Spam and sub-sub-sub-sub-sub domains and doorway pages full of spam keywords.

Yahoo cant get enough of them, thats why the results are so cr@p.

Ive given Yahoo examples of blatent spam techniques used by some webmasters and provided details of where they are in the index yet they do nothing about it.

Obviously Google doesnt have this problem and neither does the new MSN but Yahoo does.It loves SPAM.

So forget about spending time building content, quality pages, presenting your pages in a quality order and providing well researched quality that users of your site will enjoy and spend your time building yourself a doorway page with a redirect on it full of spam keywords and bingo it will rank 1 in no time. (it will get you banned in both Google and MSN but you will get all the trafic you need from Yahoo)

Also, If you want to get your site listed about 40 times out of the first 100 results in your sector in Yahoo then you need to do the spam technique above with the sub-sub-sub-sub-sub domain technique. I can give you superb examples of sites that use this and control over 30% of the SERPS doing it. Again Yahoo are not interested.

If the page that the bot sees is not the same as the page the end user sees it should not feature in the SERPS if you ask me.

I find this a dam shame to be honest. Quality sites dont get a look in whilst dross features well. Until Yahoo decide to address this im sorry but it looks like quality has little chance in Yahoo!
