Different results in various Yahoo Searches

Hello

I have been checking my positions in Yahoo for various sites and search terms, and whenever I do a check on Yahoo.com, my results are buried, but when doing a check on the Yahoo UK search, I am coming up top.

Also, on the UK search, I am asking for results from the WEB and not just the UK. The number of results on both the UK and com are the same, but the results are not. Strangely enough, my sites are not based in UK, and are all .coms.

For one certain search term, I come up at number 2 on the UK search, yet on the .com search, I am number 63 <-- Thats a quite a difference.

Anyone have any idea how ( if possible ) I can improve my results in the Yahoo.com search, rather than the UK version ??

Thanks for your time.

Tough luck I guess. Maybe Yahoo bots are more strict. Though it does seem rather weird. Maybe you some some terms related to UK stuff? If you provide me with your link, I'd gladly look though your site for you.

Well your terms have good conection with Yahoo's UK search engines. That is the reason you got high posistion on UK results. You have to work hard for Yahoo main search engine.
