Hi,

I get most of my traffic through Google organic searches but next to nothing now from Yahoo.

I used to advertise with Yahoo Marketing about a year ago and at that time Yahoo ranked my site fairly highly organically. My Yahoo account has since been on pause as I got fed up with the the way Yahoo marketing was being run.

During the last year I have gone into oblivion as far as Yahoo organic ranking is concerned and I put it down to the fact that I am no longer giving them anymore money. As a consequence of being on pause for a long time I believe that they ditched my site in their organic listings in the hope that I would re-advertise with them.

I could be wrong but wondered if anyone else has experienced a similar problem?

Incidently I never chose the Yahoo Marketing option of advertising on other peoples websites.

Another thing I have noticed with Yahoo is that sometimes they list you organically as domain.com with the "www" suffix and other times without it.

Wow. I don't that's a reasonable act what Yahoo did to your site. Just because you paused for advertising means you won't have a chance of getting a good ranking. Sad

I haven't experienced this thing yet. I hope I won't.

^ Yah. Totally different from my case. I gain more traffic from Yahoo. I think there's something wrong with your page.

Good points! Another problem with Yahoo advertising is that the conversions are kinda low. It's less successful than Adwords. Not really worth it.
