Weather Report: Yahoo! Search update

We've rolled out some changes to our index with fresh web data and updates to our crawling, indexing and ranking algorithms over the last few days. We expect the update will be completed very soon. Throughout this process you may see some changes in ranking as well as some shuffling of the pages in the index.
This is the first update after the launch of Dynamic URL Rewriting in Site Explorer. We've had millions of URLs rewritten based on your submissions and your sites should have seen smarter crawling from Yahoo! Slurp as a result. You will see further benefits in how your site is represented in the index from this update. Your input improves relevance and coverage for users in search results, particularly in relation to your site.
Thank you for collaborating with us to improve our understanding of your site. If you haven't yet, login and try out the feature to authenticate your sites.
Keep the feedback coming...

I check my site out and found my site got ranking down.
I didn't got much traffic from yahoo but this time more less for now.

How about your site situation?

You have better stats then me. I don't know why your gone down, do you know what words where getting your traffic before and if your position on yahoo has gone down for those words?

Adulu · 10-21-2007, 06:28 AM

It's back.
I didn't change any words before back as well as after update.

Thanks Adulu for posting this, this makes a lot of sense of what's been happening. I too hav lost traffic, and the inbound links appearing at Yahoo has gone down to about 10% of what it was at the beginning of September. Good news is that traffic from Yahoo has been on the climb again and I'm now ack to about 80% of inbound links. It looks as thinngs may be settling down again and getting back to normal.
