Just have a few questions, I am new to all this and doing a lot of reading and learning a lot, but I am sure you experts can answer this easily for me. When I search on bing for my site it shows in the search uk but not if I search all, why is this? and how can I get it so it is found on all. Also the only search engines people seem to talk about are yahoo, google and bing, I guess these generate the most traffic but are there others that are linked to these that are worth listing with? Thanks
No these three are the main and you should mainly be interested in Google and Bing. Which is your site? regards, ASHISH THAKKAR
Google is where most of your traffic will come from. The others aren't useless but Google is awesome!
Google claims that they have 65% of the US search market. This may be true, but I doubt it. My website traffic stats consistently puts them at 80-85% of my related searches.
I don't think I am allowed to list my site here, I am on google but in relation to Bing I just do not understand why I would appear in the UK side of the search only and not the main search and how I could make that change. Maybe it will change over time but if I can influence it in any way then I will try.
My sites have problems with bing too but I don want to optimize it because google brings me huge amount of traffic!
What Google tries is to deliver best results and I think its quite write for a search engine to rank different websites for different regions otherwise we'll have a bunch of sites getting on top of the world.
I guess below reasons: 1.domain name contains .uk 2.using uk in main keywords 3.dominant uk in your site contents 4.get most backlinks from uk local sites(in many ways) Have a nice day,
