Yahoo is somewhat of a mystery to me. I figured all my hard work with google would naturally pay off in Yahoo. It seems not.

While Google are sending me about 8,000 visitors a day, Yahoo is more like 200.

I have focused on providing a good service which is naturally acquiring quality backlinks. My pages are well structured with all the relevant tags and well thought out titles etc.

With Google most of my pages rank in the top 3 for the optimized keywords. Yahoo I'm often nowhere to be seen, hidden among a ton of new and spammy sites.

Is there anything I can do to bump up my stats for Yahoo?

Hard to say. What site are you talking about specifically. Yahoo often does mirror Google, but sometimes they change things up. Also, Google just went through a readjustment on their algorithm, and perhaps Yahoo did too. Check Yahoo Site Explorer to see what pages they have indexed and how many links they are recognizing. That might give you some clues.

well, I would love for Google to send me 8000 visitors a day, so I am afraid I am not in a position to answer your question, I am more in a position to ask how did you get Google to send that traffic your way in the first place...

Good lick with your Yahoo traffic!
Cheers

I know about Google only so can't suggest you anything

The fact is that Yahoo's popularity is on the wane. Google is virtually become unrivaled and this is the reason why you are not getting enough traffic from Yahoo despite ranking top in it. The only way you will be able to get yourself out of this mess is by shifting your focus to Google and not to Yahoo.

I always optimize for Google and just wait for Yahoo to index my site as well. They have different algorithms but I continue the steps I use and seem to work for me.
