SEO’s seven most often asked questionsArchived blogs for the week of May 5, 2008 1427 - May 6, 2008 - 1.42 PM EST Jerry Yang not too popular right now... If he wants to remain CEO, Yahoo's Jerry Yang will have to show a viable turnaround strategy for the number two search company that would appease angry shareholders in light of Yahoo's refusal to accept Microsoft buyout bid.
