Can anyone share insights on what factors to consider when trying to rank well on the new microsoft Bing search engine?
I know the commen SEO tips well, but m not in success on Bing. But I read many article says , Bing giving more weigh on on page optimization and content
Goog read here : Bing Optimization Summary: Backlinks are of less importance. If you compare the first 10 results in Bing and Google, it is noticeable that all equal, the winners in Bing have less backlinks than the winners in Google. It is unclear if nofollow matters with Bing. Inbound anchor text matters more. The quantity of quality inbound links might be of less importance for Bing but the anchor text certainly matters more. Actually, since anchor text is one of the measurements of the quality of inbound links, it isn't much different. Get quality anchor text and you will do well in both Bing and Google. Link spamming won't do much for you on Bing. Since the quantity of backinks (even if they are of supreme quality) seems to be of less importance to Bing, link spamming will be even less effective than with Google. Onpage factors matter more than with Google. This is one of the most controversial points. Many SEO experts disagree but many also think that onpage factors matter more with Bing than with Google. Still, it has nothing to do with the 90s, when onpage factors were definitive. Bing pays more attention to the authority of the site. If this is true, this is bad news for bloggers and small sites because it means that search results are distorted in favor of older sites and/or sites of authoritative organizations. Age of domain is also very important with Bing – even more than with Google. PR matters less. When you perform a search for a competitive keyword and you see a couple of PR2 or even PR1 sites among the top 10 results, this might make you wonder. On Google this is hardly possible but on Bing it looks quite normal. Fresh content matters less. Bing looks a bit conservative – or maybe it just can't index sites that quickly – but it seems that fresh content is not so vital as with Google. This is related to the age of domain specifics and as a result you will see ancient pages rank high (but these ancient pages are relevant to the search query). Bing is more Flash-friendly. Optimizing a Flash site for Google is a bit of a SEO nightmare. It is too early to say but it looks like Bing is more Flash-friendly, which is good news to all sites where Flash is (still) heavily employed.
just submit your url on bing. Its work link google so you don't need to do more work. Just follow some seo guideline.
Some of the factors that Bing take into consideration are: - Give priority on well-established site which is good in terms of rankings - Original content matters - Rich and unique title is important

I rank really poorly on Bing for my search terms yet I rank highly on google. I have good content and my site is 9 years old. I've followed pretty much all the guidelines with very little success so far... the only thing I noticed is that it seems to really like keyword rich URLs...
Thanks for the tips. I've been working hard on making my sites rank in bing but they do well in Google and Yahoo.
SEOKungFu, this is a very good advice! I'm always optimizing my website for Google, and get traffic from yahoo and bing as well. I know that, their algoritm is different, but I got much more traffic from G.
Actually, no need to thank me, it was from the source I posted ( the link is on top ). Anyway, I'll try to compensate now with sharing some experience. It turned out in the experiment I had, not intentionally though, that bing somehow pays really good attention to images. So, in my case, I had a small site, not even indexed in bing, but was receiving little traffic for some competitive phrases, that were found in the image url, title and anchor text. And these images were somewhere on top amongst others for the hard phrase. So the personal advice is run for the images
When you do SEO in Bing try to consider this; - Bing pays more attention to keyword stuffing. - Bing pays more attention to age of site. - Bing pays more attention to age of backlinks or links. - Bing did not see inner pages.
Hello , This is the one of the best tips. The best and most update Bing SEO tips and articles on the internet.
Thank you for the Bing tips. I have a blog which has decent traffic from google but Bing is not providing any traffic but my website is getting traffic from Bing. Now I understand the reason.
The best thing about Bing is that it has a better user interface and gives you a feel of FRESHNESS every single day. Instead of focusing your optimization entirely on Google, one must concentrate on gaining rankings on other search engines including Bing and Yahoo.
Bing, Google and Yahoo have different algorithm as their focusing to, one has a different way of crawling a particular page, optimizing is just a factor that you can do in having a good rank in different search engine.
i tried myself to optimize my blog for Bing but i'm not successful on it. for me bing pays more attention to the authority of the site, relevancy , and i guess content also.
Bing focus on page optimization to rank well.To rank well for keywords in bing follow these steps Target no more than two keywords per page Use unique <title> tags on each page Use unique <meta> description tags on each page Use H1 tags Create content for your human visitors, not the Bing web crawler
Meanwhile it seems the crawler is getting better and the indexation - more frequently updated ( Bing ), as of observation - stay tuned.
