2 Years Later, Still no Love from Yahoo

Manoj Jasra - Friday, December 04, 2009 0 Comments



2 years ago I wrote a post titled: "Yahoo, Where is the Love?" which questioned whether or not Yahoo had issues with ranking Blogspot blogs strongly in its index. In 2007 we noticed that for the majority of our top ranking keywords in Google were well outside of the top 30 in Yahoo. Some of the key differences which exist now on our blog versus 2 years go is the addition of 40,000+ backlinks, 1000+ pages indexed and a custom domain rather than a Blogspot domain - you'd think this would help. We could also potentially conclude that readers consuming Internet Marketing / Analytics content simply don't use Yahoo.

As you can see a large percentage of our traffic comes from Search Engines:




Drilling deeper reveals that our Yahoo referrals are drastically lower than both Google and Bing, furthermore Yahoo referrals are lower than both Feedburner and Twitter.
