Hi Folks,
I am doing quite well in Google (PR 5) but here's my dilemma:
1) I have 150 = back links in Yahoo. Only the index page is ranking prominently in Yahoo. I included more pages and changed all the page names on July 01,04 but it looks like they have not yet been indexed in Yahoo. I also have a regional listing which only has my company name as title. It shows up on yahoo but with the same title., thus resulting in no visits. I tried to talk to Yahoo but they offered no advice and asked me to go to try express submission and I can request the regional to be removed.
Choice 1 - I believe MSN gets results from Yahoo. Is that true? If it is, then I get the current title in MSN and not Yahoo. If I remove my regional listing from Yahoo then may be Yahoo will then show my original title thru organic results. would it be better? How long will it take for other pages to get indexed?
Choice2 - Submit to Yahoo express but no sure what title would I get so I could be back to square one!
Choice 3 - Remove regional and go sitematch.
How do I know if Yahoo has already indexed my home page organically. Is backlink the rightway to check.
Please advise me what to do . I know I have the potential to rank high on Yahoo and MSN.
Thanks in Advance

MSN gets its' results from Yahoo but uses the page title tag from the Yahoo DB. A site in the Yahoo directory has the page title overwritten by the directory title in the Yahoo search results on Yahoo. Going into SiteMatch should reverse this and your page title should appear (but sometimes doesn't). However, I would hold off on going into Sitematch right now. Rumours of changes are growing daily!
The directory normally lists the business name but you can suggest a change or remove your site from the directory.

I went to suggest a change about my Yahoo directory listing, but it always do not recognize my URL, I don't know why? But in fact, my site is in directory now.

Thanks MakeMeTop,
If I asked to be reomved could they also remove my organic listing? Could it also effect my Google?
