Pro Blog it | ProBlogging Venture, Tips and Ideas, Reviews and Opinions

I asked myself this question so many times, “Can Bing and Yahoo! really compete with Google?” So I documented something last night.

Ok, ok, this morning, at past 2 o’clock in the morning. 🙂

I have to admit, I slept late las night, I mean morning already. I wrote a blog entry for my personal blog and posted it at 11:53pm, just before midnight. Then I finished reading and scanning other blogs that I am subscribed to. I have a habit to read everything before I sleep. It took me a while though to finish reading and scanning them.

Then before I went to bed, I thought of checking the top 3 search engines if the blog entry, Mount Gurten, Wabern, Bern, Switzerland Day Trip, that I posted at my personal blog got indexed. I typed the keywords “mount gurten” in Google, Bing and Yahoo!, and what did I find?

I have written about the topic on how to get indexed by Google and Bing search engines, how to get indexed by Google, and how to get indexed by Bing, but have not written yet about on how to get indexed by Yahoo!.

In my experience, to get indexed by Yahoo! is not really that difficult. The difficult part is, how are you going to get the top spot on the search engine results page (SERP) of Yahoo! Search.

If you would like your blog or site to get indexed by Yahoo!, all you have to do is read the details at Yahoo! Search Submission page. You can then submit your site for free at the Site Explorer – Submit page or Site Explorer – Yahoo! Site Explorer page for inclusion in Yahoo! Search.
