SEO For Bing

Written by Abhimanyu – Original Post Is Here.

so with the launch of Bing (but it is not google called by many MS fanboys),Microsoft has gained Search market share by 2% in no time. People have reported and responded well to bing though it still has to go a long way to put any kind of challenge to Google.

Since Bing is just MSN with new name, the seo techniques for Bing will remain same as for MSN. The new content still ranks well in Bing just like msn. Here are few tips on SEO for Bing -

1. Submit your sites to Bing to here

2. Bing likes fresh content, so feed it as much as you can.

3. Most of the ranking parameters are just like for other search engines. I have noticed that new content do not stay that longer in bing as earlier it used to be.

4. Keyword rich domains rank very easily in bing just like msn so if you have a site like keyword1-keyword2.com, you can rank easily for “keyword 1 keyword2″ in bing search engine.

5. You can submit your sitemap to Bing from webmater tools here

6. It seems bing is giving lot of weightage to age of domain as I am seeing lot of sites with strong backlinks and old age ranking very high. Anyway you can’t do much about such factors so better leave it and focus on quality of content.

7. Bing seems to be giving lot of weightage to on page seo factors too so you may like to optimize title, keyword, description etc but don’t over do it and certainly do not prioritize it as you can easily trigger search engine filters due to this.
