Dead of overture keyword suggestion tool?

[gemsergio]

I have been upgraded to the new yahoo sponsored search and keyword suggestion tool its not in place anymore.
It has been replaced like a google adword style tool.
When the switch will be completed I fear that the overture tools will be over...

actually, for the few last months OVT is updated very irregularly. it seems they simply don't care about it anymore. i posted a few threads here saying that smth is wrong OVT and nobody really replied. oh well, now it makes total sense. i guess looking for new traffic domains will become very hard if possible at all. this is really bad news for people with small traffic portfolios as they will find it hard to expand. i think the prices for traffic domains will rise after the changes take place.

That sucks.

I always thought the overture results would be maintained because they help advertisers pick their keywords. Domaining was kind of a side benefit. SEO as well.

I dont think that yahoo wants to harm domainers on purpose... maybe they just think that OVT is outdated and smth better has to be introduced.

What's the betting they offer a paid service....

WordTracker I guess will get more usage and maybe become the choice of domainers
