Default How the heck do you get traffic from Yahoo?

I'm been looking over my statistics for a long time and I've never received one visitor from Yahoo. I gets hundreds of visitors to my directory from Google but Yahoo seems to be at a dead end. Are there any secrets to optimizing your website for Yahoo?

Hi ... I get a few, via Yahoo, but not a lot. I tried a few tricks, which supposedly entinced Yahoo to send visitors, to my site, but nothing worked, well. Am anxious to read the responses to your great questions. Thanks.

There are no secrets. Google is more dynamic, and better, and more people use it. Yahoo somehow seems a little biased towards older domains.

I receive most of my traffic via Google, and only a minuscule amount via Yahoo or MSN. IMO, concentrate on adding content, and make sure Googlebot LOVES your site. Thats what I do, and I am satisfied.
