It's your Web. At Yahoo!, we want to make sure that it's the best and most customised experience it can be. That's why you can catch the latest scores from your favorite team, see the up-to-the-second news you need, get the financial information that's most important to you.and see advertising that's relevant to you.

How we customise your Yahoo! experience

  • We look at browsing activity, such as the types of content accessed, ads clicked on, and searches made. Based on this, we group certain interests and show matched ads. For example, for people who like to check out the football scores on Yahoo! Sports, we may show ads that focus on football-related products and services.
  • We offer this service across The Yahoo! Network, which includes Yahoo! sites and our display publishing partners.
  • Advertising is how we're able to offer the innovative, free services you've come to expect from Yahoo!. And as we continue to customise your Yahoo! experience, you may see ads that more closely reflect your interest.
