Algorithms in Yahoo

First, FOCUS on Google optimization and forget about Yahoo because Bing powers Yahoo search. Second, FOCUS on Google because Google, for most sites in the Western world, enjoys at least 80% of all search traffic.
Bottomline: If you have extra time to waste on chasing search engines other than Google... use that time to find more relevant backlinks or creating linkable and convertible content.

So, what kind of elements is Yahoo's search algorithm built out of? For long, it's been claimed that including keywords in the title, description and/or URL you submit to Yahoo boosts your search ranking for those words. After Yahoo introduced click-through tracking on its pages, click popularity has also been said to be an important factor.

Google PageRank also influences your ranking at Yahoo's search. As Google already provides the secondary "Web Pages" results, it wouldn't be a big surprise if parts of its algorithm were also being used to rank the primary "Web Site" results.
