RobinK,

This is not really an observation about International vs. Regional Yahoos!

andrewshim,

Using keyword tracking software, I often see visitors arriving from page 1 of Yahoo! SERPS, however when using reverse look up, the page is not there. If I do the same search on AV or ATW, the page is always on page 1.

It looks like Yahoo! takes the AV/ATW SERPS and applies additional filters such as a subdomain penalty (if you use subdomains) or a boost if in the Y! Directory. Occasionally the AV/ATW SERPS appear on Y!
