Hey pals,
Yahoo Keyword Search per Day Shows huge Visits but why it does not send any traffic.My Website ranks #1 on Yahoo for a keyword which has 200 visits per day according to yahoo search results.But i recieve not more than a click, where in my website ranks #3 on MSN for the same keyword and it clicks away more than 100 visits..

why this difference...

hi dear,
Strange, I know. I have a #2 rank in Yahoo for a pretty popular term but my site doesn't seem to get much traffic from it either. I know more people are using Google but there are still tons of folks on Yahoo.
bye

have a nice day -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

i've heard Yahoo is planning on releasing a new search engine soon. Hopefully, this will get rid of the problem. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

hi folks,
It depends on the keywords in question. MSN, Yahoo, and Google all have a different demographic audience. I usually receive FAR more traffic from Yahoo than MSN, but it depends more on the niche than the ranking it seems. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members.

That is strange.
Overture keyword tool is supposed to show the actual search counts. May be your competitors site which is ranked to next to you on yahoo is more popular among surfers. Or may be you should wait for a couple of months before you actually compare the amount of traffic from yahoo and MSN. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members.

I agree with banny, it's about demographic audience.I've noticed that, for some markets, Yahoo definitely brings in more traffic than MSN and for others, MSN outranks Yahoo as the traffic provider. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members.

May be you are using a different Yahoo Datacenter..also notice that Yahoo is using cookies and can always show you on #1 your favorite websites ...
