This is from Yahoo FAQ site on search engine submission:\n\nQuestion: \nI have submitted my website to Yahoo! several times and I have yet to get listed. What am I doing wrong?\n\nAnswer:\n\nChances are, the submissions your doing are fine but there are a few tips you should follow when submitting to Yahoo. In no particular order, here they are:\n\n    * Pick only the most appropriate category. If you believe your site should be listed in more than one category, only submit your website once and indicate on the form while submitting what the other categories are. Try to limit yourself to only one additional category.\n    * Yahoo wants to offer unique sites. If your site has nothing new or different from the other sites already in Yahoo, chances are you won't get listed.\n    * People list Yahoo. Yahoo is not like other search engines, an actual person will visit your site and determine if your pages are worth adding to Yahoo. Make sure that what you have to offer will appeal to Yahoo's users.\n    * Get popular. If your a popular site (ie: lots of other sites link to you), then your site will become more noticed and all the major search engines (including Yahoo will begin indexing you).\n    * Avoid sending multiple submissions, submit once and wait at least 2 months before trying again. Swarming Yahoo with submissions will only get you blacklisted.\n    * Get regional. Try submitting your website to a section of Yahoo under your local state/province or city. Chances are, the editors in these smaller sections of Yahoo are looking for community involvement and will list you.\n\nOn a final note, getting listed in Yahoo! can sometimes take up to 8 weeks. Yahoo! is by far one of the top search engines and as such takes a very long time to get listed so above all, have

Each search engine has its own submission form available. These forms are very basic, just input a validation code on the submit screen and the URL (www address) of your website.\n\nBe sure to check and see if your website isn't already listed. If you need help on how to do this, just contact me and I will walk you through it.

Unfortunately you cannot. And yahoo is not the only one that has your site in cache. There is google for one. And then there are websites simply dedicated to images of the internet. As far as reindexing goes, the search engines use "robots" (tiny programs) that go out all over the internet and look at what has changed. Sooner or later the Yahoo robot will pick up your website changes.

Like they all said, but pay attention to the actual ERROR CODE Its throwin out. \n\nLIKE HTTP 404, or maybe a 505? Thats what can tell us whats\ngoing on with our internet. Also, when ever that happens do 2 things. \n\n1. Ensure the address is correct (to the best of your knowledge)\n2. Open another window / and or browser and go to yahoo.com\nand click on a couple (any) links If Yahoo comes up and your able to click around \nto non-cached (stored) pages then YOUR CONNETED to the internet.\n\nIf the address is correct, and your connected and your STILL getting these errors...\nwatch out...you may have cought a bug

It can take anywhere from 3-4 weeks to 3-4 months for a site to be indexed by search engines.\n\nThere are things you should be aware about like good content, good structure, use of META tags in the HTMLs head section.  Choosing appropriate keywords and having relevant content to the keywors that you have chosen.  Inbound links from relevant sites and outbound links to relevant sites.  These are all contributing factors in your websites visibility.\n\nYou can also submit for a fee or for free into an appropriate category in the Yahoo directory.  You can also submit to various other directories.  These also increase your site's visibility.

take a picture of yourself, name it your name.jpg, and imbed it in the index.html of a public web site. it should start showing up after the next "spider" by the search engine. It helps to have a real domain name for the web site and not just a hosted site by an ISP (www.something.com versus www.isp.com/~yoursite/). Search engines don't normally crawl through photos on a photo site like yahoo photos.

set up a web site and a name first

First, cheat and look for your site by name to ensure it's even "in" the index.  Then, there are programs out there that you can buy that'll "scroll through" those 40+ pages for you and let you know where you're at.  Submission Wizard is one such program, but I know there's many more.

Just follow the directions that you find at http://search.yahoo.com/info/submit.html and that will do the trick.

Press F5. \n\nYou're probably using an older browser that doesn't update sites like yahoo automatically.

<a href="http://www.yahoo.com">www.yahoo.com</a>\nErm... that might work..

It sounds like maybe your site is new. You would want to have lots of significant content on the site so that the web "spiders" can find your site and index its significance. Once that's done, your browser likely will work in the manner you want it to. That's a function of the browser working together with your preferred search engine.

Ok, this make little sense. Do you mean the index page is not the first page the user comes across? All your webpages should have meta tags too, so change that anyway.\n\nIf it is your webpage, then it is upto you, not yahoo, to sort it out. Just FTP/upload all the pages again, rename the page you want to display as the home/main page as index.html (or other extension) nd add it to the highest directory. So if your site in www.mysite.com the index page will be www.mysite.com/index.html \n\nAs for the links, ahve you wrote them out correctly? in this format <a href="url">text here</a>

1. check your firewall or popup killer and allow popups (yahoo toolbar has a popup killer) \n\n2. check the settings with whatever browser you may be using and make sure the sites youre trying to view arent blocked or security is set to low\n\n3. download and run "Java2"\n\n4. download and run adaware and spybot (careful how you use these)\n\n5. the site the popup is linked may not exist anymore....happens...in which case its a dead link dont stress....get on with your life\n\nusually these steps will most problems.......especially step 5 :)

First, make sure that your server is running.\nGo to URL: http://localhost\nThen, make sure you saved your files into c:&#92;inetpub&#92;wwwroot\n\nBTW: Why you use FrontPage? Not all webservers support it. I suggest you to use DreamWeaver, then use PHP or ASP.
