Bing vs Google

Discussion in 'Bing' started by ranapratap82thakur, Feb 21, 2012.

    Hello Friends,
    Could you please let me know how optimizing a website for Bing is different from optimizing a website in Google. Are the algorithms different or both have same algorithms. If algorithms are different then how could you manage to satisfy both of the search engines in a certain period in time? Examples will be appreciated.

    Thanks a lot

    Do not try to satisfy the search engines. Satisfy the visitors (by providing value), the search engines will satisfy you (by increasing rank).

    Algorithms might be different. But the main goal of any search engine is to get people use them. We people use that search engine which provides the best results for our search keywords.

    So give your visitors what they want, the search engines will give you what you want.

    Of course Google is the best of all search engines because of the large user base. I think you haven't understood OP question - it is not about which is best, it is about "how optimizing a website for Bing is different from optimizing a website in Google".

    No search engines can beat Google, they dominate almost the whole market, all webmasters use them over any other as it provides the most organic traffic.

    I am truly in agreement with Imadmirer .. Impress your visitors rather than automated bots of search engines ... once you have a loyal base of visitos then search engines would automatically take your site into consideration...

    That sounds cheesy, but the truth is that search engines give a crap about your visitors feelings simply because they can't monitor them. I've seen tons of junk, crappy and spammy websites ranking well on search engines queries, why? because the owner developed a successfull backlinking campaign (off-site SEO) and have good SEO structure on his website (on-site SEO).

    Satisfying visitors is your No. 1 priority but SEO is useful. You should focus on Google though- there is no point in changing your SEO for Bing.

    Bing can be great... I've run anywhere from a few hundred to a
    few thousand per day through them with an excellent return.

    The thing is... they are really starting to crack down more like
    Adwords recently.

    I was talking to a manager at Bing the other day and she told me
    word for word "we are cracking down on ALL affiliate websites"

    Thanks for your valuable time and a marvelous answer. But actually my point was not about satisfying visitor or search engines. Obviously it is visitors that should be given value more than anything else. Still there is a "Mechanical Turk" which we call Algorithm and every website do optimize their website howsoever relevant and appealing is it from user perspective. My question is about that realm of search engines and if you were to optimize your website both search engines what will be your strategy. How will you manage a balance between these two. For instance Google gives value to the keywords in the body of the content while Bing favors having keywords on the Title, 1st and last paragraphs. Now if you were to optimize the content then how will you maintain a balance.

    It is not about comparing search engines rather it is about how to optimize both the search engines at a same time. Still thanks a lot you answered my question. definitely Google is the big Boss and we all are fond of Google still we should n't forget that Bing and yahoo are have captured almost 30% of total market share. As a marketer 30% matters much. If your turnover is 1billion then could you recognize how big will be the 30% figure.

    Yes, you are right, 30% traffic matters a lot.

    I do on-page SEO, and do not optimize specifically for google or bing.

    Let us suppose if there are specific optimization rules for each search engine. Then its impossible to satisfy all the search engines. And by trying to satisfy search engines we may end up stuffing keywords etc, and as a result the quality suffers. If quality reduces in the site content, search engines do not give higher ranking.

    Guys, Please read the original question. Its not about which search engine is the best.

    If anyone wants to share their knowledge on how differently they optimize pages for Bing, it will be greatly appreciated.
