Ah well that's true. I have the same problem as well. There is this article that I'm reading which I think is pretty good.

Google and Yahoo has different algorithm so what you are doing right now may not on the side of yahoo.

I'm probably going to ruffle someones feathers...but ..If your not doing well on yahoo..my first thought is ..so what? Continue to leverage what you have done with google where you have had success. With thge lions share of traffic..google is where I always concentrate my efforts and you should be patted on the back. Yahoo?...well..I hardly focus there.
Just my opinion Gary

Yahoo has been 'sticky' for a little while now - perhaps they're rolling out an update soon. In the meantime, keep getting yourself backlinks, and eventually the yahoo bot will follow them and spider you.

In my experience Yahoo's results are far more inconsistent. After all, Google got to where it is now by being much better than Yahoo.
I personally wouldn't bother too much with Yahoo anyway as Google now dominates the market in most countries. Of course traffic is traffic...

Try to submit yahoo sitemap, rss feed to yahoo and join yahoo answers like forums as wel and do paid submission for yahoo directory....!!!!!!!!!
also submit your site in the directories which ranks in yahoo.!!!!!!!
It will take little time but you will get more traffic from yahoo!!!!!!!!!

i think you're still on the right track. keep link building and have more patience. it might not appear right now but once it appeared there's a possibility that you will land on the upper pages of the search results.

i have read on another forum that yahoo gives priority on quantity of links and not quality. so it means that the more backlinks (eventhough it doesn't have quality) you have, the more chances of ranking higher. but im not sure if that is really the secret of the algo of yahoo.

from my own experience that's broadly correct. The reason is assumed to be that yahoo haven't invested so much time and resource into making their backlink analysis algos as powerful as Google's

I am sure that Google weighs quality way more than quantity...
Plus with google possessing over 70% of the search engine marketshare so far i think that yahoo won't bring any major traffic to your site compared to them...
Stick with your google results keep improving them and building up a good "relationship" with google and the results at yahoo will eventually come...

It applies on all major search engines. For yahoo, on- page optimization have more weight-age than the off-page optimization.
