My data shows that Yahoo has actually reverted back to a crawl done in early July around the 12th for my site. Prior to this it was showing the results of a crawl from late July if I am not mistaken.

Prior to this it was showing the results of a crawl from late July if I am not mistaken.Well I don’t have or use references from the past, but I just heard that Yahoo has claimed that one should be careful when doing themed sets of sites. And immediatly after hearing this I can see a lot of changes in the results… there has been a total wipeout of a one site network at least.
I think the results are not totally from early July as I can see some changes that I have made just a few days ago.
Yahoo’s gambling results are sometimes good but usually very poor. They have a major problem with sniffing out miniwebs of related sites. They have even resorted to using Google results (which they still have the rights to) for the first twenty or so results for some specific searches.
So, no matter what they have a long way to go. However, I don’t see them particularly going after crosslinked networks this update. Of course both Google and Yahoo have it as a priority to root out these “set of themed domains”, so the days for those are numbered, even if many are still hanging on.
