Yahoo seems to be A LOT faster than google nowadays, my site was made 3 months ago, with a unique name, it's already on yahoo, but still hasn't show up on google : /
in my case google index much faster than yahoo. Please tell me how we can index our site in yahoo as faster as google. Provide some techniques...
I have been using Google from the time i learned surfing on the net. I was very happy with it. But one day I had a friend were searching the same thing. Me on my Google as usual and he was a Yahoo fan. He managed to find it much faster than me. We also had a discussion about the same and even I gave a try at yahoo. Well I must say Yahoo is better to search some websites. I dont know why but some websites rank very high on Yahoo and the same don't even show up on Google.
.info = .useless the search engines know these are 99.9% of the time useless spam sites.... I mean how serious a site can it be if they pay $1.99 for the domain when TLDs sell for $10.00 usually???? It is akin to bringing a Chevy Prizm to a drag race with an Alcohol burning funny car...... Some people have yet to realize that being cheap... gets cheap results....
Well, I can never get yahoo onto my site, google indexes it every 2 days or so, but I think yahoo doesn't do that even in months. So you must be doing something right to please yahoo.
Do you have a robots.txt file installed? Without one Yahoo usually won't index the site. Also if you use the meta keywords tag they need to be completely free of any keyword stuffing, basically Yahoo uses the meta keyword tag to spam check against page content. You can add your site to Yahoo by using the link below http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/ Submit your site in the right hand side and you can then add a meta tag to your site to verify ownership with Yahoo. Additionally make sure you use a sitemap.xml file on your sites for all search spiders to crawl, You should see Yahoo Slurp crawling your server shortly after completing the above steps.
When using sitemap, yahoo is really faster than google, I build a new site, and submit the sitemap to google and yahoo at the same time, yahoo index some pages and give me some traffic, but google is zero.
my websites also got indexed through yahoo faster than google... maybe its a case of who gets there first..
Sorry guys but i am not agree on that i have submitted my site http://www.fmgbotswana.com to yahoo but it has not index a single page of my site and even google has index many pages from the site . Can anyone guess what can be the problem ?
Even I find google indexing my blog way too quickly before yahoo... Frankly, I was little surprised by OP's post but then, replies here suggest that some people do actually get fast service from yahoo as well. Regards, RightMan
