    The Santa SmackDown in Search: You Better Watch Out, You Better Not Cr
    

    The holiday season is chock full of characters, stories and traditions - all of which see their fair share of search activity. In fact, we hear there's a bit of competition among Santa's cast and crew for the top billing in search. To relieve a bit of pressure (December is a stressful time of year for these guys), Santa Claus returned to the frozen stage this month to oversee some one-on-one action in the Search Smackdown. He got out his list and set up some Yuletide matches in the Buzz Arena...and man, will the reindeer fur fly.

    Based on this season's search data, we've got the Search odds right here, and a few highlights from their past matches. All we gotta say is, when Jack "The Cannibal" Frost comes nipping at your nose, you better not cry, you better watch out.

    Smack Down	Red Corner	Green Corner	And the Buzz Goes To...	Odds
    Vengeance	Rudolph "Red-Nosed" Reindeer	Dasher and Dancer et al	Vengeance is sweet. The reject reindeer outshined the tag team by way more than a nose, although that was too bad about Grandma getting in the way.	2:1 Rudolph
    Snowblind	Jack "The Cannibal" Frost	Frosty the Snowman	Frosty proved too slippery for the nimble Jack, although he better watch his addiction to that corn-cob pipe.	9:1 Frosty
    Extreme Fighting	Blister the Heat Miser	Snow Miser aka Mr. Icicle	Mr. Icicle may have the cooler ragtime routine, but his hotheaded half-brother burns him in Buzz by nine-fold. Now we know the reason behind global warming.	11:1 Heat Miser
    Buzz Office Rumble	"Home Alone"	"A Christmas Story"	The McAllister kid can lay a mean booby trap, but all the blow torches in the basement can't match a Red Ryder -- plus that underhanded tongue-on-flagpole trick should freeze any loner in his tracks.	6:1 Christmas Story
    The Unforgiven	Grinch	Scrooge	A face-off for the ages: the cave-dweller with the super-shrunken heart against that squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous, old sinner. Ah, but that Broadway endorsement clinched the Buzz for the Grinch.	6:1 Grinch

    Yahoo! Search Support for X-Robots-Tag Directive to Simplify Webmaster
    

    Today we're announcing support for tags that give webmasters even more flexibility over which pages and documents are crawled and indexed by Yahoo! Search. Specifically, we're extending our support of page level exclusion tags -- NOINDEX, NOARCHIVE, NOSNIPPET, NOFOLLOW -- to provide additional control for archiving and summarization of ANY file type. Previously, these page level tags could only be expressed within html pages through the META directive (for e.g. ), but based on feedback from our webmasters, Yahoo! now enables these tags to be expressed through X-Robots-Tag directive in the http header, giving webmasters the flexibility to achieve exclusions on PDF, Word documents, PowerPoint, video, and other file types, including html files, and increasing their coverage through a simplified process. Additionally, webmasters no longer need access to html templates in order to express exclusions for html files. To take advantage of this feature, simply add the following page level tags to the X-Robots-Tag directive in the HTTP Header. Here are a few examples:

    • X-Robots-Tag: NOINDEX -- If you don't want to show the URL in the Yahoo! Search results.

      Note: We'll still need to crawl the page to see and apply the tag, so if you don't wish to have the page crawled, use robots disallow on robots.txt.

    • X-Robots-Tag: NOARCHIVE -- If you don't want to display cache link in the search results page.
    • X-Robots-Tag: NOSNIPPET -- If you don't want to display summary in the search results page.
    • X-Robots-Tag: NOFOLLOW -- If you don't want Yahoo! to crawl links in the page.

    Along with this change, we'll be rolling out additional changes to our crawling, indexing and ranking algorithms over the next few days. We expect the update will be completed early next week, but you may see some changes in ranking as well as some shuffling of the pages in the index during this process.

    We're at SES in Chicago and WebmasterWorld's PubCon in Las Vegas, participating in a few different panels this week. Please find us if you have any questions or suggestions or drop us your feedback here.

    Sundance Searching
    While stars frolic in the snow of Sundance, I sit here in Sunnyvale and track the buzz filtering down from the mountains. The beloved film fest is always a search favorite, and this year is no exception. Searches on "Sundance"...
