Yahoo is *different* to other search engines. They visit every site that
applies for a link and include only those sites which appeal to the
particular reviewer AND which meet the Yahoo listing criteria. Obviously
there aren't very many sites discussing the Apple IIGS that match Yahoo's
criteria. 

A daft question, Louis, but is your site listed at Yahoo. If not, have a
look at some of the web sites that discuss how to get a good Yahoo listing
*before* you apply to Yahoo. BTW, would you like me to scan a copy of the
Guardian newspaper article that discussed your classroom?
