WTF with Yahoo Site Explorer? anyone knows?

[dolly123]

Hi WF members!

Recently for the past week, my backlinks indexed by yahoo site explorer has dropped. About a week ago I had about 370 total backlinks and now 150. Has my site been de-indexed? Has someone here experienced anything like this. Also, my targeted keywords has not dropped in the serps. Thanks!!

ya man same shit happened to me, im pretty pissed, all of my Local SEO clients just dropped off the map out of nowhere, I have like 1/3 the total backlinks i used to...

One of my sites went from 175,000 backlinks showing in YSE to only 55,000. Strangely enough, my SERPS have increased. I'm now on the first page (in Bing and Yahoo) for like 13 keyphrases I've been desperately trying to rank for and all of my other targeted keyphrases shot up as well. Now EVERY SINGLE keyphrase I was trying to rank for (39 in total) is now on at least page 2. Strange....

My backlinks are yo-yoing at the moment, seems to change day by day

Had the same thing happen to me. 50% decrease. But they seem to slowly be recovering.

Same issue here too

May be some sort of Server error.

This happens everyone once and a while, everything will go back to normal. Don't worry about it.

sounds like an algorithm update or a momentary glitch in the system

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't yahoo merge with bing, and now yahoo is powered by bing? So, that could explain the drop everybody is experiencing with yahoo.

I cant understand the issue fully.
