Ways to secure top 10 positions in Yahoo

[kevinfg]

Hi folks,

I figure yahoo do not handle spam well. In this case, check this out. On a competitive search results of about 5 million web site, yet spam is allowed in this manner. Spam has already been reported 3 months ago, nothing was done.

http://sg.search.yahoo.com/search/sg?p=singapore+web+design&ei=UTF-8

Basically, on the first page of results,
1) www.akyweb.com/singapore_web_design.htm ,
2) www.singapore-web-design.com/singapore_web_design.htm ,
3) www.01-web-design.com/
4) www.abaqix.com/
5) www.singapore-website-design.com

and many other more domains when you access either one of their pages, its all listed below.

That prolly explains that you can have 101 domains name with similar content, just change few words here and there, you can manipulate almost the entire listing to yourself.

Well this is not working as well in Google:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=singapore+web+design&btnG=Google+Search

Do you think that these sites are all included in Overture Site Match?

The reason they are not doing well exactly in Google, simple because Google values more in back link while Yahoo does not. If you want all of the spam domains to rank well, all of the domains must have a substantial amount of back link to each domains. In Yahoo, as long you done the required SEO, a few link exchange here and there, you should be rated very well. I presume lots more on keyword density.

Well I dont exactly agree with your statement above. Question for you then if it is so easy in Yahoo then why are you not ranking with your competitors? Are you using Site Match?

I actually did pretty okay with Yahoo, http://sg.search.yahoo.com/search/sg?p=singapore+web+hosting&fr=fp-tab-web-t&tab= , the first site www.1singaporewebhosting.com is one of mine. I haven't been using Overture Site Match yet.

Weird. Out of curiosity -- how come Yahoo is not bolding the word "web" in the titles or highlighting the word "web" in the cache when doing a search on "singapore web hosting (http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=singapore+web+hosting&fr=my_top)". It is bolding the word in the abstracts, just not the other areas.

Same thing for singapore web design (http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=singapore+web+design&ei=UTF-8&fr=my_top&fl=0&x=wrt). Other variations, same thing (such as texas web design, free web design, etc.) Quite strange.

Yes it is ronnie. Obviously "web" is a very popular term. I tried a bunch of other popular and generic terms like "sex", "internet" and others to see if they were not bolding it becase of its popularity but I could not duplicate it.

[ronniethedodger]

Also notice that "web" is being bolded in all the Sponsor Listings though. No problem there, eh?

There was a couple of the results that was bolded in the title further down the page. I tried running this query thru yahoo-watch.org to see if any of them were SiteMatch listings, but it appears that Brandt has removed the designations from those listings -- so I cannot tell if they are or not.
