Hi,

My website is indexed by Google and I have some rankings too. I have noticed that Yahoo and Bing did not index my website though I submitted my websites to these engines.

Any idea, why?

I have sitemap of Google only with website, no sitemap for Bing/Yahoo. Is it a reason?

Thanks

    They have totally different algorithms, but usually if you're on Google, you should be in a pretty similar position on Yahoo and Bing.

    If its a new site, it might take longer to get picked up than it would on Google, so just be patient.

    If it's an old site, check Yahoo and Bing TOS to make sure you haven't broken any rules somehow which might have gotten you penalized.

      It is around 2 months old. Is there a way to speed up indexing? I have 3-4 backlinks with website too which are indexed by Google.

    And you are positive it is not indexed in Bing or is it just not ranking?
