#1 again. I hope it sticks this time. With each of the last 3 updates, I made #1 but 1 or 2 weeks later sent to around #45.

Got my fingers crossed that I stay. :-)

Default This is freaky though...

It's changing results for me with every shift+refresh. One second it's showing me at #7 for health insurance for our correct url, then it shows an old url on a repeat search... both in the same spot.

Anyone having similar results?

Default Figured it out.

It's toggling between our directory listing and a crawled listing. Has anyone had this happen before?

All the time. It seems that anytime my site's position changes, the directory listing gets displayed. Then, after anywhere from 2 hours to 2 weeks later, the native page title / description is displayed. It stays that way until another significant move.

Similar, but not as traumatic, we were #45 then #3, now #10.

Is this Yahoo's version of the old Google Dance?

Default Yeah, we changed

We changed. Instead of #1, we're now #1. Oh, I guess that's not a change. However, some of our competitors moved from not listed to #'s 2 - 10, so that's not so good. At least they didn't gain that final spot.

Didn't work well for me. :(

I guess the reasons for our situation might deviate from this topic, so I'll start a new thread on it. Otherwise, I'd like to say best of luck to everyone in the changes Yahoo apparently has been doing lately!
