Default Yahoo SERPs sneak preview - 02-12-2004 , 05:09 AM






Just been reading a post on the SEO Roundtable by Brette Tabke of WMW

we know Inktomi will be the new source for Yahoo SERPs, but the SERPs
currently being displayed are Googles

by adding this code after the keyphrase
&tmpl=E088
you get on the Yahoo-Inktomi SERPs

e.g.
so a search in Yahoo currently for "big feet" returns the URL
http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=big...=20&fl=0&x=wrt

by adding this code after the keyphrase &tmpl=E088
http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=big+feet&tmpl=E088

you are now looking at the future results of Yahoo,

Yahoo is estimated to supply 24% of Global searches, their departure from
Google will cut Googles hold from 74% to 50%. Be there or be square.

If your site is a commercial one, then you don't. You will have to pay.

With all the fuss about google lately, people seem to be forgetting how big
Yahoo is. Certainly for those of us in the UK, a one off fee of £200.00 is
well worth it.

I move from 11 to 2 and 9 to 2 on both of my key phrase searches - I like
it.

The one time $200 fee free ride is over at Yahoo. Figure prices will be
starting at $1,000 per url per month soon. You can put up with google
spam problems and trying to figure out their algo for free or pay
through the nose at Yahoo. Just because you pay at yahoo doesn't mean
internet users will switch to yahoo from aol search google because they
won't and you'll be wasting your money.

nothing is for certain in this game as anyone that has spent any time doing
SEO knows, but working on the basis that Yahoo didn't buy Inktomi just for
fun and now that they are "playing" with the SERPs online my guess is the
game is changing and Google will not have it all their own way.

Yippee,
I move from filtered out (not in top 1000)
to #11

Not super optimised but links+content DO rank it at 11

....which IMHO is evidence that google is filtering some sites out of
possible SERPS for some terms

So obvious question - when will they do the changeover.
I for one will switch to yahoo as my 1st choice SE.

No it doesn't. It shows (assuming the poster is correct) that Yahoo
are testing a new database and it might not be Google's.

If this turns out to be true, it tells us nothing about Googles
database etc....

You've basically said I can find my site at MSN and Alltheweb in the
top 10, but not in Google therefore Google is filtering!! The two are
not related..

David replace SP@AM with @ to email me direct.
