most people arent very observent. And think they can take the easy way in and out of things like a candy man... Well, quite frankly I have something to get through your heads...

You think that you are listed on Yahoo! when your traffic orginates from google.yahoo.com.... And then they go say "look! I am on yahoo!"

Wrong Wrong Wrong!

Yahoo uses google's syndication when your search..

A real Yahoo listing (which brings in much more traffic) would be more like this:

http://dir.yahoo.com/Arts/Design_Arts/Graphic_Design/Web_Page_Design_and_Layout/Templates/


Now, if I have another person messaging me saying "hey look, I am on YAHOO!!!!"

I will Sub7 you so fast you wont know what hit you.

Now, is this a valid point about search engines or a sly dig at wizardsdesignsz?

Actually, its both.

Well it shouldn't be both should it?

I suppose it is a valid post though - you're outlining the difference between being listed on Google and Yahoo!

So I suppose that if I edit the 'examples' that are in your original post it'll be fine.
