Anyone good at ranking on Yahoo?

[loopyal]

I don't get Yahoo or Bing these days!

I wrote a story "Did David Wineland and Serge Haroche Steal Idea For The Nobel Physics Prize?"

It is a unique story, sourced from a prince.

It is referenced on many other sites.

It has had about 115,000 pageviews so far. most of those people read 2 or 3 pages.

Do Yahoo or Bing list my story?

No.

They list all the referencing sites, they even list unrelated stories on my site that show that headline in the "top ten stories of the day" widget, but not the story itself.

It has about 1250 shares.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi Alan,

It's not uncommon for Bing/Yahoo to vary in search results from other search engines, but the scope of the difference you describe does seem a bit odd.

Although I can't tell you exactly why it isn't ranking there are a few things we can look at:

1. The site is in Bing's cache. That's reassuring. And the last crawl date was pretty recent.

2. To analyze problems, I'd check the site through Bing Webmaster Tools. If you don't have a Webmaster account, I'd take a few minutes to set one up and verify your website. Once you do this the webmaster suite has several diagnostic tools you can take advantage of.

• SEO Analyzer
• Link Explorer - Enter your URL and see if Bing has indexed links to this particular page
• Fetch as Bingbot - See if the Bing crawler discovers any issues when crawling the page

It's pretty common for Bing/Yahoo to index far fewer pages than Google, and indeed you can see the huge different numbers reported for your site

• 20400 for Bing
• 1,300,000 for Google

Which seems like a really big difference. Bing does a pretty good job of removing low quality pages from its index, but I can't be certain that's what happening here. It might be worth a look to see what pages are being indexed, what ones aren't being indexed, and finding out what the difference is.

Regardless, hope this helps, if only a little. Best of luck with your SEO!

Thank you Cyrus.

I do have Bimg WMT, but I haven't checked out all of thise things.

Thank you, I will.

Google's URL count is a little high now, since I moved a million pages onto subdomains two months ago. They are very slow in releasing the pages I don't want them to have.

As you say, Bing is very low, and I don't understand why that is, because it should be around 96,350
