Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Lara,

Like with so many things in this business, there is not a simple yes or no with regard to Yahoo Stores. There's some options. Let's discuss this via our support desk. Please post a support ticket and we'll get back to you on this.

Hello,We're in the business of making print catalogs and brochures from the content of e-commerce systems and other data sources. I am not aware of a free solution to do this. We are inexpensive, but not free!We do offer a free service to make a PDF flyer, with QR code, for every product on your eStore. I bet that is what you remember seeing. Also, we offer a free 30 day trial to make as many print catalogs as you want. If you have any questions or issues please contact our support desk. We are glad to assist you in any way.

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for the response. I see your logic, and it makes perfect sense.

But it still bothers me, because surely the smart folks at Google know that this is really junk. Given that Google's goal is to deliver quality results to search queries, how can it be that they would use this site to determine authority? Wouldn't you think that they would blacklist those sites that clearly are there solely for purposes of spam links?

My point is that yes, I get the algorithmic reason, but common sense says that links from this site are worthless with respect to "authority".
