Increase In Yahoo Traffic

[lawman]

One site showed a 22% increase in Yahoo referrals from the prior week. The other showed an 83% increase. I think one of my sites needs a little tweaking. :)

lawman, what prog do you use to get those figures? i haven't been able to find anything that showed that level of detai for se's.

I use the one provided by the host - in this case it is LiveStats.xsp v.7 by DeepMetrix Corp.

Actually, it didn't give that level of detail. I simply subtracted the figures of the week before last from last week's figures and did my own cipherin' using a cheap calculator. :)

[percentages]

For my sites I'm seeing a 30% to 50% increase in Yahoo referrals and it is converting much better than Google traffic :)

Conversion rate is the only test, and only thing I care about as far as any SE producing relevant results is concerned.

Yahoo now has the highest conversion rate, with MSN a tad behind and Google coming in behind AOL, AJ, AV and ATW percentage wise (Google volume is high, it just doesn't convert well in % terms).

ConRate has picked up a tad since Brandy......G seems to be realizing it made a mistake and Y has proven it can take back the lions share!
