I have never been a fan of yahoo because I never got much traffic from them.  Here recently I have been purchasing a lot of keyword heavy domain names and my yahoo traffic has increased enough that now I value the searchers Yahoo sends my way.  So this is what I've notice.  Yahoo puts a lot more weight on domain names then google does.  For example I have a serpentine belt diagram site, which has ranked #1 for its kewords within two weeks of putting it up.  Google has not been as friendly.

Ask brings you as much as 5%  Shocked

For most my sites Yahoo and Live / MSN are pretty even with perhaps 10 - 15% of traffic with others such as ask and other smaller se's accounting for less than 1%. Google is far and away the leader.

Ye, I find that I get more traffic from AOL than Yahoo.
But seriously to me Yahoo is like Google on Prozac everything happens very slowly.
