Keyword Mistakes: Google v. Yahoo

By Nick at 18 April, 2007, 3:18 pm

On-page keyword mistakes: the good, the bad and the ugly is a good post on keyword density. On the sites that I keep my keyword density on a particular page between 6-8. Yahoo tends to place heavier emphasis on keyword density, so optimizing for Yahoo by adding keywords could cause you to lose ranking in Google.

For example, if you type in “product liability attorney” in google, my site will be number 1. Type that same phrase in Yahoo and it is nowhere to be found. Well, it is about the 40th page. We are beginning to wonder if Yahoo favors those that pay to get in rather than those that submit their site for free. I have brought together a team here to study Yahoo and determine what does it take to rank well.
