A new Slurp from Yahoo!

It’s nearly a couple of weeks since Yahoo! launched its tasty new Slurp, its Web crawler. I’ll leave it to you to read the claimed benefits from the Search Engine’s mouth, so to speak.
All this certainly explains some of the bizarre results we’ve been seeing from Yahoo! for some of the sites we track in what we now know was the run up to the official release. And the variations aren’t over yet, by the look of it - and why should they be? Unfortunately, any significant changes implemented by the search engines always leave a little mess in their wakes. Unfortunately, we all have to live with it.
But, the good thing is that we’re seeing client Web sites popping up more strongly now on Yahoo! than they have been in the recent past. We’ll be watching to see if they settle down as they should do.
