They are going to have to find for creative ways to maintain their finantial piece. I have one site got a ton of traffic from Yahoo, can very much be a user base thing with these engines. I believe Yahoo is going to give it a shot and make the necessary improvements.<BR/>--MelanieMelanie Proughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03256593145297343920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3497004410317339800.post-31429152741238918192007-08-20T03:52:00.000-04:002007-08-20T03:52:00.000-04:00Lately Slurp is my heaviest crawler; for the long...Lately Slurp is my heaviest crawler; for the longest time it had been MSNBot.<BR/><BR/>I gave up on Yahoo years ago, and haven't used them since. The ads could give you a seizure. More than anything else, that drove me away. I know I can just come back with an ad blocker, but that just turned me off, especially once Google showed up with a much less offensive layout, even if it's <B>far</B> less functional.<BR/><BR/>The one thing I really liked about Yahoo is that their SERPs have a link to open each result in a new page or tab. When I'm not sure if a particular result is what I want, I tend to do this with the context menu. That's a pretty small plus on their side, and with such a long way to catch up, it would be silly to think a little thing like that would be enough. But, a lot of nice little touches put together, along with Yahoo's longevity, can probably keep them afloat.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
