Default Re: Hand Jobs and Yahoo

I have a client that used to be #1 in Yahoo for his primary keyword phrase, but got demoted to #1000+ due to being linked to some "bad" neighborhoods. We found out that this was not a filter issue, but done by a Yahoo editor.

I helped him review and revamp his reciprocal links, but he has not been able to get anything like his previous position restored. Apparently, editors at Yahoo change frequently and the previous point of contact is no longer there. It has been almost a year now and my client has had no success in getting the issue resolved. He was so enfuriated that he pulled his $1,500/month spending on Yahoo Search Marketing and now just rides his Google laurels.
