SEO - Bing.com

As Google goes through the current process of flipping the “caffeine” index over to the main data server center eventually, Bing.com has been moving along quickly with a new index that seems to be capturing ground for allot of sites that were having problems getting indexed in MSN before.

Targeting SEO for Bing.com has slightly changed over the older MSN style of indexing and has proven affective for web sites releasing relevant, theme, and original content. Depending on a company’s demographic target, there still seems to be a focus in Bing that is geared towards the financial area. Strong SEO optimization in many finance vertical still delivers conversions. Bing.com has the largest hurdle of trying to steal back a bit of market share that Google still holds on to.

As we know, each of the three main search engines, Google, Yahoo and Bing all deal with separate algorithms when it comes to indexing web sites. SEO for Bing.com still shows that the weight of indexing still fails in favor of on page factors as opposed to Google dealing allot more in off page factors

As Bing develops further, a proper SEO approach to this new index would be evaluating allot of competitors currently listed in key phrases that you would want to target. Effective competitive analysis with the Bing database will tell an SEO professional exactly the first steps to be under taken when targeting top positioning
