Yahoo Search Marketing Problem
May 17th, 2007 at 09:10 pm by ashok in YahooI am advertising in yahoo search marketing since last few months for my web hosting site http://www.ewebguru.com/
Few days ago, I saw a problem I tried to search for some keywords in which i am bidding but did not found my site in sponsor categories, I tried after the interval of few hours, but still same result, I login to my searchmarketing account and send ane email to their support team, after 1 days I receive a telphone call from a man of yahoo support team. [They always call in response to support ticket, this is the only thing which I like in yahoo search marketing]. I told him about the problem, he said that your site is being displayed, I checked it was not. After few minutes conversation we understand the problem was that I was looking at yahoo.com domain, whereas my ads were being displayed in yahoo.co.in domain. I told him that I want my site to be displayed in yahoo.com also. He said that it will be updated and your results will come, but still I am facing same problem. My ads are only displaying at yahoo.co.in and not yahoo.com. Also as when we open google.com it is redirected to google.co.in, yahoo is not redirected. So I think that I am loosing a considerable amount of adverising opportuniy and traffic.
Also yahoo search marketing interface is way behind to google adwords. I am also using google adwords and their are lots of features, which we just can’t imaging in yahoo. When yahoo will catch google?

Yahoo India searching new advertiser
November 4th, 2006 at 04:44 pm by ashok in YahooIt appears Yahoo India, is doing extensive marketing to search new advertiser, for their recently started searchmarketing services in India.
Today I received a telephone call from Yahoo India. Person who talked to me was pursuing me to use their search marketing service. When I received the call, I was actually not on my PC and was out in the market. He give me the URL searchmarketing.yahoo.in to visit and know more about their service.
I am actually already using google adwords to promote some of my websites. The reason of not using yahoo so far is that
- I am very much satisfied with google adwords.
- I am not fully utilised google services so far. As I have limited budget. Google can provide me more targeted clicks than the budget I have.
- Google have great content network. Which provide very cheap traffic in comparision to search engine traffic. Although quality of traffic of search engine is good, but it is around 10 time costilier than content network traffic. On comparing ROI, I found traffic of content network far better.
I am presently busy on my two new project. Hopefully I will use yahoo searchmarketig also for my these project.
