Is it too early to start figuring out BING's algorithm??

[champion510]

As of last week, we all know that yahoo will use bing as their search engines.

Do we know how different bing's algorithm will be structured?

Any has any pointers on this , that'll be helpful.

Content, backlinks, titles, what matters? everything?

too early..unless bing kept d algorithm ready(full of optimism for this deal).. biong is incorporating yahoo search technologies in its search...so back links will be important i guess..

too early to contemplate.. i thnk itll be months before BING perfects its algorithm..

When I heard that Yahoo search engine will now be powered by Bing, it seems it will be a big problem for us SEO to rank in both the two SEs (especially if you have a cse like mine that I didn't rank at Bing right now)

Im sure it will be a mix of the two so everything that was important before will still be important

Oh!! I was never aware with this.. I never expected this... Is it true?

My site is the 2nd on bing and 4 th on yahoo, that makes me believe their rankings algorithms are somewhat simular.

All,
Thank you for all the good feedback! :) we'll wait until bing really picks up some momentum..

they will probably make up a mix of both bing and yahoo, even if you rank well in bing i dont think it is guearanteed that you will rank good in yahoo.

[kittuk]

but if both will use the same algo..shouldnt d ranking be d same in yahoo & bing..vl have2 wait n watch

I have heard that Bing will integrate yahoo's search technology into its platform. I don't know what it means. So even though in the future yahoo search results are powered by Bing, I am not sure the algorithm will stay the same as today.

The algorithm of bing is very strange.

[MadIony]

The strangest thing is that my sites rank better in Bing than in Google.1st page for long tail word in Bing and in G only the 3rd page :|.I really don't know why as i'm following the regular steps for SEO and backlinking

I don't think anyone ever really completely "figures out" the algorithm, as they are ever-changing. But just try out some different things and see what gets the best results! Good luck.
