"New Yahoo! Formula Requires Different Optimizing Strategies"

Article on Clickz

Any thoughts on accuracy? Is this "new" due to the recent change at YAHOO!?

[Travoli]

The article was nice but he talks about the importance of KW placement and making perfect copy while running by the "editors can do whatever they want to your description" issue really too slickly. To me it implied that it rarely happens and is nothing to worry about. I think there are a few WMW members that will disagree.

Any other comments?

hmmmmm....Looks very, very, very similar to the Planet Ocean article... (coincidence?)

the info looks good for the most part.... although he did leave a few things out...

First place I know that Yahoo's new criteria was discussed was here:
[webmasterworld.com...]

[netcommr]

if ($stable) {

my $iamlost =~ tr/rand(yahoo.com)/$somethingnew/;

($clicks + $title + $url + $desc + $cat) != $somethingnew;

}

OK, I'm regular expression impaired... Can I get a translation?

I agree with Brett.
I didn't even look at the article because there is no other place on the Net where you will get more up to date info on any SEO topic before WMW. At least not for free. I remember when I saw the new Yahoo web sites look, I thought I was the first one to see it. And guess what, at WMW there was already heated discussion going on about it.
