Linking For Yahoo! Search Optimization

Now that I possibly convinced you that SEO is different by engine, how do you build links that Yahoo! would find important? That is the featured discussion at WebmasterWorld named Yahoo - Where to Start with Link SEO.

I'll summarize some of the points, but the thread is worth a read...

  • Get ODP/Dmoz links
  • Get related directory links
  • Trade links with related but not competing businesses
  • Send out articles for other sites to syndicate (include links in them back to you)
  • Use Yahoo!'s Site Explorer Tool
  • Link bait!
  • Get on the good side of bloggers
  • KEY: Try to get the attention of local media

Now, don't these all work at also Google & MSN? Or maybe not...
