Actually, our biggest source of traffic used to be Yahoo!; however, they've recently changed the format of their results. It used to be you'd search for, say, "web hosting," and you'd get a list of categories. You'd click on a category that most fit what you were looking for, and pick a site from there. Now they've got it so that it gives an abbreviated category list, and then lists website on the first search-results page. Since they've done that, our traffic from them has gone down the toilet. The chosen few who are on that first page (the "1 - 20 of 8111") must be in hog heaven though.
