Google vs Yahoo SEO

I have optimized nearly all aspects of one of my sites for seo, including sitemaps, relevent tags, and the whole 9 yards. I was checking my stats and saw that google bot hit 126k pages while yahoo bot hit only 190 pages. What's the deal? I have signed up for the site explorer thing and everything, is there something that I could be missing?

Thanks in advance

 

"Patience" maybe!

How long ago did you check the stats after all the work you did?

 

Thank you, Have a nice time

 

Can we optimize our websites in all search engines automatically after optimize google and yahoo??

 

Optimise for Google and the rest will follow...seriously

 

Google is going to give you over 50% of your traffic after all

 

The Fish and chips you recomended were awesome
But Google has always been the best and most direct for me!

 

I completely agree. I have found this is the case many times.

 

That's not true mah friend. Just do keyword search for highly competitive keywords, you will see big difference, lets take "SEO Services" for the same...

 

I think Yahoo more depends on keyword density than google.

 

Yahoo reflects the keywords on my pages, while Google ranks the same sight for link keywords.

 

every thing is fine wait for few more dyas,

 

Having done this for awhile, your SEO traffic from Yahoo and MSN/Live is extreamly small. Other than ego, there is no point.

Real traffic from Google is ~72%, YouTube 14%, Ask 6%, Yahoo 3% and MSN/Live 2%

Real business comes from Google. Yahoo nolonger send traffic that converts.

Therefore we only SEO for Google and don't waste our time on the others. But, YouTube is really starting to help us. Ask is also.

 

you need to be patience and continue with your blog posting..i am very your index page will increase through the time..

 

Well i don't give much attention to yahoo ... For my site google is main source of traffic so every time i just care about Google . because people like to google it not yahoo it

 

I've noticed similar experiences from my websites, usually Google and Youtube make the bulk of my traffic. I stopped worrying about Yahoo and MSN search engine rankings for the last few months. Yahoo PPC still brings traffic that converts though.

 

I also agree with you. I got the 50% traffics from google and 20% from yahoo after complete seo for a site.

 

Google's engine is just challegening sometimes, yahoo is so unpredictable. So pick one and focus on it

 

It seems like Yahoo site explorer is not entirely accurate sometimes. Google sees 263 external links and yahoo only sees 126. It used to be the other way around but in the last few weeks it seems like yahoo isn't picking up some of my external links.

Any idea why that is? Should I even worry about Yahoo Site Explorer? I did submit my site of course.

Thank you. Humbly,

May be yahoo is yet to pick up those links. Moreover it is good that google is showing more links. After all it is google which is going to send you a rush of traffic.
