    I rely on Site Explorer for more accurate results than any of the other SEs

    urllist.txt is yahoo's version of a sitemap
    simple text file
    1 URL per line
    exact file name = urllist.txt
    submitted in the feed submission field of yahoo's various free submission pages OR yahoo site explorer

    not at all
    NO xml file - NO html
    plain text file only
    1 URL per line
    hence very simple but needs the precise file-name = "urllist.txt"

    Google allows any name but G sitemap needs to be submitted each with its name
