Let’s get this straight, I am not Google bashing here. I love the Googley folks, they rock. When it comes to categorizing information so relevant results can’t be served quickly to us Google rules! Is there more to your cyberlife of business and personal interests? You bet there is and it’s not for everyone. For online marketeers you may not be willing to invest the time needed to be a recognized “top contributer” in Yahoo! Answers. You might appreciate all the tools Google gives you (I do) in the Webmaster’s toolbox but big perspective is an asset in this world. That said, I say spread your wings. Here’s what I think Yahoo! does better than Google …
Yahoo! Website Explorer
This is my favorite tool to use when you really want to study a web site. Is one of your competitors out ranking you for keywords that you want to rank for? Yes, Google does have tools such as site- maps and a suite of other website diagnostic tools. They also use the best quality control filters in the search industry. For this reason I would prefer the Yahoo! Suite of explorer tools because I’d like to see unfiltered results. Site- explorer begins with entering the site you want to learn more about.

You will immediately see important information about the site you entered. How many pages are currently in the search engine index? How many other web sites are linking to yours? These are two key questions about any web site that are great to have answered immediately. Use this information to help you learn more about your own web site or your competitors.
It’s fast -free and requires no special account.
