YSM Editorial Sucks Worse than Death

I am hoping that someone at YSM comes across this. Yet again another barrier to YSM making more money with paid search and impeding the SEM workflow.

My task is simple. Update some URLs on Yahoo by adding a unique ID and the Yahoo {YSMADID} parameter.

Appending these to my URLS will not change any sort of mapping - this is strictly for my tracking. So when a submission like this is made why can't you scan the URL and figure out if the mapping will be changing or not.

If its just a situation like this where the URL mapping is not changing, just the tracking stuff, then you can push on through and save the poor editorial person a couple of hours. If you detect a change in mapping then you could put the listings through to editorial.

There solved.
