How Yahoos Recent Facelift Can Mean More Traffic To Your Site

It even surprised me.

Yes, even though I have been pointing out possibility since July, was forced by demand release my study findings before my book was even half finished, I was shocked when I heard news well.

You see, I was sure we were at least a year off from this glorious day.

The News

Yahoo has had a little facelift, which you've probably read about by now. The real news more important your site - "My Yahoo!" page looks different too.

On September 28, 2004, surfers who logged their personalized Yahoo area saw an announcement explaining RSS Atom files show updated information a website content feeds, effectively pushing news feeds into mainstream.

The new look this section Yahoo was presented a full page ad every single account holder upon first log day, even now, there remains a notice posted.

When I logged into my page "My Yahoo!" section, I saw a big difference number feeds left choose from, well way they were presented.

Currently, RSS module boasts "150,000 sources". If your site isn't one them, its crucial you act now. If you have one you're not getting results you'd like from your set-up, there are small changes you can implement will make a huge difference your listing.

Best results aren't easy submitting your feed now, but you're still within window opportunity - if you do properly.

What News Could Mean For Your Site If You Act Now

One my clients recently called this "the back door into Yahoo". Whether statement accurate far getting included, or receiving an increase rankings within Yahoo's search engine via your feed, depends your site, whether you create your feed correctly.

If you could use a daily stream traffic from even a small portion Yahoo's estimated 20 million users, this could be your final wake-up call. You'll want learn how create a feed gets well listed immediately.

Currently, RSS module boasts "150,000 sources". Yahoo will still need hundreds, perhaps thousands more, even if only intends list "creme de la creme" submissions gets. Being group easy submitting your feed.

"My Yahoo!" RSS Headline module Coming Out Beta?

If I had guess, I'd say all signs point yes. When happens, Yahoo's RSS/Atom directory will likely contain only those who added their feeds early. New feeds seeking be included will probably face stricter standards.

If you don't have one yet don't worry, because it's never been easier make one. If you can cut paste, there are tools all over Net will show you how- some will even generate file you.

However, there are still certain guidelines you need follow with your feed get a good result out Yahoo - it's not simple adding your feed now there are more competing listings.

Yahoo still accepting new sources RSS feeds. Readers my last book state they are getting excellent results following my instructions, though initial inclusion no longer occurs at same rate. Plenty markets have few feeds available, or none at all. Your site could fill void.

That means you still have a chance at a first page ranking. The traffic I get a daily basis from My Yahoo readers alone sounds like I just like brag.

And I do, but that's hardly point.

The point is, there's no place you can even go buy caliber exposure quality audience that reads feeds. The typical audience that accesses information by feed are also blog readers. A study this summer estimated that 69.3% blog readers are aged 29-50, that 40% this audience are people who have household incomes greater than $90,000.

The type surfer that would subscribe your feed has pre-qualified themselves a lead, with a certain level understanding interest your topic, often a professional level. And if you don't spend every post hitting them over head with your sales pitch, they can be both loyal interactive.

(If you do, they'll unsubscribe from your feed faster than you can spell s-p-a-m.)

And if you're business providing information you can use, a way that shows how you can solve their problem, it's like preaching converted. If your product solves their problem, you show that you deserve trust this subscriber, you'll also find route a sale an increasingly downward slope.

The bottom line - this power surfer's favorite toy. And if your content appeals them, you need learn how play.
