		<description>What happened to the Slurp ? It only indexes 1/4 of what it used to index before. Also, may High PR inbound links are not getting indexed.......

		<description>In the last month my site has virtually disappeared from the yahoo search index. I had about 250 pages indexed, now I have 11. I went from 500 unique impressions a day to ZERO. My site is totally clean with no tricky linking whatsoever, no subdomains. Every page has over 350 words of original content. I had dozens of page 1 entries for a wide variety of keywords, now I have ZERO. Two years worth of work with good steady revenue has been reduced to a big GOOSE EGG. What a bummer!!!

		<description>I really hope someone can help here.  It seems like the new bot just hits the same pages over and over and we are losing pages in the yahoo index.  Then I discovered that when I log into yahoo site explorer it says my site has one subdomain, we have never had a subdomain.  Could this all be connected somehow?

		<description>Great I lost all my rankings again. First the weather update now the new crawler. It seems like everytime you guys try to do something new, we see more spam in the serps. Keep up the good work.

		<description>OMG - this has trashed some of my clients listings. What the hec did you do? There&#039;s a load of trashy results in place of the relevant listings that existed before hand. The results are no longer to be seen in the index. Nowhere at all. Something has majorly gone wrong. Put it back!!!

		<description>Thanks for the Weather Report.

One oddity I&#039;ve noticed since July 28 is as follows: For a certain two word search with about 9 million results, there is one index that returns MySite as #1 - which it was consistently for several months prior to July 28. Another index has MySite &#039;missing&#039; for this same search (by missing I mean not in top 100 results). For a different two word search, MySite is still first page on the later index, but dropped to fourth page on the former. Yet both indices seem to return MySite for a variety of other searches about the same as prior to July 28 - at least not any substantive differences I&#039;ve noticed. I recall in 2004 and maybe early 2005 noting that Yahoo seemed to have 3 distinct indices, but in 2006 I don&#039;t recall seeing such violent differences in search results. I don&#039;t know if it is cookies, IP address or phase of the moon that causes the different indices to be be used. Are several indices in the process of being merged or is this some kind of A/B testing? Danke (Go ahead and tell us - we&#039;ll keep your answer a secret.)
