Yahoo has been very focused on uncovering link farms, affiliate links, and sites that utilize massive cross linking.
If anyone has lost Yahoo rankings recently, go to Y! and type site:www.yourdomain.com. If only the index page is showing, your site has been penalized.
How do you fix the problem? Go to the
Yahoo site reinclusion form and submit it to Y!.
If your site fails the reinclusion text, you will get back a
seemingly vague email response regarding potential problems with your site.
DO NOT dismiss this response! Unlike Google responses, this email response will help you narrow down your problem.
Spend some time analyzing the comments they sent you. Assume that
each item they give you is a potential problem and analyze your site. If you really take the time to analyze the potential problems, it's usually easy to see where your site went wrong with Yahoo.
