Yahoo! Update rumors- rankings algorithm changes

There has been speculation across various search marketing blogs that Yahoo! has recently updated their ranking algorithm.

Yahoo! search engine rankingsAccording to reports on Webmaster World and Digital Point forums, many different webmasters have noticed a change in their Yahoo! rankings.

The update appears to have started around the 29th March and resulted in a general shuffle of the SERPs with no major changes being reported. Here are some reports on the change:

"Minor moves, both up and down, for most of my keywords;

yes… this happened to me as well. one of my main keywords was number 10 in yahoo (was number 2-3 about 1.5 month ago)and yesterday and today I rank number 1 for my keywords;

I’ve also seen some drops in Yahoo SERPs for some of my main keywords from about 3rd position to 7th and now 6th. Hoping I get back to the top shortly."

Yahoo! last updated their algorithm on the 27th Feb, so the timing of this update sounds about right based on Yahoo’s monthly update cycle.

While there has been no official word from Yahoo just yet, they still hold around 21% of the search market, so it would be a wise idea to check your ranking just to be safe.

If you’ve noticed a change in your Yahoo! traffic or rankings, let us know in the comments below!
