    When you have fixed up your site to comply with their (yahoo's) standards, is it necessary to submit it to them or do I have to just wait.. and wait.. and wait?

    I am in the exact same situation. Plus I have requested a 2nd review, within 10 mins. a 'canned' Yahoo letter was sent back to me:
    F U Yahoo :rolleyes:. I have spent the last couple months trying to find the problem :confused:.
    Seriously, I would like to propose that we PM each other, review each other's sites looking for problems that Yahoo may see, more eyes= better results. PM me if your interested.

    I am working on a site that was doing massive cross linking and once I get that taken care of I think it should be OK. Where did you send you inquiry to at yahoo?

    Web Gazelle, you have to request a re-review. You can do so at the following URL:

    http://add.yahoo.com/fast/help/us/ysearch/cgi_rereview

    Be very sure you fixed everything before submitting. They say it takes weeks to review, but they got back to me the next day with a denial.

    I heard the only way to get your site back if you know somebody who works at Yahoo. I have ask my sites to be review and re-reviewed, all I get is their automatic email reply without any real answers.

    Same here. It seems an eternal loop of canned response. Although Yahoo states that you can only request this once with a reply any subsequent submissions will NOT have response, I have submitted 4 times and received the same response every time :mad:.
    blah, blah, blah, within hours of my request for re-review. The latest I am hearing is Yahoo has BIG problems in their chatrooms, specifically perverts trying to lewer young girls in. This is their primary focus right now. Does this mean that they don't really care about the accuracy of SERPS?

    The reason I am wired up about this is Yahoo converts into sales better than any other SE, in my experience. Although they don't refer much traffic what thay do send converts unbelieveably well.

    Hi guys, how can you contact Y! for an INITIAL review?

    My site has NEVER had any more pages indexed (more than the index page) and it has been longer than a few months since live going live. The form posted here talks about a "URL Status - Second Review Request"....I am not up to my second review, just an initial review.

    Is there a different form for that..or no such form for us that can't get their sites indexed once.

    Really frustrating seeing the Y! bot visit my site (pages that are linked to only) and not crawl any further, and not index any more pages than the index page.
