Yahoo and MSN Combining Search Engine Forces
I read on a blog that Yahoo and Bing will be combining forces against Google and it will be announced sometime this week. From a SEO and PPC perspective, I wonder what changes and challenges this union can present to internet marketers. What do you think?

I am heard about it ..basically microsoft and yahoo both are going for an agreement according to that paid result services for both search engine will be combined ...
"it is something like that you are able to select certain keywords for the PPC for both search engines simultaneously." This is my personal view... But did not heard anything regarding organic search results

This is either really good for me, or really bad for me. Yahoo finds and recognizes a lot of my backlinks, but MSN doesn't recognize any. hmmmmm.....

So now it is official. I wonder if Google will team up with a smaller search engine or even a semantic one and fight against Bing/Yahoo. Who knows, time will tell..

I for one applaud the new deal. I also see it as a good move for both Yahoo and MSN. Over the last few weeks Bing has been providing lots more traffic than Yahoo for all the sites I monitor. It's a great search engine. It will level the playing field out there a bit.

Go Bill! I knew you could pull it off.
This ten year search merger is a good thing for all humans, except the Adsense swindlers of course.
