I have generated a google sitemap, using an online tool, submitted it w/webmaster tools in both google and yahoo. I update it regularly, usually every week or 2 weeks at most, or whenever I've added a number of new pages. Did this over 6 months ago for google, about 2 months ago for yahoo.

My site comes up high in certain searches on BOTH Yahoo and google, it is there.

HOWEVER - looking at my stats, (I use awstats) I see TONS of incoming links from Google - both for searches and images BUT virtually NOTHING from YAHOO (or any other search engine for that matter).

WHY???

How come so much Google traffic - but - virtually nothing from anywhere else?

My site DOES come up in other search sites - just no traffic from them.

Any thoughts? Ideas? What am I possibly doing wrong??

Could be a few things...such as:

1) marketshare (The Google is still the monster on the block)
2) not picked up on the right phrases
3) ____________ a number of other things
