So, what did I do to get my site up in Yahoo SERPs and similarly how can you get cool traffic from Yahoo ?
Here I present Yahoo ! Ranking Factors – The Strategy [ I believe ] that can make your blog rank High in Yahoo !
Submit Sitemap to Yahoo
This is the most important factor . If you havent submitted , how can you expect traffic from yahoo ? Submit it right now
Valid and Correct HTML
Yahoo puts more emphasis on correct HTML . So make sure your site is W3C compliant. Check here .
Get Links From Yahoo Site Explorer
The more links you get , more will be the authority . Try to get more links from Yahoo sites like Yahoo directory, Yahoo buzz, Yahoo answers, Mybloglog, Delicious.com etc. Comment on fellow blogger’s blog , share ideas , exchange links . Check how many backlinks your blog possess here .
Fresh and Unique Content
This is not new . The more you update , that many times the Yahoo Search Bot crawls your content . And more unique the content is , the High will be the SERP . So always make sure you don’t copy anyone’s content and never use that same particular topic which is already blogged by someone , instead forget that topic and use your creativity to write other stuff way more cooler than what you were supposed to be writing before ๐
Make sure to use Rich Meta Keywords
Always research and insert proper keywords before posting your content and making public . Because however cool , your blog article might be , you wont get lion’s share until you use rich meta keywords . Make sure you use tags for categorization of your blog .

Submit Guest Articles

Links from article directories like articlemarketer.com, isnare.com, ezinearticles.com etc can be good . Also there are some good High page rank sites where you can submit your blog post excerpts and get link back to your blog post featuring full content .

Excellent tips and easy to undestand!
Our first strategy is to create w3c compliant codes for SEO. IMHO it is worth the effort. Then submit the bookmark the site on social networks and bookmarking sites. This will immediately index in google and yahoo. After that submit sitemap in google, yahoo, and bing. Finally , proceed with standard link building practices.
The problem is yahoo and bing only brings 20% or less traffic

google is king. but yahoo does have a small share alongside others such as bing…but google rules…..if you are up in google then the chances are you will be up in the others….the rule of the thumb is conquer google and you conquered the lot…..however……yahoo seems t show a high volume of links compared to yahoo….so if your in the link gaining game your bound to wonder wots suppp…..the answer is rather complex and you need to know the various algo’s of the engines zzzz zzzz …..yahoo have numerous other sites look at those and gain your links……it appears yahoo also aquires more second level back links if they are well written and tagged….
dont think links….think advertising…..

Many people says they got traffic from only Google search Engine and they got very less from yahoo and bing.This is true,because we all know Google provides much traffic in all SEs but we should optimize our website according to all SEs because if we ll get some traffic from other SEs then that will be extra bonus for us.
Thanks
