Overture still displays results from March 2007 - Is this a sign of it's slow death?

[petrosc]

I just scanned a list of names, the same exact list that I have scanned the 16th of March.

I get the same exact results, and this is no coincidence, we are talking about thousands of names.

The strange part is, that I have also scanned a list that I previously scanned in April... the results differ from April's results.... so I believe that Yahoo has re-loaded the March results and left it there, without updating it. This may be one of the first signs of the slow death of ovt....

I still see january data

 

[petrosc]

oh.. it could be... maybe the results from March were actually january results

 

[dolansco]

it has been Jan results for a long time ( March results on UK ovt , i believe)

 

[tonyfloyd]

yeah..i've noticed that also....why no updates???

I thought this was common knowledge. It's not going to be updated any more. US OVT shows January data and others show March data. That's it.

Perhaps Yahoo realized it's inaccurate.

Been dead for a while now

I was able to scan March results before it reverted back to January.

Yahoo is rebranding overture and reorganizing the service. I think if you still want to see OVT type data, you will have to join up and be an advertiser. In Japan, OVT is still up and running but probably only a month or two of life left (if that).

Edit: Actually pm me if you want the tool I'm using. It gives 30-day ovt
