Liza,

What keywords are your ranking for? i ask this because if it is some obscure keyword, people probably dont search on it.

Check on OVT.

For the 3 major search engines, google will share about 70-80% of your se traffic, whiel the other 2 totally the rest. So it's not a strange thing that yahoo doesn't bring you too much traffic, even if you rank #1.

I agree yahoo has dropped in popularity just lately, i have found msn to be more prfoitable for me.

It may be the keywords you are using. Are you targeting geographicly?

but, not getting much traffic.If you are ranking for a popular term; and not getting any rankings, then rephrase your title and meta description tags with some attractive statements; it will help... :)

Hi -

That's good advice iolv. Once I establish good rankings, I always then try to put some effort into how the snippet and "title" text reads in the search results...

Actually, I probably don't focus on that as often as I should...hmmm.
