Yahoo and Google

[peterko]

Hi everybody,

I applied so many different technics by doing my optimization, in order to be nice and friendly to all major search engines. My site http://www.supremedeal.com use to be more popular in Yahoo than Google. Then I desided to work on how to get more attention from Google, since Google currently is more popular than Yahoo. I recieved better results with Google, but I never realized that at the same time Yahoo will treat me worse than before and I lost my previouse popularity with Yahoo, which still visits my site by its Slurp.

I understand, those search engine use different algorythms, but in my case it looks they are opposite to each other - the better results with Yahoo, the worse in Google, the better in Google the worse in Yahoo.
That might be coincedent. For example, if I put some of my keywords "supreme clothing" in Google, then my site is on the first output page. If the same phrase in Yahoo, the result is no one knows where.

Why it happen that way?
Thank you for your opinions.

Have a great day,
Peter

maybe you should post this on the google forum...there are more people on that forum.

What techniques did you use to make Google notice you more?

[peterko]

No special technics have been used. Regular optimization technics with increase of relevant back-links. The only thing I paid more attention then usually is bringing my site content and meta tags, if you could say so, to the "human friendly appearance", well readable without keyword stuffing.

Google likes the sites, which are designed for the people, but not for search engines. So I was trying to follow that logic. Google noticed that, but Yahoo slightly reduced my ranking, hopefully it will come back with better search results. Just try "supreme clothing" at the Google's and Yahoo search boxes, and you will see the ranking difference.

Have a great day,
Peter

Hi, normally when you are having good results with Google, this means your website is in good shape and optimization status.

In many cases, Yahoo takes some times before it gives proper and stable ranks to a website, so if you believe you are doing good on Google, continue and other search engines will reach you sooner or later.

I wouldnt be surprised if they did that. It would be kind of like the battle between internet explorer and netscape. they just grow more and more appart in how they operate to establish branding.

well better stick with optimizing your site on SE of your choice, if you think Google gives better benefit or Yahoo does for your site then stick with that SE... if you have budget and needs traffic from both SE, here's my advise:

ex. optimize your site on Google then purchase adword on Yahoo

i agree with your example... optimize your site in google, put adsense inside your site and purchase adword in yahoo... hopfully it will be 50:50..

I noticed my SERP in Yahoo is lower after Googe update when my site becomes PR4. What is it?

[anhang]

Some body from this forum sending me an email and offer me to hosting my website in her hosting company to get better rank in google / yahoo. Is there any relation between hosting server and page rank ?.. i think it's not.. for reliable and speed reason is more reasonabe.

If only they offer a dedicated server for you. Google likes this.
