I dont know but for the sake of his question from just doing different things and observing how the search results change and looking at what websites rank highest and why i.e. checking backlinks, indexed pages, and the content of the site itself.
Id would agree about google and the anchor text thing. But again what you explained was still about incoming links. What i said was googles main factor was incomming links, granted i didnt explain myself, but googles results are swayed mostly by links, regardless if they are comming from a few quality sites or alot of junk sites. You mentioned "GoogleBombing", this is a prime example of the emphasis on incoming links and search results.
On the other hand i feel with yahoo you dont need as many incomming links to your site to rank well, not to say you dont need them and they dont help but you dont need as many (of any kind). I think a site with more keyword rich content, with a title and description relevant to the content plays more of a factor.
For example:
As "keyword anchor text links" are to google as "content i.e ( the meshing of the titles, description and keyword use throughout the content)" is to yahoo
For this reason i think it is easier to get a blog listed higher in yahoo than google, not to say its hard or isnt done in google but its easier in yahoo. And the result of him being listed higher i.e. the first page in yahoo instead of the 3 rd page in google could have resulted in more traffic from yahoo since he was on the first page.
I dont know the situation with his listings but that would be my guess in this situation. Not saying that google doesnt produce more traffic but he could be receiving more from yahoo because he is closer to the first page and more likely further back in google and thats why hes receiving less.
So i would say yes yahoo is more blog friendly over time in my opinion.
