Yahoo Editorial Problems

Is it just me or is it really hard to get some listings approved these days?

Examples:

Broken site - well my site has been up all the time!

Duplicate - Yahoo claim that I have submitted a set of keywords 3 times in a couple of days. Why would I even do this? Errors on Yahoo's part more like...

Blocked site - means very dodgy content basically - this site is not in any way!

Insufficient content - a page about widgets with widgets in the heading and widgets in the content does not get approved for the widget keywords. I asked if this was automated or had a human review...answer human review! I mean how could someone miss this?!?

My message to Yahoo is this....sort out your editorial review policy and more people will come to you with their marketing money (sure there are many other issues to be resolved as well).

Getting listings approved seems to be very frustrating these days!

It’s not only you; even I'm finding difficulties in adding the listings. The KW appears in the pending listing & after sometime I can’t see that KW anywhere.

I've been having lots of problems lately. I just got off the phone with my account rep and he told me that we could only bid on the keywords if we used the exact search phrase in the title or description. The funny thing is that they exact same ads were approved for a number of other keywords. I might just resubmit them over and over again until they get reviewed by the right person.
