Yahoo! has a strong foothold in the search engine market -- its ranking is second only to Google, according to comScore's 2010 analysis of the search marketplace. The company hunts for new pages on the Internet on its own, making it possible to be found by the search engine without doing a thing, but you can submit your website's domain name directly to Yahoo! through "Yahoo! Site Explorer," a feature that gives Yahoo! searchers a comprehensive view of your website's content. There's also another way to saturate Yahoo! with your web presence: pay for a Yahoo! Directory listing.
