Yahoo Testing Quality Algo In UK

**PPCblogger** · 05-24-2007, 07:56 AM

Did anyone else get the email from Yahoo?

Apparently they are now testing the quality based ranking algo for certain keyword markets in the UK.

Anyone seen much in the way of changes?

Full email can be viewed here.

Yeah was invited to go along aswell, but couldn't.

Guessed it was going to be similar to the earlier one they had a couple of months ago?

But a 'live demo'... which we have kind of seen with non UK accounts.

Did they give much else away?!

i don't like assist.its just like google suggest.
Assist will make harder for small site bowners to get traffic because whenever a user will type keyword he will see the keywords which other type and ranking high for those keywords are a bit tough.

It's still a test, right? It's not out internationally yet? Or is it only for specific countries? And if it's still a test and is approved, when will it be out to the online community?
