New content boost on Yahoo!?

[r2d2]

Anyone know yet whether Yahoo has a new content boost like Google? I have some nice positions in Yahoo, and wonder if im gonna drop?

Have been receiving people from Yahoo for last coupla days.

I've started getting visits from yahoo bots recently. haven't seen any improvements in their rankings tho.

Could you elaborate on the "new content boost like Google" thing?

[r2d2]

On Google, new content gets a ranking boost for a while (~a few days/weeks). Just wondering if Yahoo does the same thing?

I don't know if boost is the right word for it.... more like "benefit of a guess."

So far this month I have had more referrals from Yahoo than from Google! I have had good Y! ranking all month although I presume a lot less pages in the index than google (Google about 60).

Im getting about 10 times as much from Yahoo compared to Google, and I think I only have the homepage indexed in Yahoo!

Thats from just doing 'site:www.housebuyingguide.co.uk' in Yahoo - it only shows my homepage.

I get most of my search engine traffic from msn, hardly any from yahoo.

I get a good slice from msn too, roughly 1/3 of Yahoo, about 3x Google. Which engine does msn use?

The only reason I'm getting good traffic though is because of zeal. There's 3 emotion sites in a category, so a lot of the time those three are at the top.
