It’s been a month (okay – a bit more than a month, we’ve been busy!) since our first post, Is the Yahoo! Directory worth the money? and as promised, time for the first follow-up article on the results.
As expected, the results thus far have been rather insignificant. We have not seen a dramatic increase in traffic or PageRank. That said, however, it does seem like we’ve seen a slight improvement in our position ranking for some of our targeted keywords such as “custom software development” or “web application development company”. As a caveat, though, these observations have not been accurately measured and are based on a general feeling of incoming keyword traffic based on what we see in Google Analytics.
Read our first post to view the traffic statistics prior to being accepted into the Yahoo! Directory.
