Bing traffic?

Ranking in bing supposed to be easier but my sites don't rank well in bing,some sites that r number one in google ..no where to be found in bing.

I have a few sites which have ranked 1st position in bing when i have actually been aiming for google. The one thing i do notice is that the volume is a lot lower than from google.

I have focused on Google for ranking, but I never can seem to figure out a pattern for Bing on how they rank sites. Theoretically it should all be similar, but I have had sites that rank in the top three positions in Google and are nowhere to be found in Bing. I know it takes much longer for Bing to recognize newer sites.

No idea about Bing or Yahoo myself and was slightly surprised to see my sites in such good positions on those SE.

Definitely Bing and yahoo generates good amount of traffic. I was ranking for certain keyword in Google on page first but suddenly all ranking disappear. Right now i am getting more traffic from yahoo and Bing as compare to Google.

I have a site that ranks better on both Bing & Yahoo than on Google but the amount of traffic is still negligible. Like 10% of the traffic Google brings in.

As such, there are no different techniques for bing optimization or any other search engine optimization. If your website is well optimized and does not employing any unethical technique, you can rank well in other search engines as well.

All you need to do is keep yourself update with upcoming trends and frequent algorithm changes. And, as far as traffic is concerned, each and every source matters.. whether its search engine or social media website.

Hi Faceblogger

It's always worth looking how many searches your keyword gets in bing. I have found that for some niches you can actually get more traffic through bing.

I used to target just bing and Yahoo in my early days of internet marketing because it was generally a lot easyier and faster to do.

You need to add up the keywords and searches and see what the difference is between the two. I personally find that it's hard to rank high on all 3 as bing uses a slightly different ranking system as compared to Google.

Doesn't look like there's a straight answer to any of this. But I'd imagine that it would be so much more effective ranking up on google than on Bing. People resort to google much more than bing.

It's definitely a recommended strategy to consider optimizing websites for Bing as well because Yahoo plus MSN are two popular portals which are still getting accessed by millions of people and potential customers on a daily basis. Although Google might send more visitors than those two engines in most cases and in plenty of niches, but as you have experienced, trying to improve rankings of websites on Bing too can definitely help websites having better traffic shares.

A lot of shopping portals which are at the top of Bing generate lots of sales everyday and their profit shares too could be very great. It is recommended to improve organic ranks of websites on Google, Yahoo and Bing because even reaching the first spot on Google but missing high positions on the other two would be equal to losing traffic on a daily basis. Major sites which are accessed by international communities can definitely help having more visitors and Bing is one of them.

And... bing traffic converts much better than google traffic according to most of the affiliates.
