One of the reasons we all 'do a Google'

You have to wonder at the thinking behind whoever is actually running Yahoo.

Look at this. We’re getting bucketloads of traffic — BUCKETLOADS — from o2 customers hunting for the url http://www.o2.co.uk/surprises.

TONS of them are typing in: o2.co.uk/surprises

And they’re getting a surprise.

They’re getting two results from Yahoo: An article on mobiles2day.com and our piece here.

You’d think that the search engine would have the balls and the brains to actually suggest the website o2.co.uk as a possible alternative.

Searching for o2.co.uk is a dead giveaway…

This is why I use Google and only Google. I don’t want to waste time arsing around.

Bit of a shame for the all the o2 customers who made the mistake of using Yahoo. Anyway, WE linked to o2.co.uk. So eventually the customers get there.

Here’s the rubbish Yahoo spouts out when you search for o2.co.uk/surprises:

And the same term search in Google?

First, second, third, fourth, fifth link. And a nice little sponsored link too.

Dear me.
