yahoo vs G

in my opinion yahoo is a better search engine, it uses less politics to provide actual search results.

unless you work for google you can only go off the idea that links, good webpages, and optimization are the ways that googles algorithm works. Same with yahoo. The way there algorithm works changes every six months anyways so just when you think you got it figured out they will change it on you.

Does anyone really ever know what goes on with the Google Algo....

No one is going to really know what the differences are between the 2 companies and their proprietory algorithms. The only thing that you will discover is the basic differences in what they produce for search results...but not how they got to that point. I wish I did know...then I would sell that knowledge to the highest bidder

If only we did know, I think I would be on a sunny beach right now just watching the surf enjoying the fact that I didn't have to work all the hours!!!

It seems to me that Yahoo puts more emphasis on your domain name than Google does, but other than that they are very similar. One possible difference I have found with some non-real estate websites is that Yahoo seems to put more of an emphasis on informational sites on the first few pages of results, while Google has no problem with a bunch of commercial sites being in the top 30. Has anyone else noticed that?
