MSN and Yahoo stupid?

Hey there,

My site is getting really good Google love (70% of my traffic now) for a good year or so now, but for some reason MSN and Yahoo just cannot pickup the love.

I have submitted to MSN and Yahoo sitemaps, but still no joy..

Anyone have any ideas what I am doing wrong? Or some simple tips for what I need to make it right?

    To date, I have not generated a single visitor to any of my sites through MSN and I have only gotten like 30 visits from yahoo to my blog. I would love to be ranked in them but I really don't care because google gets over 90% of traffic and that's good enough for me .

    Here's the proof: Why should you try exteremly hard to get ranked in google and not think about the alternatives too much. Mohammad Afaq's Blog

      My site is receiving 45% traffic from google and 55% from yahoo for 1 keyword which appears on page 1 for both search engines.

      To be more specific, My site is ranked 5 in google and ranked 2 in yahoo.

    I wouldn't spend time worrying about it, as you said the vast majority of your traffic comes from google so concentrate your efforts on building that up.

    Focus on getting the No.1 position in Google instead of focusing on Yahoo! and Bing. The top position in Google will probably get you more targeted traffic.

      I really have no idea why Bing and Yahoo seem to be light years behind Google when it comes to crawling sites. It's a real shame as well since Google could use some real competition.

    More often than not, people look at what isn't working and try to improve that. Why?

    Look at what's working for you and imporve on that! Make sense?
