Bing runs Yahoo's search

When will Microsoft's Bing take over Yahoo's search functions? Are there any rumors or official deadlines?

 

Maybe it already has..,

 

Well i think the deal was finalized maybe they are working on it at the moment but its still not live

 

There is no official word or deadline on the merger but I guess the integration process would already be ON, in the back office!

Bing also shows Yahoo ads on their search. Now the deal has been done.

 

The deal is official, but there are some legal issues that have to be dealt with before the change in the results can actually take effect. Nobody knows the exact date when it will switch over. However, you might see some integration with advertisements in the meantime.

If you search for a simple word like "large" in both Yahoo and Bing, you will see a difference in the results and their order.

 

My site is to test the results from different search engines, and I just did some searches but bing and yahoo have different results.

 

I will be glad when they do ... yahoo.bot uses far too much bandwidth for the number of visits it sends and i assume when they start to show results from bing then yahoo.bot will go and just have to deal with msn.bot

 

You can change how often the yahoo bot visits with your sitemap, assuming you use one.

 

Yeah I too heard this. Me too waiting for same news.

 

well are yahoo crawlers still visiting ur sites ??

 

I think Yahoo accept the offer of Microsoft already they're merging is done.

 

i don't think so
