Yahoo! Small Business has now back from using experimental Aabaco Small Business brand.

In early 2015, it was announced that Yahoo Small Business would be a part of a spin-off transaction of Yahoo!’s 40 billion shares in Chinese retailer, Alibaba.
The Yahoo Small Business product line was renamed Luminate, from Aabaco Small Business in preparation for the spin-off. In November 2015, Yahoo decided to no longer use the Luminate brand for its product line, and instead use Aabaco Small Business as the brand to more closely align with the then to-be parent company, Aabaco Holdings. In December 2015, Yahoo ultimately decided to postpone the spin-off transaction, with Aabaco Small Business remaining a part of Yahoo (Source wikipedia)
