Business Opportunity Leads - Still Look to Yahoo a Least a Bit For SEO Needs!

If you have a business opportunity based on the internet and you are using SEO (search engine optimization) to drive traffic to your site, here is a bit of interesting news.

Oh, maybe four or five months ago, Google and Yahoo made a deal to combine advertising. At the time, Google had a reported 75% of all search engine advertising. Yahoo reportedly has around 11-15% of the search engine advertising. I am not sure of all the details other than if this deal had gone through, Google would command at least 90% of all search engine advertising rendering all others insignificant. As a matter of fact, the numbers have been reported to be higher. That means that at least “over” 90% of advertising is Google. MSN has about 1% and all of the others dole out to maybe 1%. Yahoo has the rest of all the advertising which does make it important to get your keywords at the top of that particular search engine.

It is even more important now to pursue Yahoo with SEO. The deal between the two companies was dropped amid threats of lawsuits recently. Google, rather than trying to fight, decided to nix the deal. This is important for search engine optimization as Yahoo still does enough with 11 to 15% of the market to try and get your keywords and keyword phrases to the top. Google is still a monster and if you are working to get business opportunity leads through SEO, focus should be on it.

Here is a tip though:

Yahoo, because the algorithms they use for SEO vary greatly from Google’s, it is much easier to get top search engine ranking through Google than it is Yahoo. In time though, if you have done what it takes to get top positions in Google, Yahoo will soon follow.

Why do I like talking about SEO so much? It is free to implement and I can not think of any other way to get business opportunity leads coming to you rather than you chasing them!
