Hey guys, I got a query about Bing.

My site gets traffic from google. And a good amount normally. I'm yet to verify my Bing webmaster tools account. Have I been missing out on traffic from there too?!

What's your traffic like from Bing compared to your google traffic?

Thanks guys.

    Google is always the Main Player. But Extra traffic never hurt anyone.
    You have nothing to lose, But IMO don't expect huge Results like Google Brings.

    Bing is pretty much non existent for my website, something like 3%, I heard it should be more like 10%...someone else is obviously getting my other 7%.

    I am verified, original, spam free, fast loading, and even have a pre-paid Bing Advertising account. 100k natural backlinks, five years old, and still no love. Yahoo works better for me, and of course Google is king.

    Bing webmaster tools aren't bad though, you should check them out.

      Ah that sucks man! I guess I should get on it as a few extra visitors wouldn't hurt. I'm also curious, if you or anyone else knows - if my rankings are good on google does that mean they could be also good on bing?

    Depends what is Defined as Success. Bing probably accounts for less than 1% Of all the sites i own, But im sure ive made one sales, Or a few Cents from ads from the Visitors.

      Any reason y? Do you think their spiders are less active in comparison to google? I thought bing was huge (obviously not as much as G but u know..)
