Bing Showing As Referrer?

    On Google Analytics, hits from Bing Web Search are showing as a site referrer rather than a search engine hit, don't know if this is meant to be this way, don't know why Microsoft would set it that way.

    Any ideas and are you experiencing the same?

    Yes, its the same on my Bluehost account - visitors from Bing are showing as visits from an 'external site' rather than a search engine. No idea why :confused:
