Interesting post from the Yahoo bulletin board: BTW, my company WAS a YHOO customer. We had very good results with a banner ad campaign. But YHOO sold us out. The words and phrases we used were taken over by a much bigger corporation. Somehow, another account exec simply bumped us off! So, we have to take our ad dollars elsewhere. Which points out a question of limits to YHOO growth. There's only so many hot words and pages to sell. They've been trying to segment the heck out of their site to solve that, but I just don't think people hit those other sub pages.
