anyone happen to know where I should try to send something like this? realize it's a long shot but figure it can't hurt
Really? Is there a web site that states this we can look at...perhaps we're suppose to use a certain subject or such, as it used to be with Google?
Yes, I inquired about one of my sites and got a personal response. I don't know the web page though. I sent to reportsearchspam AT yahoo.com first, but it seems webmasterworld own this email address, they were nice and told me this email address.
I used something like "Website problem". I don't think you need any specific subjects since the email will be read by human.
I had a domain that I bought where I found out after I bought it that it was banned from yahoo. Took me a while to figure it out (call me stupid). Anyways, on Friday night I dropped a note to Yahoo that there seemed to be a problem with the domain and that I just bought it a few months ago. By last night it was showing up with proper title and description in the serps, and by this morning I was ranked for several keywords. So it can happen depending on the circumstances. Obviously mine might have been a bit different because the infractions were likely from a site that was around a long time ago. Anyways good look. I found found Yahoo to be amazingly responsive when I have asked them questions. (Which always seems to be Friday night for some reason) I wasn't really expecting to be ranked within 36 hours of sending them a short e-mail but I was.
I just sent them an email on my site. We'll see what happens. I told them that I noticed a ton of scraper sites linking to me and I think that causes my problem in yahoo. We'll see what happens.
I was reincluded in less than 24 hours after emailing them. however, I recieved no response to the email. crazy
got an email now: quite surprised they actually responded and this resulted in something. I'm impressed !
I like the "play fair" comment LOL So you got reincluded before the email? Does that bode good or bad for others that got it first? hmmmmm...
Face it, until yahoo changes it's algo, it is doomed to suck ass! one of my lilly white sites www.provaya.com has been almost completely eliminated from the serps. Meanwhile we enjoy page 1-3 listings on over 40 keywords for Goog;e fuck yahoo, until they get their heads out of their asses, they will be a spammer's paradise.
