Yes, you're right, I also noticed Google & Yahoo rank the sites differently. I think it happen because Google & Yahoo use different algorythms and they weight different aspects of the site differently. Very possible it happen because Google & Yahoo treat website cache differently, For examply Yahoo is changing cache faster than Google, and while you still have a good ranking in Google your ranking in Yahoo is already dropped. I also suspect what is good for Google is not good for Yahoo simply because they are compatitors (I might be wrong saying that).
Usually I do the things for my web site, not for the search engines, and of course I apply the same basic SEO technics.
I'm not sure, but someone say Yahoo likes higher keyword density. Also on page optimization in Yahoo has much more weight than in Google, and incoming links have much less weight than in Google. Once again I'm not sure.
Have a great day
Yahoo do not use algorythms as such(its a long story), well there not robot driven. its a directory! you will get listed if they like your site. if they dont they wont. yahoo is one of the few manualy run directories so they pick what they want. all of my sites have been listed on yahoo with in 2 weeks. you can design it in a way they would like but I cant tell you how unless you phone me and we invioce you for the Info!!! ha ha.
