Yahoo! Out of Control!

    I have a crazy number of visitors to my site from Yahoo! Slurp at www.windychat.com for quite a while now..

    I haven't checked bandwidth, maybe they just crawl differently from Google so it shows up as a lot of different visitors, not sure.

    but anyway, Yahoo! obviously has slurped up my content, they found me, so I have achieved that part.

    However, they send less than 1% of the traffic Google does.. not in line with their supposed market share.

    For main keywords, I can rank as well on Yahoo as I do on Google, but Google sends traffic on *lots* of different phrases, not just those main keywords.

    Is there some trick or thing I should do with Yahoo! to send me as much traffic as their market share would suggest?

    Thanks!

    YOu need to be top 2 - not just top 10 like it works with Google. This is the main point to get visitors from Yahoo..
