Here's the situation. A few years ago when my site changed from a turnkey casino to a football related website I saw my yahoo results disappear. About 4 years ago I paid the $300 and was in the yahoo directory. I've never paid it again. About 3yrs ago I used a top searchengine submission program for a bit for yahoo. If I do site. www.wageronfootball.com on yahoo and now 1 result show up. The yahoo spider hits my site almost daily and has for quite some time now as I do daily modifications to my site. So this puzzles me. If I have a spider hitting my site almost daily wouldn't one think that I'd be in the results for targeted keywords??

If I go to marketleap the results for wageronfootball.com are as follows for yahoo:
For Link: www.wageronfootball.com

(http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=link%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.wageronfootball.c om&ei=UTF-8&fr=sfp&n=20&fl=0&x=wrt)

There are over 3500 results. For search engine saturation there is 1 result. Yes that's right 1??!! What am I doing wrong? Can I get any advise here? I've read your forums about paying the $300 to yahoo again but think its a waste of time..my site starts with a "W" so I'd be at the bottom anyways, I want to see my sites results in the search rankings...like I do on google and msn. (of which I have very good results in a competitive industry) so somebody please give me some advise here...can I contact Yahoo directly somewhere? I can't find any info on this. I have emailed them something similar to this note before and never heard back, but maybe I emailed the wrong department??? Please help when you can, Thanks

Well first of all do not pay yahoo anything. Second Yahoo has their head so far up their ass then tend to treat people unfairly. I would love to provide you with some answers but when it comes to yahoo there arn't any. Its a game to the yahooucks. I am sorry for your current situation there are millions of people under similiar circumstances. But most people will not take a stand against yahoo they will continue to be the most brutish search engine out there. help.yahoo.com Fun to be dumb
