Default Re: google versus yahoo SEO

Google gives more weight to anchor text links than Yahoo, whereas with Yahoo the page content is by far the most important factor. Yahoo also uses meta tag information, whereas Google gives this very little weight if any.

Yahoo only receives about 5% of search engine traffic in the UK so it's best to optimise for Google first, then tweak it for the other search engines.
