Yahoo, founded in 1994 by Jerry Yang and David Filo, is a pioneering internet company known for its web portal, search engine, and online services. Initially starting as a directory of websites, Yahoo quickly grew into one of the most visited internet platforms, offering email, news, sports, finance, and entertainment content. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, it became a dominant player in the tech industry, competing with companies like Google. Despite its early success, Yahoo faced challenges adapting to the evolving digital landscape and lost market share to emerging competitors. In 2017, Yahoo’s core internet business was acquired by Verizon, which later merged it with AOL to form Verizon Media. Today, Yahoo continues to provide digital content and services, maintaining a presence in email, news, and finance sectors.
