Switch to Yahoo Update, BOTW and the Five Dollar Wiki

Posted in Search Engines | By LGR | On November 27th, 2007

I am happy to say that the last few days have gone well to the the Google off my back as far as search is concerned. I switch the default search engine in Firefox to Yahoo on the 22nd and I have been pleased with how well Yahoo search is performing. I was working on my latest WordPress theme and found Yahoo search to return very good results from WordPress regarding template tags. Saved me a great deal of time.

About my post titled “Directories are Dead” I have done some more looking at the Best of the Web directory. I took some time to go through the categories and visit some of the sites listed. They don’t approach Yahoo type numbers as far as traffic goes, but they are not to bad. I had some extra cash in my PayPal account so I even listed my Free Favicons website in the directory. I have not gotten great amounts of traffic from it, but some is better than nothing I suppose. It will be interesting to see how it does as time goes on.

I got my pages from the Five Dollar Wiki. I have not done much with them yet. I started adding some content to my Making Money Online. It is not anywhere near complete but a good start.blank1.gif
