    At least they've throughly indexed things:

    site - Yahoo! Search Results

    Look on page 2. You will see the old format of my URL's before I got vbSEO.

    I have had anywhere from 50 to 75 YAHOO bots on my site around the clock for the past week.... But, I also have over 25,000 pages in yahoo now and the search hits are already showing that it is working.

    So, I would say this is a good thing!

    Just the letter case of the 'Y'

    I have a lot of pages in yahoo, but get next to no traffic from them. It has always been this way for my sites... not sure why.

    looks like vbseo will need to update how it defines yahoo slurp.
