Why would my site have so little on yahoo ive check loads of sites and they all have tons but me i have like 219 but 35000+ in google

am i missing a option?

Yahoo's seach bot is very slow and very inefficient when compared to others like Bing and Google...

They also work in VERY different ways, the only think you can really do to speed things up and help them along would be to make sure you have submitted your sitemap to Yahoo and also make sure that you are not blocking the yahoo bot (some hosts do this because it causes extra load).

You don't need 2 user-agent directives of the same thing.... combine them.


don't worry about yahoo. it's earch engine is basically obsolete at this point and is running off bing.

Allright thanks
