Yahoo! uses the Bing search engine. So Bing and Yahoo! both work on Bing’s Search, leaving Yahoo more like a web portal than a full-fledged search engine.
Yahoo! just like Bing
For many years now, Yahoo search has been powered by Bing, meaning that at least 51% of Yahoo’s searches are relying on Bing’s index and ranking algorithm. If you run a few test searches yourself, you’ll see that the search results are very similar in Yahoo and Bing, which means optimizing for one will also work for the other.
