    How does Yahoo Search define spam?

    Yahoo Search defines spam as:

    Some pages are created deliberately to trick the search engine into offering inappropriate, redundant or poor-quality search results. This is often called "spam."


    Can you give some examples of types of pages or activities on a site that might be considered spam by Yahoo's definition?

    Search for some c# program codes. Yahoo search leads to sites which have similar subject and it is searched on a site, with 0 results. Basically those sites create pages dynamically, based on search query.

    That sounds a lot like Google's definition of spam.

    Google also classifies pages filled with endless lists of phone numbers as spam. These pages don't really serve a purpose
