I have a site on google news and even though I cover a niche site, it seems like my articles do not bring much traffic anymore and I earn under 3 dollars a day now. I noticed that google will always put well established big corporations first, like the LA and NY times, or USA Today, even rival Yahoo on the front page even if their content is just a AP news release duplicate they do not get punished and still show above other websites.

Does Yahoo! news have place to submit your news site so they can publish articles up like google news?

Google has really crushed a lot of peoples traffic and ranking, not just news sites, but businesses too have lowered rankings, my friend thinks they do this so the businesses and web owners will pay for Adwords advertising, its almost like a sly way of making more money and forcing them to advertise.

Another person had a theory that because they lost so much money on Youtube partners who make a killing on adsense from their videos, they have to find ways to earn even more money.

I don't really have a clue and no one else will unless they work for them. But it;'s tough bringing my ranking back up again, because unique content doesn't seem to improve it, its like they just tell you that even though it doesn't really make your articles rank any higher.

Being in google news is AMAZING for traffic. Although i personally have not done it, I have a friend who uses it and if by chance you get on a mainpage you will get between 30k-40k hits on a news day. This happens once or twice every couple months for my friend

While I'm earning 2.00 a day or less with lengthy originally content.

Google new update is harmful for those who are performing spamming for their sites. But if you are white hat seo then you don't need to worry about it. Because this change kick out most of the spammer.

Because this change kick out most of the spammer.And thats what baffles me. I am not a spammer lol, My site only puts up like 2 or 3 articles a day or if there is more news on certain cars and automobiles coming out we put more out, all original well written we even go to car shows to get exclusive info yet we dont get ranked high anymore.

Still my rank is low. While there are sites just posting the same story on their site and getting ranked higher than me. Mainly the sites who are owned by big corps or bring in big money.

its not a fair thing going on.
