Yahoo! Raises Exclusions For Quality Traffic
By: Rene LeMerle 2008-02-25 Yahoo! has just expanded their advertising keyword exclusion limit from 50 to 250 in effort to provide advertisers with better quality traffic. According to the Yahoo! Search Marketing blog: "the Excluded Words feature is definitely a positive when you need help blocking unwanted searches you believe may not be relevant."
Assuming you're running a campaign for "roses", and you're using the advanced match for the term "bouquet", you might want to add terms such as "lilies" or "carnations" to your Excluded Words list. This helps ensure searches relate to "roses" and not other flowers. The Excluded Word list isn't a new initiative created by Yahoo!, with Google offer Negative Keywords for some time, but the increase in exclusions will be welcomed by Yahoo! advertisers.Comments Tag: Yahoo Add to Del.icio.us | Digg | Reddit | Furl Have a bookmark! - About the Author: Rene is the marketing manager of ineedhits.com - a global search engine marketing company.
