How optimize website for yahoo

[The Old Sarge]

In fairness everything said here holds true, except Yahoo do not have a search engine, you are optimizing for Bing who provide Yahoo's results, You will find it easier to rank but more frustrating as spammers will consistently be beating you. However if you are a Business to business service there is a lot of evidence suggesting that Bing traffic converts much better.

Are you confusing Yahoo! with MSN?

Bing supply all of Yahoo's search results, have done for over a year now, the question asker would do well to log in to MSN/Bing webmaster tools to see what they say about how to rank within their system

I was just making the technical (and somewhat pedantic) point that Yahoo have no independent search results. Just take a look at the bottom of any Yahoo search page and you will find - Powered by Bing™

And yes it is still much easier to get a Spammy crappy site to rank in Bing than Google, although no question they are getting better.

Optimization is to make your site flawless, present it as as you can. So its not dependent on any of search engine.

If a site is truly independent of any search engine, why would SEO (Search Engine Optimization) be necessary?

Hey Guys!

In my experience, I would have to say that I haven't found there to be much different to both platforms.

I should say though that I found a free tool that helped me with my wordpress website/blog..

All you do is search for wordpress SEO and this is a tool that tells you exactly how you should be setting out your page. This will help, as it will enable you to get higher place in all search engines.

Also, you NEED to make sure that your "Keyword" you are focusing on isn't too saturated within your page. Therefore, use it enough times to give the search engines the most hope in picking it up..

Hope this helped!

Thanks,
Tom Glover
