SInce Bing is relatively new, I am wondering what has been the expereince of others with Bing vs Google vs Yahoo SERP rankings. I have several sites , many in the same niche. What I have noticed so far with Bing is that my older sites with no real backlinking are ranking much higher then my relatively new (4 years old) web site which has MANY MANY backlinks and ranks high in Google for same keywords used in this comparative analysis.

???

    And, yes, at this time Bing does seem to place more weight on domain age and direct keyword matching than Google and Yahoo do.

      I've never had the same luck with Yahoo either as I do with Google..seems they both don;t put as much weight on backlinking as Google

    some things i have noticed in the Bing SERP:
    1.sandbox period does not exist,
    2.when it comes to individual page or an entire site,Bing seems to give more weight to an entire site in the SERP rather than to a single page,
    3.subdomains are not ranked higher.

    This is just what i observed in some of the niches.It may be wrong though.
