Yahoo not returning hits

**hairee** · 06-04-2011 10:51 AM

We have google ripping thru our sites and google generates a lot of good hits.

Issue is yahoo is also crawling every day but it generates no hits at all or maybe one a month.

Is there a way to assist yahoo? Seems strange that yahoo never returns us any hits?

Really the strategy is simple and it involves signing up for a MyYahoo page and using the RSS Headlines feature. This feature allows you to track a variety of blogs via RSS. Simply add your own RSS feeds and it seems that Yahoo adds them to its own tracking system which must be linked to their indexing system.

You may notice the increase in traffic and hits through yahoo too.

The fact is it takes too much work to optimize your site on yahoo and still get low or no hits. Just stick to Google.

Why not use Google? Yahoo seems to consider the keywords and contents more!
