MSN and Yahoo simply do not provide as much traffic for user generated content in my experience. There can be exceptions, and I would certainly never ban them unless some other reason absolutely forces that action.

IT really depends on your keywords. MSN and Yahoo don't recieve the search volume that Google see's so unless your keyword is something that yahoo and MSN users would search for, the chances of getting traffic from them are small, and combine that with their results usually aren't nearly as good as Google's here lately it could lead to less traffic from them

Most searches simply are done at google over the others.


my figures:

Code:
1.  google  190,297      
2.  msn       4,579 
3.  yahoo     2,525
4.  live      2,404

dont be too late out of every 1000 unique visitors given by google, yahoo wont even send 1 unique visitor, but eat up lot of bandwith and take lot of server resources with 100s of bots online at any given time.

We already banned yahoo bot !!
