Yahoo Beats Google Search


In spite of mass Google hype, good old Yahoo search is way better. It returns more relevant links quicker. I was just looking for a potential customer in the Central Adirondacks. Google gave me a bunch of useless garbage while Yahoo gave me the link to his website on return #1. When AdkI87.com tanked out last summer cause of the server, Google was returning for #1 a ceramics factory near the Northway that had the Northway listed in a map in a .pdf file while Yahoo returned a summer resort near the Northway that mentioned it several times in their site for keywords "Adirondack Northway". Now of course, my www.AdirondackNorthway.net site returns #1 for keywords "Adirondack Northway". Don't believe the hype!
