Domain penalized by Yahoo! ?

Well, Fonz, if you compare your site in siteexplorer and Linkster's site in siteexplorer, you'll get the good news that you aren't on the yahoo hard ban manual list. (However it works.)

But, clearly yahoo doesn't like something about your site - because, like I said, 'smiling pussy' is an odd enough keyword, that with your 24k inbound links you should absolutely rank high for it in an ordinary search.

One of the theories I've heard is that an algo has taken over the role of the manual list (that presumably Linkster is on). Jay was talking about this idea in one of my serach engine chats. That kinda fits what we see when we look for your site in yahoo search.

But, you pretty much have to accept that yahoo doesn't like linklists and linklist type sites, doesn't want them in their results, and has some way of supressing them.

UW, what type of site is it that you have in there, that you've been mentioning? Is it on a linklist type domain? Or is it a blog or some kind of content domain?

I'm still wondering if we could find out for sure that if a page shows up with just the url listing in site explorer, thats how it looks in the regular serps as well. There's that odd line "authenticate this site to see more" that appears in the siteexplorer listings...
