it on google it says 7,400+

    If this is correct how do i get more of my pages indexed on yahoo?
    Thank you

    site:
    This allows one to find all documents within a particular domain and all it's subdomains. Very good way to find out if the search engine has found all of you're pages and indexed them fully.
    Example: site:creativeconfusion.net

    hostname:
    This allows you to find all documents from a particular host only. Example: hostname:toolbar.google.com

    link:
    This allows one to find documents that link to a particular url. A great way to see if you're link exchanges are working and showing up.
    Example: link:http://www.creativeconfusion.net

    url:
    This allows you to find a specific document in the Yahoo index.
    Example: url:http://www.creativeconfusion.net/search_engines/yahoo-commands.html

    inurl:
    This will allow you to find a specific keyword as part of indexed urls.
    Example: inurl:search_engines

    intitle:
    This allows one to find a specific keyword as part of the indexed titles in the Yahoo search engine. Great way of searching for spam.
    Example: intitle:Search Engine News

    or, more simply put - yes, you are using the correct command, BUT Yahoo! doesn't seem to index nearly as many pages. It has indexed less than a tenth of what google has indexed from our site. If you find out a secret to getting more pages indexed, I'm all ears, but I think they just don't have the server grunt to deal with it.
