If your ranking one in Yahoo then be very happy. Because it means your ranking about the same in Bing...remember yahoo draws its search results from Bing. That means your ranking 1 for your terms in two search engines that control around %30 of search engine traffic in the United States. That is big bucks there sending your way every way. So, yes its important.
But it may be about to get a whole lot better....Baidu the Chinese search engine is about to move big time into the United States Market and this is a search engine with billions of dollars behind it...and guess what, their going to be using Bing search results...that means more number 1 positions in another search engine for you....and it gets better because Bing is a part owner of facebook and all the leaks coming out of facebook indicate they will be launching their own search engine drawing on Bing results....so thats 750 million users.
Things are changing in the search engine market and right now I would would rather have top position in Bing over google. Google is losing market share in every fucking country in the world, there under all sorts of Government enqiures, people hate the fuckers and webmasters are looking for payback after Panda.
Expect big changes in search engine market share over the next 3 years.
