Yahoo! Clubs - circa 2000 [PIC]

Oh...the good 'ole days before Yahoo! merged clubs & groups and started arbitrarily deleting them.

Check out the stats we enjoyed back then...

Yahoo groups made me quite a few bucks, almost useless today though, you can still squeeze a buck or two but definately not what it used to be

at some point I used to make hundreds of groups a week, stuff them with keywords and make very good money out of them, then Yahoo started deleting them faster than I can create them ;)

remember the clubs too, they were the groups predecessors, no?

I too remember the good ol' days! It sure wasn't hard to build followings with yahoo group toplists, some solid content and an hour a day.

As a surfer, I loved Yahoo Groups back in the day.. then they limited the image file size to something ridiculous like 10kb and ruined the whole fucking concept in one fell swoop.

Yes and no. Good traffic that didn't convert worth a damn.

We saved the mailing list for EBF just days before Yahoo axed the group, though.

Under the leadership of Terry Semel, Yahoo fucked everything up.
