Yahoo started to crawl my site like crazy 6 months after it went live. That was a year and a half ago. Now my site ranks 1 literally for any and every word in my industry. What did I do?

- Updated content several times a month over a year straight
- Use h1 <b> <i> <u> meta tags, alt tags, 4% keyword consistency
- Have my keywords listed at the end of the page
- Have between 200-500 words of content on each page
- No redirects
- No popups
- Quick load time

Besides ranking well in yahoo, I am top 1-6 for my same competitive keywords on google. I have been working my a$$ off at improving my rankings on google and didn't have to do any work really for the yahoo. All the above is SIMPLE!

But a majority of my traffic comes from google....

Search engines have different ranking algorithms. To rank well in Yahoo, you must focus more on doing an on-page optimization on your site because Yahoo gives more weigh on these on-page factors. Better work well in selecting keywords in your title, description, content and anchor text.
