Yahoo Slurp no index

MSN has treated us well so far with many first page listings.
Google is average with just a few, but they are improving.

Now, the pig in the race is Yahoo.

Slurp visits often and hits 400+ pages. But on Yahoo, it only has indexed our home page. What could I be doing wrong?

Thanks!
Mike

Nothing, you will need to pay in order to get all pages displayed. It also depends on your pages, try searching for URL,'s

lol. You certainly do NOT need to pay to have all your URLs indexed by Y!. If I remember correctly though, it may take a month or two for new sites to start to appear in Y!'s index. I would just give it time. The main thing is that slurp is visiting your pages. Just be patient.
Also after a quick look at your site, your navigation links are not search engine friendly (Girl Infact, Toddler etc.). Spiders might have a tough time following them. You should try to convert those to text links via CSS.
Also, your product links are of the form "product_detail.asp?Product_ID=508," which are again not SE friendly. Search engines are getting better at picking up these dynamic URLs, but you might want to look into mod_rewrite, or rethink your linking scheme to make those pages more indexable.

Yahoo does a major index update quarterly. Just be patient.
