    Yahoo and google have different algoritms. And it is very digfficult to target on both.
    If you have few projects I think that better optinmize one for google and one for yahoo.

    Yahoo likes the on-page factors more and your content. Try to have backlinks at other sites doing good in yahoo rankings as this will help as well.

    I agree and it can be quite a pain in the butt to get high ranks on both engines. Sometimes its like Google and Yahoo! run complete opposite algorithms. I would suggest focusing on Google and see what else you can do with Yahoo!

    Focus on title keyword targeting, along with image/text anchoring your keywords, plus getting larger relevant websites to link to you is a good start.

    The following seems to help a bit in some circumstances:

    #1 Create a blog.. a free one with blogspot.com is a nice way to get the pages indexed quickly

    #2 Create a small forum... use free software or vBulletin to get noticed quickly

    #4 Create a sitemap and submit to Yahoo! every so often

    #5 If you have some dough laying around.. pay for their Directory Service.

    #6 If you want to spend $20/mo for marketing.. pay a company such as IneedHits.com and have them submit your website to 3 relevant directories per month.

    The idea behind #1 and #2 is trying to get more focus on other pages besides your Homepage. Try to get attention to more than just one page. A lot of people can rank high on their Homepage, but have nothing come up with the rest of their pages. The more pages you have showing up... the better.
