Bing is still behind Google and Yahoo, but my stats have shown a lot of traffic coming from this new search engine. Any source of traffic is good news, but it is particularly good when a newbie search engine is among those bringing people my way. What's more, Bing is enjoyable to use and not some failed search engine like Cuil.
I definitely think Microsoft has made some significant improvements to their search results. I personally like Bing search better than Yahoo - more relevant results. If Yahoo didn't have email or news article, they'd be number 3 for search. Here's my latest blog post regarding the topic: http://www.liveambitions.com/google/search-engine-wars/
Very Unprofessional Search Page people feels comfortable with Simple White Page Search. And They are Added Background Picture Its all Hype.. Google is Still NO1
Google doesn't have to worry about either Yahoo or Bing. However, it is good to see that Microsoft has a relevant player in the mix, a search engine that returns decent results while sending good traffic our way.
I think Microsoft is going to license Wolfram|Alpha. Wolfram|Alpha does not have a business plan on it's own. They just built it to license to other search engines. Eric
Completely agreed! If their branding campaign works, work out a deal with all the browsers, apart from firefox, to set bing as the default SE they could steal a lot of the market share from google.
This kind of article will appear when they are a new search engine. Eventhrough Microsoft are only expect to get 8% of the market, still far from yahoo which is about 18%
Must all the free coverages they have gotten in the recent day.. Look at all the big blogs linking in the recent weeks http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/search?p=http://www.bing.com&fr=sfp&bwm=i And the video feature is cool
If Bing ever becomes #1, i will give away all my sites for free This must be the most terrifying warning for the life of a webmaster
Remember we have this in writing so even 20 years from now it will be time to hand them over, I claim first.
