Hey everybody! Glad to have found a site like this with so many active members! Maybe someone can help me out with search engines?

I've been plugging away at my site for a few months now, and I've tried not to break any of google's seo rules about content (many of which I've found by browsing around here btw) and I'm listed in a few of other people's sites/blogs, and also a few seo-friendly internet directories.
Also, my site uses blogger.com's blogging software, but I host it on my own domain. Lastly, in each page's header I have the metatag for robots to index, follow.

Now, Google indexes me pretty good - i'd say they're maybe a week behind my daily updates.

But I'm not indexed very well by yahoo - they're like a month behind.

Why does yahoo hate me so? Confused

Or is it b/c I need to be in existence for more than two months for them to crawl regularly?

Thanks all!

Welcome to the forums!

Yahoo doesn't hate you, at least not yet Wink. I think the reason why your site is not getting reindexed regularly is because it is rather new (only a fews months.) Wait a while longer and see what happens. I'm sure the Webmistress could shed some more light on the topic.

I've nothing more really to add, it just takes time so if you continue to build links and wait you'll get there Smiling

Register for a my.yahoo.com account. Then add your site's RSS feed to your my yahoo page. Boom.. instant indexing.
