Microsoft Webmaster Tools to support Yahoo! Site Explorer Community
- Posted July 8th, 2011 at 12:00 pm by Yahoo! Search
- Categories: Developer, News/Announcements, Search, Site Explorer
Starting last year we have been transitioning the backend for our organic search to the Microsoft search platform as part of the Yahoo! & Microsoft Search Alliance. The transition of algorithmic search results for Yahoo! Search result pages is complete for US, Canada, Australia, Brazil and Mexico. We plan to transition the rest of world markets later this year.
In an August 2010 blog post, we said we would continue Site Explorer with a focus on new features for webmaster community, even after the transition to Microsoft platforms is complete. We listened to your feedback, and along with the team from Bing Webmaster Center looked jointly at the roadmap for the webmaster tools. Having two webmaster portals for a single source for organic results does not add enough value. Once organic results are transitioned to Bing in all the markets, we plan to shut down Yahoo! Site Explorer and Microsoft’s Webmaster Tools will be the source for Bing and Yahoo! webmaster site and analytics data.
The Bing Webmaster Center team has been actively adding new features over the past few months, including detailed traffic statistics and a new inbound links feature. Microsoft is also committed to build analytic reports that include Yahoo! search usage. Further details on these reports will be coming soon. You might have some questions that we will try to answer below:
When will Site Explorer shutdown?
We are working with Microsoft to transition organic results in all markets to the Microsoft Search platform. Site Explorer will shut down once all markets are transitioned. This is expected later this year. We will keep updating you with progress of the transition at our Search Blog.
Should I start using Bing Webmaster Center?
Yes, webmasters should start using Bing Webmaster Center.
Does that mean that I should stop using Site Explorer?
No. In a large part of the world, we have not yet transitioned to Microsoft search platform. Hence, it is important that Yahoo! continues to receive your site/sitemap submissions so that search results from Yahoo! are fresh and relevant for markets that have not switched over. In order to continue to receive relevant organic traffic from Yahoo! search results, we encourage you to continue using Site Explorer as you have in the past until we fully switch over to Microsoft search platform for organic results.
Does it mean that I don’t have to optimize for Yahoo! and Bing Search engines separately in the future?
That is correct. We anticipate that later this year, Yahoo!’s organic results will be powered by Microsoft’s search platform in all parts of the world. After that point, any optimization that you do on Bing Webmaster Center tool will be reflected in Yahoo! organic search results.
Will the Site Explorer APIs be shut down?
The APIs were scheduled to be shut down at the end of last year, but the timeframe has been extended for the YDN Site Explorer API up until September 15, 2011.
Note: For BOSS Site Explorer APIs shut down information, scheduled for July 20, 2011, please see this April 2011 blog post.
Will Yahoo! continue to crawl my website?
Although the organic results will be powered by Microsoft Search platforms, Yahoo! will continue to innovate on the search experience beyond the services delivered by Microsoft. In order to provide Yahoo! users with an amazing search experience, our slurp crawlers may continue to selectively crawl websites to help support these efforts.

What is replacing Site Explorer? Bing Webmaster Tools does not have equivalent functionality.
How do you explore *other* sites e.g. competitors? That’s one of the key uses of Site Explorer!
Please don’t shut it down, we need diversity. And as Scott already said BWT doesn’t have equivalent functionality.
Search the Yahoo engine
I will miss Yahoo siteexplorer. :)
This is one of the best feature of Yahoo which I really like and I am very sad after this post.
Use Open Site Explorer, that give heaps more link information.
Yahoo always does the same mistake all the time. I can’t understand why they shut down their services instead of selling them to another vendor??
Cool! I’m waiting for so long ^.^
I find it sad that this tool is no longer available soon will, I think absolutely nothing of Bing.
That’s stupid shutting down yahoo site explorer.
What is replacing Site Explorer? Bing Webmaster Tools does not have equivalent functionality.lets see how it works .But its a very bad news
Be interesting to see how the combining of Bing and Yahoo! will result in available tools for monitoring web performance. YSE has been an excellent resource over the years for monitoring link profiles for websites and even the ability to analyse backlinks for a specific URL rather than just the entire domain was a feature rarely available on any other backlink checking tools.
Would be great to see a rebranded similar tool over at Bing Webmaster Center at a later stage.
Yahoo like big car with small vehicles
Yahoo! oneSearch (for mobiles) still use your engine or has switched to Bing engine ?
If not use Bing, how to submit web pages for mobiles ???!
Yahoo Site Explorer was much more easier and valuable than Google.. we use for many purpose… for back links… Also Yahoo crawls much more faster and deeper than Google or Bing.. We miss you Yahoo….hoo..
Pretty sad news that yahoo site explorer will shut. I always using this tool to search engine backed competitive analysis link.
I am very curious to see if Microsoft Webmaster Tool can enhance the link tracking that Site Explorer currently provides or will it be watered down. Also will they have an API so other solutions can provide valuable link tracking to SEO clients.
Scott,
Reading that it will be Bing Webmaster tools taking over.
Have you looked at it yet? They’ve added a lot of features to it over the past few months and hopefully more to come.
Very sad news, unless these features can be added to Bing.
Yes. I wondering now! all people using google But; we need a new search engine and webmasters tool
thanks
Thanks yahoo. I wondering this tool. And I am giving deck to this project
And we need a new webmaster tools
thanks
Please don’t shut it down, we need diversity. And as Scott already said BWT doesn’t have equivalent functionality.
Thank you Yahoo. I am using the Yahoo Site Explorer more or less twice a week and it is really helpful for the SEO job I am doing.
Regards,
Alejandro Garcia
This cannot be true! I’m really shocked. Can bing’s webmaster tool be equivalent? oh no no no.
Sad news! I’m looking for other services :(
YSE was a very usefull tool and it´s a shame that this tool will be shutdown. Thx for support over several years.
It is a shame that this tool will not be longer available. Thx for support over several years.
Yahoo Site Explorer is one of the greatest free SEO tools ever created. It was constantly updated, listed links in order of importance, and let you see the links for your home page and entire site. RIP.
Congratulations for the post those information are fantastic simplismente
good move will be beneficial for the majority!! Great less places to login to update and manage my clients
Thank you Yahoo. I am using the Yahoo Site Explorer more or less twice a week and it is really helpful for the SEO job I am doing.
This is really sad. Site Explorer has been very useful to SEOs. Switching to Bing Webmaster Tools may take a lot of getting used to.
anyway, thanks, Site Explorer. You’ve been of great service.
It’s very very sad news for the SEO community. Thanks yahoo for helping us over several years :)
Cool! I’m waiting for so long ^.^
It is a shame that Yahoo is shutting down such a great platform. It is one the best tools from an SEO standpoint.I hope we will see an improved version of it in Microsoft search platform.
Site Explorer is an SEO’s dream tool. I am sad to see it retired. Hopefully the Bing webmaster tools will just add the identical feature.
You have introduced BOSS v2 which will serve the purpose for web search but there is no replacement offered for inlinks.
Why not add inlinks feature in BOSS v2 or at least don’t shut site explorer’s export feature.
Do you really hear our voice?
I hope yes. :)
Sad sad day. Feels like Site Explorer was around since the beginning of the Web. And it was a very helpful tool
Has Yahoo got depleted of the the funds to support a free significant tool.
Our accounting and bookkeeping service not only reduces your cost but also enables you to get error free completed work on time for delivery to your clients.
I find it sad that this tool is no longer available soon.
I’m sad to hear it’s only 1 month left of this great tool. Hopefully, Bing will take part of the functionality on-board?
oh oh, sad news…please dont do that. i use the site explorer every day :( – anyone has a free alternative?
This instrument was good, and it was true interessno.
This is terrible news, please try to keep it running.
Thank you
oh no that is really bad why this happened and why they did this ? any one aware of that
Cool! I’m waiting for so long
the same waiting
Yahoo web resources is good
Quote “We listened to your feedback”
Well then, listen again to the comments to this post.
9 out of 10 say: please do NOT shut it down.
You*ll lose big time when you shut the YSE down.
People will move to SEOmoz, and for good.
So long Yahoo
dee
yahoo definitely thinking and bringing in results!
Nice project …. yahoo & McS
i hope someone will create an service like this :( …maybe bing oder google
Actually, until this announcement I noticed that some sort of integration between between Yahoo and BING had occurred. About the YAHOO EXPLORER, Bing has its own WEBMASTER ACCOUNT which runs on SILVERLIGHT. So after the YAHOO EXPLORER is retired at the close of this year, what will happen to WEBMASTERS who maintained their accounts with YAHOO? Will they be migrated to BING or the integration will occur on these two platforms too?
It’s a shame Site Explorer is being shutdown. However, I think Bing Webmaster Tools will have some great features, given time.
Yahoo siteexplorer is the best
i can’t understand why yahoo close search monkey. i think it’s the best tools for seo organic
I take it this only refers to site explorer. The BOSS api will still remain active right?
Use Open Site Explorer, that give heaps more link information.
Sad news.. Thanks yahoo, we”ll miss you..
Bing has its own WEBMASTER ACCOUNT which runs on SILVERLIGHT
Bing has its own which runs on SILVERLIGHT
Before you get to clever in the make over, can you at least master reading an XML Sitemap file. If a file contains 10K URIs, then you should report this (as long as the URIs are valid). Currently neither read or report an accurate URI count.
At the same time, it would be nice if you could index the URIs within a year of submission.
I don’t think it will happen, as SEOmoz is paid tool.
Hi
I have used Bing silverlight and i am confused as it is not as simple as Yahoo.
So dont go anywhere stay here.
See you
Thanks yahoo
hey guys anybody noticed that yahoo’s boss api is not working? shutting it down????
I like site explorer, it will be a shame when it goes. To be honest, I’ve only posted a comment just to get a free link….just like the rest of the posters…
PLEASE don’t shut down Yahoo Site Explorer! It’s the only tool left to check our websites backlinks.
sad news,Yahoo always give us in great service
I think it needs a period of time for a new thing to go maturity
Use Open Site Explorer, that give heaps more link information.Thanks yahoo
For us in the SEO industry, optimizing two search engines with the help of just one tool is a boon. But if that comes with shutting down Y Site Explorer, it isn’t something appreciable. Y Site Explorer if not fro many great reasons, surely has helped us to tack the maximum number of inbound links to the site, more than any existing reputed tool. I know our comments are not strong enough for Hemant Minocha to force the Yahoo administration for continuation of the tool, but if it has to be this way, we expect more and more innovation in Bing Webmaster Tools and that should be coming from Yahoo. Period.
Yahoo Site explorer is a great tool. Would Bing for webmasters be able to give same features ?
Please don’t shut this tool down unless you have plans to integrate what it does into Bing Webmaster tools!!!!!!!
Site Explorer is a very important SEO tool. I am sad to see it retired. Hopefully the Bing webmaster tools will just add the identical feature.
Cool! I’m waiting for so long
Have also been waiting for some type of integration as well, I have to say Microsoft and Yahoo are definitely going the right way with things.
It makes me feel so surprise.I never know there is such a wonderful place that I can find what I need.
My yahoo siteexplorer Then there is a problem for some time.
what can simply use the Yahoo Site Explorer while Bing Webmaster is disabled, or both active for single site?
Site Explorer is a very important SEO tool. I am sad to see it retired. Hopefully the Bing webmaster tools will just add the identical feature.
When will Site Explorer shutdown,it is very simple, you can clean your computer!
Well done. Long wait is over.!
Looking forward to the transition!
Pretty sad news that yahoo site explorer will shut. I always using this tool to search engine backed competitive analysis link.
This is one of the best feature of Yahoo which I really like and I am very sad after this post.
Please don’t shut it down, we need diversity. And as Scott already said BWT doesn’t have equivalent functionality.
Thanks yahoo for your wondering tool.
Nice read and will look for updates time to time.
I wish it wasn’t shutting down any idea’s if they plan on making a new one in a different location? Cause I haven’t found anything else thats useful for checking links?
cool…weiter sooo.
This is terrible news, please try to keep it running.
Thank you
Please don’t shut it down, we need diversity. And as Scott already said BWT doesn’t have equivalent functionality.
This should be interesting to see how it unfolds. Haven’t been using this for a while but for the short period that i have, i enjoyed it. Thank you and look forward to the new project :)
The bing webmaster tools its good.
It’s a very bad news :-(
Yahoo Explorer was for years the only tool to get real picture of site’ living. And now? Google doesn’t have such functionality. On the battle field of competition Y won’t feel safe.
Site Explorer, isn’t the best thing in the world, let’s see what Bing’s Webmaster Center has to offer…
it will make new challenge for me to making my site keep appear in the number one yahoo page result
Thanks information Microsoft Web master
Yes it will new challenge.
i think its good new for yahoo. it will enable them to compete against google and keep costs down
i don’t like the look and feel of the bing webmaster tools though i would prefer if bing used yahoo webmaster tools
yahoo webmaster tools has more functions
I wonder if Bing or Yahoo support Cross-Domain Canonical tag or not. If the answer is not, what can we do without 301 redirect (cause the policy of Google AdWords doesn’t allow 301 redirect for landing page).
Thanks.
okey i will using your instruction. thanks.
Nice read and will look for updates time to time.
it is big place for your success
please yahoo dont shutdown Yahoositeexplorer.. it really help me a lot :-(
even if yahoo made another feature like yahoositeexplorer and it is paid one , i will pay it for sure…
Yahoo siteexplorer. :)
Bigger isn’t always better. Now the availability to use diverse site development tools will be limited.
Hopefully The Bing Web mastertools work as well as Yahoo.
I am very pleased with this article is to increase the performance of my blog. Is there a program that is suitable for evaluating the results of the webmaster of this tool?
yahoo best
I really enjoy reading yours as the postings are so simple to read and follow. Outstanding. Please keep it up. Thanks.’
I hope we’ll stil be able to use the site explorer tool on bing, if not it would be a terrible loss for all seos around the world.
hopefully this tool help me
yahoo very best
great thanks
What is replacing Site Explorer? Bing Webmaster Tools does not have equivalent functionality.lets see how it works .But its a very bad news
That’s a good news for me..
this tool is shutdown?
Siteexplorer was my fav. Hate Bing webmaster tool as it looks quite minimalistic.
The real and only problem I see with this transition is having to stop using Yahoo’s site explorer and then setting everything up again in Bing. Would be great if our info could just be moved into Bing’s system, since we went through the trouble of verifying our website ownership, etc. We will have to do that again with Bing. Not fun. :-(
It’s sad that Yahoo site explorer will shut down. I have been using this tool for a while now to analyze the competition.
Thanks for this post and the great tools for SEO. As someone who tries to optimize my own websites regularly, this is truly helpful!
I hope this give me solution for our tools webmaster thank alot…
super tool i hope
Very good indeed
Thanks for discussing this particular. I wasn’t conscious of your blog, however will certainly return back more often. Such as nice work, you are definitely my personal atom reader. fantastic this Microsoft Webmaster Tools will help yahoo
Will YSE will be completely replaced by Bing all over the world before this year end or only for selected region? For example for Sri Lanka?
it was just part of whole webmasters as not all wemaster’s understand how to submit correctly. thanks to microsoft webmaster tool!
i hope the transition doesn’t effect on this greate service
Great! I usually use yahoo explorer I could try Bing tools too!
The closing of site explorer will be a big blow to to the SEO industry, especially for the smaller SEO companies and developers who have long relied heavily on your data to provide reliable competitive backlink research. Some of us prefer not to have to charge our clients the earth for our services.
As it stands the only alternatives currently available are paid monthy options, and out of those the only one worth considering is insanely overpriced, especially for a small business’ in the current climate.
It is a very sad day indeed ;-(
- as usual, its all about the money.. not impressed.
There is no suitable replacement without paying an extortionate amount of money..
This tool will be very useful for a blogger and webmaster, thank you for the information and sharing.
Sad news in the world of search engines…
Regards.
Thank you Yahoo.
My regards. Thank you for this tool!
This is one of the best feature of Yahoo which I really like and I am very sad after this post.
It’s a good news for our blog and it’s teh big deal between two giant corporate
Oh my…. i need to start all over on Bing again. :(
wow nice, good job yahoo. I will miss Yahoo siteexplorer. :)
`I am dreading the day that the site explorer is shutting down – really can’t believe you all are doing this – Explorer you will be missed but never forgotten….RIP
Good,It’s very easy for login.
Thanky You für Siteexplorer. I Like the tool very much. Thx
it was very good tool , thanks
Thank You, Siteexplorer.
Siteexplorer.
Nice tool.
That’s a good news for me and Nice tools
thanx………great work. Yahoo rocks
Any recommended free alternative to YSE? Please let me know..
Thanks
Great tool..Thank you yahooooo…….
ya me too.
Thank for your very helpful article
This should be interesting. I have not used the Microsoft portal for much of anything…mostly Yahoo and Google. I guess there is no better time than right now to begin learning how to transition from Yahoo to Microsoft for continued placement in the search engines. I really liked how simple it was and how very easy the Yahoo tools were to use and with great results. I’m hoping this switch won’t be too difficult.
Thanks. That is a great news.
sephhh… i like this
Please shut down quickly. Others can not find your backlinks easily. It is a good thing.
Such a nice tool but it ends this way….
*sigh*
That is a great news.
It seems many tools are being transitioned over to microsoft. I did think yahoo explorer worked well.
really a very useful post, and i have got enough information from it. thanks very much.
These are very bad news.
yes, this is very nice thig, i like the news
great news..
it would be really bad if siteexplorer will be down, please don’t do that and rather make it more advance in upcoming tool. :)
Thank for the good news
I hope that good news goto my country
The death of Site Explorer will be like losing a close friend.
Bye bye, site explorer. We will all miss you!
One of the main reasons for using Yahoo Site Explorer is the ability to search inlinks for a competing website. If this is going to be removed then there really is no need for me to sign up for Bing Webmaster Central. I don’t want to analyze my own site in yet another tool – I can do that on a million other sites including Google Webmaster Tools. I want to analyze my competitiors sites and Yahoo Site Explorer allowed me to do that by seeing the backlinks to those sites.
Adieu YDN Site Explorer. Aujourd’hui est le jour!
It seems many tools are being transitioned over to microsoft. I did think yahoo explorer worked well.
Now its simple
Loss of Yahoo Site Explorer will be most unfortunate. I am skeptical that Microsoft Webmaster Tools will be as useful but time will tell.
Let’s be perfectly honest here – YE is MOSTLY used by SEOs as a tool for the purposes of analysing and manipulating search engine rankings, so you could hardly blame them if they did away with this kind of service altogether! However, if you want a conspiracy theory, here it is: Bing is supposedly less reliant on backlinks for its algorithm, so the backlink information published via YE, and in future through the new Bing service, will primarily harm Google, since people will continue to use the data to screw up Google’s SERPS :)
i think its good new for yahoo. thx
Too bad that Yahoo Site Explorer is closed
Thank You, Siteexplorer.
Very bad
For years I have been working well with the Site Explorer. I use the webmaster tools of Yahoo on a regular basis. I would only hope that the individual parameters are explained better.
Is that really good or bad?
The Site Explorer, I can only recommend. Thank you for the article.
I am a newbie with Microsoft webmaster tools but i hope this will help me to get a better website and gain more organic traffic.
I hope the Microsoft webmaster tools will help me to gain a lot of organic traffic and get my website to became better !
If you want to know you must to use it, i realy believe its good !
I think it’s good…
great information for building new blog for better.
i will bookmark this page. and waiting next more some tips other.
Yahooooooo, please don’t close the SiteExplorer. Why the heck would you think about closing something that people love?
If revenue is a constraint, we, users, won’t mind some display ADs alongside the site explorer page.
Please please let the siteexplorer live!
And if your blog is well SE optimized..then surely it will reflect in your blog stats too.(in the form of yahoo.search..etc )
just be patient and add genuine content to your blog-leave rest upto the Yahoo..sure it will index your blog. Indexing is sometimes a complex process to grasp-depends upon many factors relating to your blog!!
All the best.
Yahoo site explorer is indeed great free tool, hope Microsoft listens and provides Bing equivalent. In the meantime some backlink data is available via other paid services.
Think this will much more for SEO builder
coolblognews
I am a newbie with Microsoft webmaster tools but i hope this will help me to get a better website and gain more organic traffic.
Farwell Site Explorer! So this is really bad!
Great Post – i don’t really know if it is bad … hum
please friendz visit this blog and join it. It can help.
I have been using for a lot of time Yahoo Site Explorer and I think that is a great tool, but maybe some improvement would be need to be the tool that every seo freelance wants to use.
Will bing’s Webmaster Tools launch a beta model of the new site explorer before shutting it down?
google webmaster tools is good
Yes, bing’s need jump step
I have few site with which i would like to use this service,i hope it will be available soon in Malaysia as promised.
Can we trust Microsoft to do a better job??
Go the other world markets – it is very good.
Yahoo! and Microsoft Search Alliance – this is a promising project.
Yes. I wondering now! all people using google But; we need a new search engine and webmasters tool
thanks
For years I have been working well with the Site Explorer. I use the webmaster tools of Yahoo on a regular basis. I would only hope that the individual parameters are explained better.
Loved this tool – farewell.
Will automatically transferred to the old accounts from Yahoo Webmaster Tools to Bing ?
This should be a turnaround alliance
Will bing’s Webmaster Tools launch a beta model of the new site explorer before shutting it down?
This happened on my early days in internet world.
I for one will be sad to see Site Explorer go away but I do hope the Microsoft webmaster tools help me gain organic traffic.
I use yahoo through this exciting tool I hope to go forward
some change to improve services… but i don’t want to close SiteExplorer.
I am very curious to see if Microsoft Webmaster Tool can enhance the link tracking that Site Explorer currently provides or will it be watered down. Also will they have an API so other solutions can provide valuable link tracking to SEO clients.
I think Bing Webmaster Tools will have some great features.
Very sad news. I hope the Microsoft webmaster tools help me again by organic traffic.
i dont understand clearly,do u have any Chinese post.
I am really sad yahoo site explorer its no longer among us, It was the best free tool out there.
thanks

Just hope that Bing will provide more helpful features for webmasters better than Site Explorer did.
Yahoo site explorer is indeed great free tool, hope Microsoft listens and provides Bing equivalent. In the meantime some backlink data is available via other paid services.
The only reason I used Yahoo site explorer was while doing competition analysis. Exploring how many incoming links the competition has to determine how difficult it would be to outrank them. Without this feature, I won’t be using Yahoo, or Bing for anything. Sorry to see your service go!
i can’t understand if this is a good news or no..but i am missing yahoo site explorer..can anyone provide me the alternative!!!
the best blog
sorry, very sorry.

I’m trying to get the same functionality out of Bing Webmaster Tools but am having some trouble… Where is the “explore site” option?
RIP Yahoo! Site Explorer. I’ve been using this tools since 8 years. I’m gonna miss it.
Bing has it… but needs to evolve and the simplicity of Yahoo! Site Explorer as it began the trend of SEO tools.
Again RIP Y!SE
Brad
Please come back again Yahoo Site Explorer.. I am missing you….
Yahho Site Explorer is gone. Now no more site explorer unless I use google tools.
Oh no, not good news… anyway we hope it works later
very sad !
The best link tool is gone. How am i supposed to live my digital life without it? We need a replacement!
Oh my god ,this is not what i need ,not what i want , i lost my mind when i read this blog
I hope the Microsoft webmaster tools help me again by organic traffi
I THINK BING WILL HAVE A BETTER JOB
my god , this service is my life
I am unhappy to see yahoo site explorer go away. Bing won’t replace it for sure. They don’t like such free tools.Bad news anyways
I think Bing Webmaster Tools will have some great features.
I use yahoo through this exciting tool I hope to go forward
Yes, i liked Bing’s features too.
i dont understand clearly,do u have any Chinese post.

This happened on my early days in internet world.
best of luck.
Yahoo Site Explorer was much more easier
thats too bad
why yahoo site explorer merged into bing webmaster tools i love yahoo site explorer. and what about that websites which i already add in yahoo site explorer.
I found that it is liked Bing’s features too
Sounds good, u people are helping webmasters and publishers to reduce their work load of optimization, thats cool!
Hope this alliance will be benefiacial for Publishers and Webmasters.
Come back!!!
why i know my site tobe confirm n this yahooo is very good idea to my blog if my blog confirm

I think now that time yahoo is second best search engine in all over world. but
Why yahoo stop their service?
Yahoo site explorer is indeed great free tool, hope Microsoft listens and provides Bing equivalent. In the meantime some backlink data is available via other paid services.
Yahoo site explorer is great thing.
Disappointed for stopping Yahoo Site Explorer Services.
i can’t understand if this is a good news or no. .
but yahoo is the best
I hope this new tools make us easier tu use and usefull. Thank for explanation.
Thanks yahoo. I wondering this tool.
Glad to know it, best of luck.
I don’t think that the link analysis tool will be back. Sad news…
So sad to see the link analysis tool gone.
Just hope that Bing will provide more useful features for webmasters and better than the existing Site Explorer
Regards
yahoo explorer is the best tool, bring him alive!
I think Bing Webmaster Tools will have some great features.
Expanding horizon, enlightening mind. Bravo Yahoo Site Explorer.
I’ll definitely miss Yahoo’s Site Explorer

I don’t think change yahoo site explorer to bing webmaster tool which is similar to Google webmaster tool is a good way. I really don’t like it.
Bing ? Nice to have.. :)
wauw, it’s so great….
tahnk you…
We are missing you Yahoo Site Explorer. Is there anything equivalent in Bing webmaster tools?
It is like a combination of two well known sites equal to a very powerful site
Yahoo Site Explorer will never be the same, you never thing about you clients when you make those deals.
I have been trying to get the link checker from Bing for more that a hour with not success.
I do not not why Bing make thing so difficult, they have everything to do it right, I always think, Bing decision makers want Google to be always on top.
Thats make a difficult think… must be learn again for this feature :(
need more the beginner for this features
yes,i also thinking about it. I will miss this service :(
I’m sorry to hear that.
I really do miss Yahoo Site Explorer. I keep coming back to this page hoping one day you might reconsider. Anyhow, I’ll keep lookinng for an alternative.
Now i will have to pay to find backlinks of other sites unless someone knows of another site!Does not look like Bing will do the job!!!! SAD!!!!
Thats very nice word. Yahoo siteexplorer give me more strike webmaster…. Thanks a lot… See you later
I have bing webmaster tool installed, thanks admin
Ya, interesting to see what Bing is going to bring, but hello, its December 2011.. if they haven’t brought it yet they’re not going to bring it. May as well forget it and start looking for another tool.
As usual you just get use to and rely on using something and it get discontinued or replace with something much inferior.
I need to know too how do you explore *other* sites e.g. competitors? That’s one of the key uses of Site Explorer!
This is not at all fair…
I wonder the same thing…
Hello Dear I tried to manage your blog I’m registered but not Yahoo search engine if you do this to me please do thank you
How cool is cool? It is cool.
I just use the bing webmaster tool, and still starting to learned the features…
Thank you for the information thats for me is usefull. We will wait another tips and article that always valuable and great idea…thank you
