Anyone here focusing exclusively on Bing for SEO purposes?

Just wondering if anyone here exclusively focuses on Bing for SEO purposes? My experience has usually been that if I am doing well in Google, things are usually going well in Bing for the same site/keyword(s). But not always. It got me wondering if there are actually SEO's who throw everything they've got at ranking in Bing and let the chips fall where they may in Google.

I doubt anyone would abandon Google entirely!

However, I have been working on SEO for Bing, at the same time as Google. Bing has a number of different ways of assessing the relevance of a site, but applying these methods for both search engines doesn't pose a proble.

As you'll see from my signature, my own website is ranked #1 on both Google and Bing, proving that it's quite possible to optimise for both at the same time.
