Yahoo!'s Editorial Approach to Search
Yahoo! believes that a hybrid of human review and mathematics works better than just math alone. Sites included in the Yahoo! Directory or in the Yahoo! Search Submit program are given an editorial review. Yahoo! also has their editors review portions of the web. It is believed that sites that receive a review may be given a ranking boost. Yahoo! grants 501(c) tax-exempt organizations and many educational websites free inclusion into the free side of their Content Acquisition Program.
