Yahoo Integrating Delicious Into SERPs

According to TechCrunch it appears Yahoo is integrating Delicious vote counts into the search results.

Delicious Integrated Into Yahoo Search Results

I personally feel this is a great idea. Adding that human rating factor can only help searchers decide what are the most relevant results to click. This also adds more reason for the online marketer to include a social media component in their package for clients. I wonder if vote counts are effecting where pages appear int eh results. From just looking at early results you would think no because you are seeing some pages with no votes easily out ranking pages with 100s of votes.

Yahoo bought Delicious back in late 2005 and some wondered what (if anything) they were going to do with it.

Remember they are just testing this and some Yahoo searchers are not seeing this at all.

Thanks for the tip, I think. Looks like one more widget to put on the page!

In your opinion, what do you think the impact of social sites will be?
I guess I’m old fashioned, but I don’t live my life in this box. I work here, but I don’t live here! But then, I don’t watch reality TV either.

Well considering Google itself is the only big thing “regular” people really directly involve themselves with. Regular people meaning most people that live outside of the online marketing bubble. I don’t think social media will directly effect them. It is really how social media will help shape the SERPs on these engines everyone uses, everyday.

Hmmm… I suppose you’re right.

Thanks
