I subscribe to a news alert service provided by Forbes Magazine and find that about once a day I will click on a link to one of their business-oriented stories. They are useful and well written.
This morning they sent me a link to a new service from Yahoo that they called “Yahoo’s Intelligent Search“. It sounded interesting so I clicked over to Yahoo and entered the search term “Yahoo’s Intelligent Search“. Not only was there no information on this new service at the top of the page-the first result was for “Extraterrestrial Intelligence” and the second was something about ebay-there was no reference to “Yahoo’s Intelligent Search” anywhere on the first two pages of search results.
It’s easy to see why Yahoo lags so far behind Google when they are not able to push their own new products to the top of their own search results.
We continue to show good search results for many of our products at Yahoo, but it becomes more and more difficult to understand how they can survive in the search business. They should have sold Yahoo Search to Microsoft when they had the chance.
