Website listing looks strange in...

When I search on Google (using the terms Jim's Painting Spring Hill TN), the top line of our website listing correctly reads Jim's Painting & Improvements.

However, when I search on Yahoo, the top line shows as Home [jimthepainterman.com]

The other results in Yahoo searches don't have this unappealing look. How do I get the Yahoo search result to look as nice as the Google search result? Or is there nothing I can do on my end about it?

I'm using VSD, in case that matters.

Melodie, Yahoo is listing each page of your site as a separate listing for example Home[jimthepainterman.com], Contact[jimthepainterman.com], & so on. What you need to do is to create a sitemap of your site and submit it to Yahoo so Yahoo will know how your site is arranged and how to display it. You can find free Yahoo sitemap generators on the net, but Coffeecup has a neat Sitemap Generator program that will do a better job in about 5 minutes, and best of all ... it is actually on sale now :) for only $9.00! You can find it here: http://www.coffeecup.com/sitemapper/
