Sometimes I am Redirected to a Competitor

Scott Rickey · 02-22-2008, 02:54 AM

I have a question:
On two seperate occassions when I click on my site in an organic search a competitors site comes up. This has happened twice for the same competitor which is a bit disturbing. When I click on it a second time my site comes up. Why is this and what can I do about It?

If what you mentioned is right, this is a bug on the search engine site. You should let them know.

Any Idea how to contact Yahoo?

Thanks,
Acumed

I read article about google hacking some where. Kindly check your header redirect, it may be serious problem or may the search engine problem. Inform them about this type of problem.

Probably your site is hacked and your competitor added some code to your pages. I dont think yahoo will have any bugs in their system, thats simply too much!
