Yahoo - What & How

At least a lot of those pages on that serp are yours, Ram- you probably would get less of a percentage on a google serp.

It's curious that a lot of big tgps are in the yahoo serps and do pretty well for some competitive terms, but many linklists are not, and apparently baberankings and other tgps are not.

I haven't heard of a good explanation for the logic of how these various bigger heavily linked sites are either selected in or selected out of yahoo.

There was the usual speculation that it was done to force people to buy in pages with yahoo paid-- but I haven't personally heard of a single confirmed case in which a linklist or tgp wasn't in yahoo, paid for spidering, and then was in.

But, I pretty much have totally ignored yahoo pay to spider since it was first announced. I get in okay for free, why pay?

It might be worth trying to buy your way in- let's see if anyone else speaks up who has tried it.
