Can anyone tell me why I would be banned from yahoo only after paying to be added to the Yahoo directory?
Ok my website never ranked on the first page of Yahoo but did rank. I decided to pay the 9 to be added to the directory in hopes that I would rank a little higher. When I did that you can no longer find my site at all through natural keyword searches. The page is optimized no black hat it is IMHO a good site with a lot of rich content. I have given template sites with no optimization to two of my coleagues and they both show up for my keywords.
I decided to add PPC because I figured Yahoo must have sandboxed me. 0 more out of pocket to Yahoo and still can not be found in natural search but always on first page in the right column (pay per click column).
I have asked the yahoo’s and received no reply. Any suggestions would be much welcomed.
