Yahoo Japan will soon be powered by Google

Yahoo and Google have come to the agreement on the partnership in Japanese market. It was officially announced on each blog on July 27th. While the effective date is yet to be decided, according to the announcements, we can expect below changes.

1. Yahoo’s organic search will be powered by Google, though each site would have a room to make the results their own. (You won’t get exactly the same results from them.)
2. Yahoo will adopt Google’s PPC platform for their PPC services. The accounts will be handled separately.
3. Yahoo will feed content data from Yahoo shopping, Q&A, etc. to Google for their blended search results.

See Yahoo’s official blog, Google’s official blog, and my post on the topic.
