Bing Search Update? Crawl Changes?

Fetched: May 17th, 2012, 12:46pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing SEO

There is a single post at WebmasterWorld where a senior member is complaining that Bing has reduced the number of pages they have indexed of his site.

He said he had about 500,000 URLs URLs indexed and now he only has about 350,000 URLs indexed at Bing. This occurred around May 5th.

So I checked several of my sites at Bing Webmaster Tools and didn't notice a change in the index rate at all for any of my sites. In fact, here is a screen shot of the index rate for this site, as you can see, there was a little increase one day on May 3rd or so.

But when I looked at my traffic, impressions and clicks, there was a huge change - for the better - on May 7th or 8th:

I also noticed fluctuations in the crawl rate chart, but that seems normal - to be all over the place:

Have you noticed any significant changes at Bing recently?

I am thinking maybe the increase I am seeing is related to the Bing social integration or maybe not?

The last possible Bing update was in late March 2012 according to my records.

Bing Ties Facebook Into Search, Is It Too Much?

Fetched: May 11th, 2012, 8:27pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

I have to hand it to Microsoft, they are exploiting the one thing Google can't get their hands on fully, Facebook data and integration. Yes, Microsoft Bing has been integrating Facebook personalization into Bing search results for a while but yesterday, Bing went over the top with it.

Bing announced a new level of integration where you can interact with your Facebook friends directly in the Bing search results.

I am not going to go through the changes here, Danny does an outstanding job at Search Engine Land on the new Bing features and then comparing Bing vs Google on how they handle social integration into the search results.

Here is a quick video demo on the changes:

But will this last - I mean, is it too much? Are the search results useful or are they being overpowered by Facebook? Is it too confusing for users? Will they understand when to use search, when to use social and then how to use both at certain times?

Personally, I really don't see this version of Bing lasting more than a year. I hope I am wrong but I can't see this being easy for users to use.

Microsoft Shutting Down Bing 411 On June 1st

Fetched: May 11th, 2012, 8:27pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

I confirmed yesterday that Microsoft is closing down the Bing 411 service on June 1st.

Bing 411 was one of the last popular dial a search services left. Google discontinued GOOG 411 back in 2010 and now Bing is shutting their service.

If you try calling 1-800-BING-411, you will hear a recording telling you the service is going offline June 1st.

I have no clue how many people actually use the service, but I bet less and less every day.

With all these smart phones with embedded voice search native to the device (Google Voice Search & Apple Siri) there is less of a need to dial a phone number to get voice search.

Bing Goes With Clean & White Design

Fetched: May 4th, 2012, 3:14pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

Bing announced a major redesign to their search interface.

This time Bing took out all the clutter and went incredibly minimalistic with their design. There is white everywhere. They removed the left hand rail from the search results. They said the design adds "faster page-load times and improved relevance under the hood."

Here is the before and after:

Old Design:

New Design:

A WebmasterWorld thread is talking about the new design. Some people love it and some people feel this is no big deal, all they did was clean up stuff and remove images and flare.

Microsoft To Power Yahoo Search Ads In UK, France and Ireland Starting Wednesday

Fetched: April 16th, 2012, 8:21pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Microsoft Bing adCenter

Microsoft announced the UK, France and Ireland search ad transition from Yahoo Search Ads to Microsoft adCenter ads will begin this Wednesday and should be 100% completed by the end of this month.

Microsoft explained:

Next week, we begin to shift ad serving for Yahoo! Search over to Microsoft Advertising adCenter. This means that adCenter ads will gradually be displayed on Yahoo! Search result pages in the UK, France and Ireland. This process will begin as early as the 18th of April and is expected to conclude during the last week of the month when 100% of the Yahoo! traffic will be made available in adCenter and Yahoo! Search Marketing accounts will go in read-only mode.
As Yahoo! ad serving moves to adCenter, and your clicks and impressions in that account begin to increase, youâll see a corresponding decrease in clicks and impressions in your Yahoo! Search Marketing account. It is thus important to continue managing your campaigns across both platforms throughout this transition phase, in order to avoid missing out on any potential clicks. To help you prepare, I wanted to share the following guidance to assist you through this transition.

This transition has been happening throughout the various regions, first with the US in October 2010 and is still lingering on and on.

Bing Search API Now Pay For Access

Fetched: April 16th, 2012, 8:21pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

Microsoft announced that they will begin charging for access to the Bing Search API through the Windows Azure Marketplace.

Microsoft said the charges will start at approximately $40 (USD) per month for up to 20,000 queries each month. The pricing will likely go into affect in the next 3 to 6 months.

In the next several weeks, Microsoft will document the schedules for this transition and during that transition, Microsoft will encourage users to use the Bing Search API for free. Then at some point, Microsoft will start billing you for use.

If you are already using the Bing Search API, keep watch of the developer blog for updates. Those doing 3 to 4 million queries will likely hear directly from Microsoft.

SEOs and Webmasters are shocked Microsoft is going this route. They felt any upside people have to use Bing, keep it, especially for developers and early adopters.

Delays Expected For adCenter Bing Search Ad Approvals

Fetched: April 11th, 2012, 12:03pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Microsoft Bing adCenter

There is a thread at the Microsoft Advertising Forum where one advertiser is complaining about his ads not being approved in the adCenter console. The issue is not his but rather a delay in the ad approval system.

Ricky Poole, Microsoft adCenter representative, said:

Thanks for reaching out. We apologize for the delay, we have been experiencing some system delays in our approval system. I have gone in and approved your ads, and everything is now live. Please don't hesitate to let us know if you have any additional issues in the future.

The advertiser said their ads were in review for a week or so with no status update.

So if you have the same issue, post in the Microsoft Advertising Forum.

Bing Video Search Gets An Upgrade

Fetched: April 6th, 2012, 4:21am CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

A week ago, Bing announced some large upgrades to their video search engine at Bing Videos.

The major feature upgrades include:

Infinite Scroll

You can now quickly scroll through the video results like you would in Bing Image search. Bing will dynamically load more videos as you scroll. They call this Infinite scroll, something they came out with back in 2009 for their image search. Google then "copied" it a little bit later.

Larger Preview Thumbnails

In the search results, when you see a video, hovering over the video with your mouse will show a larger preview than Bing has shown before. Bing said "the videos also received updated treatments, such as 16x9 images, embedded video length time stamps, and icons to help you quickly navigate the results."

Bing Shopping Merchants: FTP URL Change

Fetched: April 4th, 2012, 1:55pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Microsoft Bing adCenter

Microsoft's Ricky Poole announced in the Microsoft Advertising Forums that if you are using the numeric FTP address to upload your feeds for Bing Shopping, you need to update it immediately to the normal address.

Ricky said the new FTP address is feeds.adcenter.microsoft.com and use that, not the numeric one.

Here are the full details as Ricky from Microsoft posted:

Whatâs changing?

IP Address-based FTP delivery of your feeds: If you are sending your feeds via FTP and you are sending via a numeric FTP address, you will have to change to the recommended text FTP address âfeeds.adcenter.microsoft.comâ

What is not impacted?

FTP uploads to feeds.adcenter.microsoft.com (non-numeric address) will not be impacted, other than intermittent delays of 2 hours or less. Simply retry your feed upload.

What do I need to do?

You donât need to do anything if you upload to feeds.adcenter.microsoft.com

If you use Shopping.com to send your feeds, you donât need to do anything. Both issues are being handled separately by Shopping.com.   If you would like to learn more about sending offers to Bing via Shopping.com, see our Getting Started page or contact merchantsupport@shopping.com for details.

If you use a numeric IP address to upload your feeds, you will have to update your upload scripts/jobs to the recommended setting of (without quotes) feeds.adcenter.microsoft.com

If you have a technical issue blocking this change, please contact Bing Shopping     Merchant Support.

If you see delays in your feed uploads: Please just retry your feed upload, with our apologies. This delay is temporary and will be resolved as soon as possible on or after 4/13.

Why this is happening: Here at Bing Shopping, we continue to make improvements to our processes and infrastructure. For a small number of merchants who use a numeric IP addresses to upload their feeds, one such change, a data center migration, will interfere with their upload scripts/jobs.

Still have questions?:

Bing (Yahoo) Search Update - March 2012?

Fetched: March 26th, 2012, 5:19pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing SEO

There is some chatter and discussion in the Bing and Yahoo Webmaster World forums that an update is happening or started happening a few days ago.

Senior members are taking notice and one said:

Looks to me in the areas I traverse Bing has had a recent update. It practically looks like if you are not a known brand you might have taken a licking. In some areas I look at they're overrun with keyword domains which seem to be the exception to the branding. The merging of so many variations of keywords also is slowing the long tail and giving particular advantage to the âbig boysâ. Also too many weak e-zine type sites saying nothing. Prior to this I thought Bing was improving via a healthy mix.

At first I thought maybe it was just a hiccup but then I saw additional comments from webmasters and then a thread on a change at Yahoo, which uses Bing's index. That post said:

As of roughly midnight yesterday my statistics from yahoo! tell me something has changed with my yahoo rankings, or just in general.

The issue with this Yahoo post is that this same webmaster is claiming their traffic is up in Bing, which doesn't make too much sense to me. Typically, the results you find in Bing are the same as the ones you find in Yahoo.

In any event, I looked at my own traffic on some sites and there does seem to be slight changes in traffic in Yahoo and Bing and those traffic changes seem to correlate between the two in the same date range.

Here is an example for the past few days on one of my sites with Bing and Yahoo traffic overlaid:

Bing Webmaster Tools Bugs?

Fetched: March 26th, 2012, 5:19pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing SEO

A Bing Community thread has complaints from some webmasters saying Bing Webmaster Tools is extremely buggy.

The issues reported consist of:

(1) Not being able to add new sites to the tool.

(2) Not being able to export data from the various reports.

One webmaster explained yesterday:

I've logged in to the webmaster tools area and have found it impossible to add a site - clicking the 'add site' button produces nothing. Clicking the 'export' button downloads a blank file.

Others confirmed the issues are a problem on all browsers including IE, Chrome, Firefox, Opera and Safari.

I tried it myself and I had no issues. So either Microsoft fixed the issue or it is only impacting some users.

Microsoft adCenter RAIS For Premium Advertisers Only

Fetched: March 20th, 2012, 9:38pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Microsoft Bing adCenter

Yahoo has offered rich ads in search (RAIS) for a while now and since Microsoft has taken over control of search ads, Bing is working on incorporating that feature.

Pamela Parker at Search Engine Land reported that the Microsoft pilot is now over and this feature is now available to "premium advertisers" for their "brand and navigational terms" to bid on.

What does a RAIS look like? Here is how it looks on Yahoo:

An advertiser wanted to participate and asked why he couldn't in the Microsoft Advertising Forums, he was told by Microsoft rep, Ricky Poole, after a long struggle in getting the answer:

What I found was this came out of pilot in October and is currently being offered to premium advertisers for their brand and navigational terms.

Ricky Poole added:

Yes, RAIS is a limited offering at this time but stay tuned to the blog for updates as they become available.

How soon? Who knows.

Bing As Fresh As Google? Microsoft Thinks So

Fetched: March 12th, 2012, 4:47pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

A WebmasterWorld thread is having discussion around a new Wired story named Microsoft Says Decaffeinated Bing Tastes as Good as Google. The story basically has Microsoft claiming they aren't necessarily better than Google but they are as good as Google on freshness and search quality.

Here are some quotes:

For good reason, Google has a reputation for using this sort of distributed computing system to reach new heights on the web. But Harry Shum, who oversees research and development for Microsoft's Bing search engine, believes his company has now matched Google's ability to build software platforms that can harness the power of tens of thousands of servers

What Caffeine is good at is freshness - how quickly you can crawl, index and serve documents,â Shum tells Wired. "This is something that we take very, very seriously [at Microsoft]. If you look at the freshness of our queries, I hope you feel that Bing's freshness - search quality in terms of freshness - is at least on par with Google. And, yes, it all starts with the infrastructure.

but Shum believes that Bing has finally reached a point where it can compete with Google on a technical level.

Easy enough for a blogger like me to test. I wrote about Bing's mobile SEO stance (which I think rocks) about 15 minutes ago. A few minutes after writing it, I searched the title tag of the article in both Google and Bing. Google returned the story in both Google News and Web Search at the top of the page. Bing, even 15 minutes later, didn't have the story in their index. Here are screen shots:

Bing:

At about 20 minutes after publishing the story, Bing has indexed it. Compare that to Google indexing the new story in seconds.

Bing Takes Clear Stance On Mobile SEO: One URL

Fetched: March 12th, 2012, 4:47pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing SEO

Duane Forrester from Microsoft posted on the Bing Search Blog a significant statement on mobile SEO. He said that Bing proposes the "one URL per content item" strategy.

Google has not been bold enough to make such a clear proposal, but Bing has and I am happy they have done so.

Bing said:

At Bing, we want to keep things simple by proposing the "one URL per content item" strategy. For each website, instead of having different URLs per platform (one URL for desktop, another for mobile devices, etc.), our feedback is that producing fewer variations of URLs will benefit you by avoiding sub-optimal and underperforming results. It can help manage unwanted bandwidth usage as well.

Bing explained the benefits include:

You have more ranking signals coming to this URL. Example: the vast majority of mobile URLs do not have inbound links from other websites as people do not link to mobiles URLs like they link to regular web-situated URLs.
This is also less search engine crawler traffic coming to your web servers, which is especially useful for large websites. Fewer URLs to crawl reduces the bandwidth our crawlers consume.
Less work (and potentially less cost) building, updating and maintaining a stand-alone mobile-focused website.

At the same time, Bing is not suggesting that every single mobile URL should match to a desktop URL and be that desktop URL. There are times when you need to have mobile specific landing pages, but when you do, Bing suggests that you "opt to block from us via the usual methods (robots.txt, webmaster tools)."

Google on the other hand has been very indecisive on their mobile SEO recommendations. The latest recommendation from an individual Googler but not as an official Google policy was to use the one URL approach but Google has suggested so many different methods in the past.

I am very happy Bing has taken a stance on which way SEOs and webmasters should focus and try to set some guidelines for mobile development in the future.

Bing Malware Warnings Adds Salt To Wound

Fetched: March 9th, 2012, 5:58pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

We know Bing takes 3-6 weeks for the malware removal label to disappear, which is much longer than Google's malware removal process (which is days). But to give Bing credit, they had user access to Webmaster Tools years before Google did.

In any event, can you imagine first finding out you had a malware warning and then having it removed to only find out you have to wait 3-6 weeks for the label to be removed from Bing's search results. Yea, that can be very very upsetting for those who were hacked into, injected with malware and now have to live with the consequences for another month or so.

A Bing Help thread has one frustrated user speaking up:

I have cleaned and secured my site over 4 weeks ago. But BING still shows a malware warning.
I was told that it should go away next time they index the site but i just received email from BING warning me about malware found. This is complete BS!

Should Bing work on speeding up this process a bit?

Exciting news, Bing has announced the introduction of a new API specifically to get data out of Bing Webmaster Tools.

The new API documentation can be read over here and allows you to take everything you see in Bing Webmaster Tools out of it with the exception of messaging and the keyword research data.

To access your Bing Webmaster Tools API, login and on the left hand navigation, you will see the option to access the API. Click on it, agree to the terms and then generate an API Key to give to your developer.

This is a pretty exciting announcement from Bing, opening up their data to developers.

Bing's New Design For Search Results

A WebmasterWorld thread has BingDude, an official Microsoft Bing representative explaining the rational for this:

Folks have to keep in mind that Bing is a decision engine, focused on "task completion". We've stated this from the outset, so trying things like these types of tests help us determine if this type of SERP behaviour strikes a positive or non-positive note with searchers.

How can I get Bing to license my content? And do I want them to? At least they aren't just scrapping it and showing it to users without paying for it.

adCenter 2+ Month Data Bug

Fetched: January 19th, 2012, 7:09pm CET by Barry Schwartz

I believe we reported this in November 2011, where advertisers using Microsoft adCenter haven't seen updated search volume data since early November.

The issue is specifically with the Excel Ad Intelligence plugin, where there is no new data since November and the November and October data was "questionable" to many advertisers. Since then, Microsoft said they are working on the problem, but two months later, still no fix.

Ricky Poole from Microsoft updated several forum threads saying:

I will reach out to the engineers and try to get an ETA. Please note, they are working on this fix and it is definitely a priority to have MAI functioning correctly.

adCenter Bans Accounts By Accident

Tags: Microsoft Bing adCenter

On Thursday there were some reports in the Microsoft Advertising Forum that advertisers were complaining they were not able to manage their accounts.

In short, they were banned from using Microsoft's adCenter product, which places search ads on Bing and Yahoo Search.

The reason they were banned was because their ads and sites were mistakenly labeled as serving up malware.

Ralph David, adCenter Community Team, said this was a mistake and they are working on fixing it. He did not specify how many accounts were effected, but he said:

We have identified an intermittent system error which has caused some accounts to be incorrectly flagged as 'Malware' and have been temporarily suspended. This issue has been escalated to our Technical Engineering Team with the highest priority in an effort to get your account up and running again as quickly as possible.
Please be aware that the Technical Engineering Team are in the US, so we may not have a resolution today. We do have support staff in the office on Saturday, so should anything come in from the Technical Engineering Team overnight, they will let you know in the morning.

As of now, I am not sure if it is fixed or not.

Those functions have not be accurately supported for a long time. You can see a full view of known backlink sinside your Bing Webmatser Tools account. Links, domains, URLs, anchor text, etc. all available there.

Yes, Bing has a nice Webmaster Tools that provides linkage data for your site. But many SEOs liked using Microsoft's link command for competitive research.

With Yahoo Site Explorer being dead it leaves SEOs with only paid tools as an option.

Google/Bing: No, You Want Search Results For That Instead

Fetched: December 29th, 2011, 7:17pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

For the past year or so, searchers at Google have expressed their displeasure with Google changing their search query because they think the searcher really wants to search something else.

But now those complaints are reaching over to Microsoft's search engine, Bing.

We've all seen it. You search for something and Google and now Bing, show you search results for something that doesn't match your exact query. Sometimes Google will be bold enough to say, you searched for X but we are showing you results for Y. Sometimes Google won't show it at all. Same with Bing.

A WebmasterWorld thread has a complaint from a Bing searcher who said "Now they're doing it too," referring to Bing doing what Google has been doing. Adding:

And I'm ### if I can find a way to say "Look, when I said nnn I meant nnn, not mmm or nmn or nnnn".

It can be frustrating to not find what you are looking for. Bing's Duanne Forrester said in response to the specific query example:

Ummm. if it's the number one result on G, the Facebook page for the, and I'm assuming here, "artist" that I'm seeing...it could be because of the inappropriate language the FB page is showing in its description.
Couple that with low query volume, and most typos still leading people to something they wanted (maybe they typoed but actually wanted Jimmy?) and you could have an answer on this particular phrase.

Bing May Discount Clicks On Popular Domain Names

Fetched: December 21st, 2011, 11:54pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing SEO

A WebmasterWorld thread has a discussion around a new Microsoft research paper named Domain Bias in Web Search (PDF).

The paper describes how reputable and popular domain names have a strong bias in the search results. Searchers are more likely to click on the results from a popular domain.

What is the issue with that? Well, they say in the paper that the "existence of domain bias has numerous consequences including, for example, the importance of discounting click activity from reputable domains."

In short, if Bing uses click data for ranking purposes, which they do on some level, then they have to factor in discounting in clicks from reputable domains to reduce the bias searchers have towards them.

Why does it matter if reputable domains get clicked on more, they should? Well, according to their study, in a blind searcher test - if you remove the domain factor, searchers are much less likely to click on those results. So to remove bias in the search results, they want to dampen the click factor ranking algorithm to not artificially inflate those results.

Here is the paper's abstract:

This paper uncovers a new phenomenon in web search that we call domain bias â" a userâs propensity to believe that a page is more relevant just because it comes from a particular domain. We provide evidence of the existence of domain bias in click activity as well as in human judgments via a comprehensive collection of experiments. We begin by studying the diference between domains that a search engine surfaces and that users click. Surprisingly, we find that despite changes in the overall distribution of surfaced domains, there has not been a comparable shift in the distribution of clicked domains. Users seem to have learned the landscape of the internet and their click behavior has thus become more predictable over time. Next, we run a blind domain test, akin to a Pepsi/Coke taste test, to determine whether domains can shift a userâs opinion of which page is more relevant. We find that domains can actually flip a userâs preference about 25% of the time. Finally, we demonstrate the existence of systematic domain preferences, even after factoring out confounding issues such as position bias and relevance, two factors that have been used extensively in past work to explain user behavior. The existence of domain bias has numerous consequences including, for example, the importance of discounting click activity from reputable domains.

Note: Of course you can't go what is written in a research paper as being implemented.

BingBot Hiding User Agent?

Fetched: December 21st, 2011, 1:29pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing SEO

A WebmasterWorld thread has one webmaster complaining that Microsoft is hiding the user agent for the spider, BingBot.

The webmaster said:

I'm not really sure if this is regular practice with MSN (Bing) or not. Since a few weeks back, they've been spidering my website without a proper User Agent (meaning their UA does NOT say anything about bingbot. It's just a regular browser UA). This happens from three different IP ranges. Yes, I've checked thoroughly and the IP rangers are registered under MSN.
I doubt this is manual review, since it doesn't look at all as normal human behavior.
Did they officially stop declaring their bots in User Agent strings?

So either Microsoft has a weird bug, someone is spoofing the crawler in a weird way or Microsoft is doing this on purpose?

I should note, I did not check my log files to verify this on my sites. So I am going with "zerillos" post and with no back up evidence.

However, Microsoft is known for their crawling issues. Most recently, crawling too hard, updating IPs and many more. BingBot is pretty new, coming to us just over a year ago.

Bing Webmaster Tools Showing Numbers Instead Of Keywords

Fetched: December 10th, 2011, 10:13am CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing SEO

A Bing Webmaster Help thread has a user posting a weird bug in Bing Webmaster Tools.

The bug is found under the traffic reports, in the "Rank and Traffic Stats" section, under the graph where it lists out the keywords you rank for and how valuable they are on a CPC basis.

In that section, instead of just listing out keywords, Bing is also listing out weird strings of numbers. Here is a picture from my Bing Webmaster Tools account:

Bing has yet to reply with any information about this bug.

Search Volume Data Not Updating In adCenter

Fetched: November 23rd, 2011, 8:27pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Microsoft Bing adCenter

A Microsoft Advertising Help thread has reports from adCenter advertisers that the search volume reports for daily and monthly search data has not updated since earlier this month.

One advertiser said:

I'm not seeing any new data for daily search totals after November 2, 2011 in the Excel Ad Intelligence plugin.

Another advertiser added:

The tool it reporting zero searches for October (which should be showing reported search totals by now), November and December. If anyone has any information on the problem and if/when it will be resolved, I would really appreciate it.

Microsoft support representative, Ricky Poole said he sent the information over to the tech team but did not give an ETA for a fix. He said:

I have asked our Engineering team to look into this further. As soon as I hear back I will provide you both an update in this forum.

Bing Search Update - Holiday 2011

Fetched: November 22nd, 2011, 4:42pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing SEO

There is a single post at WebmasterWorld with one SEO suggesting there was a Bing Search update recently.

The WebmasterWorld member, who is a long time member, said:

Very rarely do I notice updates in Bing but this one seems to be rather huge, major shakeups across the board. From what I see it is pushing "Brands" as well, though it hasn't been pushed to Yahoo yet, can you give us an update BingDude?

I did check the stats on this site and it seemed like we had double the traffic from Bing yesterday than we typically do on a weekday. But looking at a single day compared to other days is never a good indicator. I do not run ranking reports, so hard to confirm this myself.

We do not have confirmation from Bing yet, but I will try to get it soon.

The last update we reported on was in April from Bing and then prior to that, Bing did a holiday 2010 update but after the shopping season.

To push out updates now, right during or prior to the shopping season is something most search companies avoid. At least since the Google Florida update in 2003.

BingBot IP Ranges Updated

Fetched: November 16th, 2011, 5:14pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing SEO

One of the sleuths at WebmasterWorld noticed that Microsoft updated the IP ranges for the spiders, or some of them, formerly known as MSNBot and now known as BingBot.

The DNS for IP ranges 157.55 and 157.56 have been updated. He said:

I've been keeping a desultory eye on the MS 157 ranges for some time. Not sure when it actually happened - probably within the past few weeks - but MS seem to have taken notice of complaints - or just finally got their act together.
I had a handful of IPs tagged as msnbot in my database from a previous DNS scan some time back. The new ranges/sub-ranges (about 100) extend this range but also, in some cases, extend or reduce previously logged ranges. The list I now have, taken from DNS scans of the MS DNS servers, is included below. I think the list is accurate but I cannot guarantee it.

If you are using any software that detects IPs, you may want to check out the thread.

Microsoft announced they have a deal with Firefox to create a flavor of their browser with Bing as the default search provider.

So today we're teaming with Mozilla to release Firefox with Bing, a version of the popular Web browser that includes default search settings for Bing. Now Firefox users who are Bing enthusiasts can use Firefox with Bing to use the Web the way they want without having to take extra steps to navigate or customize their settings to Bing.
Firefox with Bing offers the latest version of Firefox with Bing set as your home page and the default setting in the search box and AwesomeBar (where you can also type in queries as well as Web addresses). If you already have the latest version of Firefox, then you just need to download the Bing Search for Firefox Add-on to set the same preferences.

You can download it over at firefoxwithbing.com.

Bing Influences Many SEOs To Use Meta Keywords Tag

Fetched: October 13th, 2011, 11:54pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing SEO

About a month ago, Bing confirmed they use the meta keywords tag as part of their many ranking signals.

As we said then, Yahoo did also. Most SEOs I know, at least in the publishing business, don't bother with the meta keywords but according to my poll, most will again.

So we ran a poll and have over 300 responses, they said:

48% will now use the meta keywords tag
30% will still not use the meta keywords tag
19% said they might, depending on how much free time they have
3% said "other"

Webmasters Love Bing Webmaster Customer Service

Fetched: October 10th, 2011, 4:22pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing SEO

Every now and then I see a post from a webmaster on how Bing is outstanding with customer service on the webmaster side.

We all know how Google rarely is able to give one on one support to webmasters. But Bing prides themselves on being smaller and quicker to reply on the one on one side with webmaster communication - and they do.

A WebmasterWorld thread has a recent report from one webmaster who contacted Bing via email on a webmaster related issue. Bing replied within 12 hours and fixed the issue within 4 days!

The webmaster said:

I contacted Bing webmaster support about some of my pages that were falling in the results periodically. The problem is they were attaching my home page title to some of my other urlâs titles. I actually wanted to solve the problem myself but it probably would have taken 1-2 months of testing.
In less than 12 hours Bing responded. They detailed why this was occurring and suggested work-a-rounds. Regardless of that Bing should have been interpreting the titles correctly and this was not the result of the ODP. Four days later the same support specialist re-contacted me to let me know the problem had now been corrected. The pages sprung to the top. The support specialist also inquired if I had any additional problems they could help with because this was helping them she explained. This was not a form letter.
Bottom line is I found the support at Bing to be very cordial at that time.

Like I said, this is nothing new for Bing - often Webmasters are very happy with Bing support.

Bing Deals - No, Not A Copy Cat

Fetched: September 26th, 2011, 6:58pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

Bing announced they have launched a new deals site at bing.com/deals.

But guess what? Bing did not create a deals clone, they instead went to the best deals sites and partnered with them.

Bing said:

Instead of building another program, we're harnessing deals from major providers and retailers, including Groupon, LivingSocial, Nordstrom, Target and many others, to help you cut through the clutter and find the best deals in one central location. Now you have a place to browse, find and purchase. Because weâve done the work, all you have to do is go to bing.com/deals.

How about that? Searching for deals! Take that Google on Google Offers. I like that because instead of Bing trying to bring the deals shoppers to them, they bring those shoppers to the original deals sites.

Features include:

One-Stop Shop: The new Bing Deals experience aggregates more than 200,000 deals across the US, including local deals, helping you easily match multiple deals to ensure you're getting the best one. There is no need to browse hundreds of websites or sign-up for multiple emails. You can find the best deals on the web at Bing.com/deals.
Browse for the Best Deals: Bing Deals cuts through the clutter by cleansing and organizing deals, so irrelevant deals are filtered out of your experience. You can browse by retailer, location, keywords or by category such as restaurants, spa services, arts & entertainment, and even nightlife to find exactly what you want quickly. If you're not sure what you're looking for, simply browse the top deals of the day to see if something sparks your interest!
Visual Search Results: Because shopping is a visual experience and so is searching on Bing, your deal search results are visually organized on the screen to help you easily sort through your options and find the best deal based on what you're looking for.
Daily Deals: With one click, you'll see the top daily deals featuring the very best offers in your metro area, with savings generally from 30%-50% off.
More Deals on the Go. If you've been enjoying Bing Mobile Deals at m.bing.com, you'll benefit from the same deals available on the PC.

Personally, none of my sitemaps in Bing are in pending status. But for some, including one webmaster complaining in a Bing Forum thread, the issue is still there.

If you visit Bing today, you might see a really fluid and cool background theme. The background is a video of the changing seasons at Grand Teton National Park.

It is a very nice theme which I believe was done to note the first day of Fall.

Note, the video background does not have hotspots, so the only way to know about the theme is to hover over the "i" icon. Also, Bing has placed a pause button.

Here is a video of the theme:

Google and Yahoo do not have fall themes or logos today but we do.

Bing: Social Factors More Important Than Linking Factors

Fetched: September 10th, 2011, 12:53pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing SEO

Eric Enge has an excellent interview with Bing's Duane Forrester. There are many excellent take aways from this interview but the key is this:

Bing says that social factors are more important that link factors for determining rankings. As Eric summarized, "The ranking of what priorities for publishers in Duaneâs eyes. #1 Content #2 Social Media #3 Links. Links were rated as the third most important area. Third."
Another major point, as Eric points out is that user interaction in the search results is looked at closely. He said, "The huge weight placed by Bing on user interaction with the search results as a ranking factor."
Another point is that Bing is relying on RSS feeds more and more for finding new content.
Bing has a very low threshold for bugs in Sitemaps files, in fact, he said, "1% allowance for dirt in a Sitemap," dirt such as links leading to 404 pages and so on.

Anyway, the interview is a must read for all SEOs, so check it out over here.

Twitter and Bing announce their contract renewal over Twitter. Here is a screen shot:

A few months ago, Google found themselves without a deal with Twitter, leaving them with no choice but to drop their real time search feature.

I guess this is Microsoft's way of saying - hey Google, not only do we have Facebook but we also have something else you do not have, Twitter.

How big a deal is all of this? I think it is. I want Google to bring back Twitter's real time content. Google + is fine but I want Twitter. Facebook, well, that would be huge for Google, but I don't see that happening any time soon.

The adCenter blog announced ongoing changes being made to how they score ad's relevancy and quality.

There's an expanded definition of relevancy, and a higher standard of relevancy required for extremely popular or 'trending now' keywords.
In the Landing Page and Site Quality section thereâs more detailed definitions
In the Landing Page and Site User Experience section, the following has been added as a scenario that may be considered a low-value user experience.
In the Marketplace Exclusion section there are two new/expanded definitions.

There are more details at the adCenter blog.

I should note, there is a WebmasterWorld thread with complaints about his ad prices soaring recently. He said:

One by one this change is sweeping through my various AdCenter accounts... last month there was a change made to the broad matching algorithm that loosened match criteria. In our case, the volume of impressions shot up by 25% in two days and our CPA went straight to hell because the new traffic is irrelevant, untargeted bunk. I know from friends in other companies that we're not the only ones having this problem. Frankly I think a rollback and a refund are in order but who listens to me lol.

Login to your Bing Webmaster Tools and click on a traffic report, you may notice a spike of twice as much traffic being report from August 13th on. I do.

The reason is because Bing has now incorporated Yahoo traffic and other data directly into the Bing Webmaster Tools.

The numbers that should inflate on these reports include:

Impressions â" will go up based on combined data numbers
Clicks â" will go up based on combined data numbers
Click Through Rates (CTR) as appropriate from above (change only due to the mathematics involved in the first two items)

Bing Search Ads Leading To Malware

A few days ago, ZDnet reported that some Bing search ads, i.e. adCenter ads, are leading to malware and viruses.

The author wrote that shortly after he notified Bing, Bing removed the ads. But he spotted more the next day. He wrote:

Yesterday, I showed you details of an ad on Microsoft's Bing search engine that led unwary visitors to a site serving up malware.
Several hours after I reported that ad to Microsoft, it was removed, and a spokesperson told me that Bing's ad network will "continue to directly work with our agency media partners to verify and confirm any suspicious orders."
Looks like there's more work to do.
This morning, I've found multiple ads on Bing that go through seemingly innocent intermediary sites to the same malicious server in Russia.

As many of you know, Google is big into malware detection. But sometimes, it can be really hard to detect and block in such an open auction environment.

Bing Testing Ads Mixed With Organic Search Results

Fetched: July 26th, 2011, 11:01am CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

Rimm Kaufman Group spotted a test where Bing was placing ads between the organic free search results.

The ads were not being tested above, below or on the side of the organic results. Instead, they were being tested between the organic free results. Just take a look at the picture from RKG below (click on it for a larger version) and see how hard it is to tell they are ads. See the little "ad" icon on the right, how it can easily be missed.

I received confirmation of the test at Search Engine Land, where Microsoft told me, "We're constantly testing and experimenting on Bing, and with that, we carefully measure user engagement and reaction to these changes. We have nothing further to share at this time."

That being said, Stefan Weitz, the Director of Search at Microsoft, commented on my Google + post on this saying:

To be clear -this is a flight for placement of algo driven ads lower in the page - not paid inclusion. We test stuff all the time - if the experience isn't good, it doesn't ship.

Yea, no one said it was paid inclusion but I did say this was the closest thing to paid inclusion I have seen in a long time. In October 2009, Yahoo finally decided to drop paid inclusion because of all the confusion it caused. Now, paid inclusion is actually a lot better, in my opinion, that sticking paid ads in the organic results. That being said, Stefan made it clear that this is just a test and if the market says no - it likely won't be rolled out.

Of course, PPC managers and management companies would love to see this. It would drive their clicks and conversions up drastically. But would you ever see such an implementation from Bing? I am not sure, I hope not. It just blends the unbiased, unpaid for, search results with the paid search results too much.

There are two threads with complaints from webmasters that Microsoft's search crawler, now named BingBot, is crawling way too heavily.

That being said, some are claiming BingBot is acting out of control. Honestly, if it was really bad, I believe more people would be complaining. But Microsoft does have a history of crawling too fast, cloaking their bots and creating fake referrals.

In any event, the update touches on more flexible crawl delays and controls. A new improved index explorer and a better way to manage user access to the control and reports within Bing Webmaster Tools.

Crawl delay configurable by the hour:

Users can ask us to crawl slower during peak business hours and have us crawl faster during off-peak hours
Simple drag-and-drop functionality allows you to create a crawl graph by clicking and dragging your mouse pointer across the graph. You can easily fine tune by clicking individual columns, too.
Feature enables dedicated pre-set crawl settings for AJAX websites

Index Explorer Revamp:

Freshness
Performance
Extensibility
Reduced machine footprint
Stability and failure detection
New sites will have Index Explorer data the moment they sign up

User and role management

Site owners can now grant admin, read / write, or read-only access to other users for their site using their existing verification code
They can also grant users access to parts of their sites (subdomains or folders)

Plus, Bing improved and added more documentation for Webmasters.

Bing Malware Label Removal Takes A Month

Fetched: May 31st, 2011, 7:27pm CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

A Bing Forum thread has Wil from Bing telling a webmaster that it can take between 3 and 6 weeks to have a malware label removed from the search results.

This is in comparison to Google which normally can remove a malware label within 24 hours.

I am not sure if this is a special case or if most Malware reviews take 3-6 weeks at Bing. Wil from Bing said:

Your issue is already being reviewed. Malware re-evaluation requests take 3-6 weeks to finalize our review and create a new reputation ranking of the page/site. A representative will get in touch with you for updates.

When you are presented with Malware via Bing, Bing disables the link but does allow the searcher to ultimately visit the page at their own risk. I'd assume 99.999% of those searchers run.

Bing has a detailed post on Malware on their blog with more information.

Malware and hacked sites are a huge issue in search. Google has been very good at handling it for the most part recently and is excellent at removing the malware or hacked label quickly after the site is fixed. Bing takes 3-6 weeks? Well, that seems excessive. Maybe I am reading it wrong?

Justin Schmauser from the Bing support team has posted a thread in the Bing Shopping Help forums asking those merchants who have inactive FTP accounts to let him know.

Over the past weeks or so, many merchants began complaining they have inactive FTP accounts, not allowing them to upload product data to Bing Shopping.

In response to this, what appears to be, wide spread issue, Justin from Microsoft posted a thread with steps these merchants should take.

He said in the Bing Shopping Help thread:

Please reply to this thread if you have one or more of the following issues:
You signed up for an adCenter account more than 10 days ago and your FTP account is still listed as Inactive.

Bing Upsets Webmasters By Linking Images Directly To Image File

Fetched: April 24th, 2011, 10:27am CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

Bing has made a minor change that can have a major impact on webmaster's traffic. If you search at Bing for images and then click on the image, instead of Bing taking you to the page with the image within the context, it takes you directly to the image itself.

For example, instead of Bing taking you to this page for the image used at the top right of this post, it would take you directly to images.seroundtable.com/t-bing-images-change-1303389217.jpg by passing the content on this page, the ads, and the impressions I get to this site.

A WebmasterWorld thread has a complaint from one webmaster, where he said:

hmm incredible now Bing makes the same mistake as google, they only show the image not the site anymore, dont they get it, that sites with images have a lot of bandwidth to pay for so they are dependent on ads like CPM ads, they need real impressions, not just hotlinking.
this is placed instead of your page : Displaying this page may force you to leave Bing Images. Opening the page in a new window will prevent this. Open in a new window | Open here
On google a script worked to redirect to real page, but how to do this with bing any suggestions.

Does this upset you?

Bing Search April Algorithm Update?

Fetched: April 6th, 2011, 4:17am CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing SEO

A WebmasterWorld thread is asking if anyone noticed a Bing Search update over the weekend.

There are only two posts, but for Bing, that can mean a sign of an update.

One SEO asked:

I am seeing different results for the last week. The results are substantially different. Overall traffic is about the same. But rankings are all over the place.

Has anyone else noticed a change in their Bing traffic over the weekend?

adCenter Updates Coming: Notice Of Possible Downtime

Fetched: April 4th, 2011, 2:36am CEST by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Microsoft Bing adCenter

As to not upset advertisers, Microsoft has issued a big heads up that they are performing maintenance on Microsoft adCenter tonight through tomorrow morning.

The update doesn't seem to be significant. In fact, they said the "adCenter Engineering team will be rolling out some improvements to adCenter." Those improvements are expected to be "minimal internal upgrades." But it may result in "latency and timeout issues within adCenter and pubCenter" console. So be aware.

The maintenance window is between 4pm EST (1PM PDT) today and 8PM EST (5PM PDT) tomorrow, April 1, 2011. It is a very big window, 28 hours to be exact. I am not sure if a 28 hour window is normal for typical upgrades but this is the information we have from Microsoft.

Research Paper On Bing Determining Web Page Credibility

Fetched: March 24th, 2011, 4:49pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing SEO

A WebmasterWorld thread cites a new research paper published by Microsoft Research named Augmenting Web Pages & Search Results For Improved Credibility (PDF).

In short, how does or could Bing determine the credibility of a web page based on the content and signals surrounding a specific web page. And if they can determine the credibility of a web page, how can they use that for search engine rankings in Bing search results?

Here is the abstract:

The presence (and, sometimes, prominence) of incorrect and misleading content on the Web can have serious conse-quences for people who increasingly rely on the internet as their information source for topics such as health, politics, and financial advice. In this paper, we identify and collect several page features (such as popularity among specialized user groups) that are currently difficult or impossible for end-users to assess, yet provide valuable signals regarding credibility. We then present visualizations designed to augment search results and Web pages with the most prom-ising of these features. Our lab evaluation finds that our augmented search results are particularly effective at in-creasing the accuracy of users' credibility assessments, highlighting the potential of data aggregation and simple interventions to help people make more informed decisions as they search for information online.

I was going to go through and pull out the metrics Microsoft covered in the paper, but I do not have to do that. Bill Slawski already did that at his blog, SEO By The Sea. He summarized:

Here are some of the "credibilty" signals that that they looked at:

On-Page Features

Spelling Errors
Number of Advertisements on a page
Domain Type (.com, .gov. etc.)

Off-Page Features

Awards and Certifications, such as the Webby Award, Alexa Rank, Health on the Net (HON) awards.
Toolbar PageRank, and Rankings for Queries used in generating their data set
Sharing information, from sites like Bit.ly and other shortening sites, Likes and shares and comments and clicks from Facebook, Clicks from shortened URLs on Twitter, bookmarks on Delicious.

User Aggregated Non-Public Data from Toolbar Usage

General Popularity â" unique visitors from users
Geographic Reach â" number of visitors from different geographic regions
Dwell Time â" amount of time users kept a URL open in their browser (as an estimate of how long they might have viewed a page
Revisitation patterns â" how often people revisited a page, on average
Expert Popularity â" the behavior of people who have been shown to have an expertise in a pariticular field, and user data about their visits to pages in those fields.

Very nicely done and Bill goes through it even more deeply at his blog.

IE9 Bugs With Microsoft adCenter Forums

Fetched: March 24th, 2011, 4:49pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Microsoft Bing adCenter

You can understand that when Apple or Google or Mozilla release new browsers and they don't work with Microsoft web sites. You can also understand when Microsoft releases a new browser and it doesn't work fully with Apple or Google web sites. But I cannot understand why Microsoft will release a browser and it not work with Microsoft web sites.

A adCenter Forum thread has complaint from Microsoft adCenter advertisers that Internet Explorer 9, Microsoft's latest browser, does not work with the adCenter Forums.

Basically, if you are using IE9 and trying to post a question in the forums, you are completely out of luck.

One advertiser said:

I recently upgraded to IE9 and have been unable to post to the Adcenter forum. It works fine with another browser. When you hit post everything you enter disappears never to be seen again.

Microsoft said they are working on a fix but until then they recommend:

Workaround is to click 'compatibility mode' (symbol next to the address link).
Also this should be fixed also in final release of IE9. But if you still can't post use the 'compatibility mode'.

Bing Updates Mobile Search Experience

Bing has updated their mobile search experience on HTML5 enabled mobile smartphone browsers to add a bunch of features. The features include:

Transit Directions and Real-Time Transit
Image Search with sliders and orientation support
Shopping improves access to shopping questions answered, comparison shop, and discover product details and user reviews
Added Weather Autosuggest and Instant Answers to the search bar
iPhone apps search added when you search using an iPhone
Movie search includes time and nearest theatre, along with reviews, synopsis, trailers and additional information

Here is a closer look at the iPhone app results, I am honestly not sure how they rank the results because they are not in the same order as the iTunes Store:

adCenter Console Missing Advertisers Campaigns & Ads

Fetched: March 24th, 2011, 4:49pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Microsoft Bing adCenter

Go login to your Microsoft adCenter account and try to see if you can manage your search ad campaigns, the search ads that are displayed on Bing, Yahoo Search and their partners. Can you? Do you see anything? If not, you are not alone.

Starting this morning, adCenter advertisers have been complaining about the issue in the Microsoft Advertising Forum.

The first report came at 12 minutes after midnight. The advertiser said:

Once logged in, All the adgroups and campaigns are disappeared as if it's a new account. All the recent reports are not there as well. However, once I checked the ad preview tool, they're all still running.

So the ads are still running but you cannot manage them, change them, pause them or delete them? I guess not.

Several other advertisers came in this morning to say they are having the same issue.

As of now, Microsoft has yet to reply to advertiser concerns, but I suspect the issue will be resolved as soon as they find out about it.

Bing announced you can now search Bing Shopping like a human by just typing out, conversational style, what you are looking for.

The examples give include [hudsons jeans under $200] or [air jordans under $100].

Here is a screen shot:

Bing said:

Under the hood, we try to detect a price constraint in your query, and intelligently adjust the results to match your criteria. Right now, this only works for prices, and only for US users. This is just a small step in our journey to make search friendlier to natural language queries, and help you quickly find what youâre looking for.

Bing Increases Integration With Facebook Likes

Fetched: February 28th, 2011, 10:06am CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

Bing has announced they have tightly integrated the Facebook Likes data they began using back in October into the Bing search results.

I believe this move is to counter-act Google's announcement of their tighter integration of social search elements into the search results.

With Google, these social integrations can influence the ranking of the results - it does not appear to be the same with Bing's Facebook integration. It seems that if a Bing search result does have any Facebook like data, then Bing will label it under the search result. Bing will not boost a search results in the rankings based on that data - at least not yet. Also, Bing has Facebook likes, whereas Google does not.

Here is a before and after screen shot of Bing displaying such results with Facebook likes:

Before - Bing Without Facebook Likes:

After - Bing With Facebook Likes:

Bing Now Using Location & Previous Search History To Personalize Results

Fetched: February 21st, 2011, 1:04pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

Bing announced last week that they are venturing into personalized search results. Yes, they have announced a partnership with Facebook to personalize results, but those are within box elements on the page, not tailoring the actual results you get.

This new announcement is Bing's first real venture into personalizing the actual search results based on two personalization factors.

(1) Location

(2) Previous Searches

Bing admits some of these personalization are "relatively simple" but they can make a huge difference. I should note, Google has been doing these personalization techniques for years.

(1) Location: If you search for something that may have local intent, such as [pizza], Bing will use your location to tailor local pizza results.

(2) Previous Searches: Bing is now presenting relevant website based on an individual's previous searches. For example, if you are searching for travel related keywords and then search for [jfk], Bing might understand you are looking for the airport as opposed to the President.

There has been no forum discussion on this until yesterday and that forum discussion is actually referencing the old Facebook announcement.

Microsoft adCenter Sandbox Issues Resolved?

Tags: Microsoft Bing adCenter

There have been reports at the Microsoft Advertising Community with complaints from advertisers of adCenter who use the adCenter API.

The specific complaints are around the Sandbox v7 Campaign Management Service. The service seems to return an error, "Connection reset by peer - SSL_connect."

Others are also reporting other errors such as "500 read failed."

Eric Urban from Microsoft said the issue should have been resolved, but was it? Eric said:

Is anyone still experiencing this issue? My understanding is that it should be resolved. Please let me know otherwise.

Are you using the adCenter Sandbox API and having this issue?

Two Years Of Default Use, Bing Scores Well With Searchers

Fetched: January 17th, 2011, 10:51pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Bing Search

WebmasterWorld's founder, Brett Tabke, switched to Bing about two years ago. He changed his default search provider from Google to Bing and stuck with Bing for two years. After using Bing for two years, Brett posted a thread at WebmasterWorld describing the pros and cons of Bing, compared to Google.

In short, Brett is sticking with Bing. He enjoys the user interface, the results and the speed. He dislikes the depth of the results and the maps, but overall, he feels Bing will continue to improve and will remain his search engine of choice in the near future.

Here is Brett's full review and I'd recommend going to the thread and checking out the other details and responses.

Brett's Notes:

I find the top page of Bing results to be as good as Google.
I return to Google about 30% of the time for difficult topics (mostly in long tail research mode).
Depth is not as good on Bing in the page 2+ results.
Bing is much easier to use and faster to use. More reliable. Even if I can't find what I want - I stick with Bing to avoid the interface mess of Google.
Rarely do I search images, but when I do, Bing rocks.
I like and use Google maps over Bing maps 100% of the time. (Although I do find Bing maps to have fresher and more accurate directions)
News - Google is fresher at news than Bing.

Where Bing Disappoints:

2nd page results.
Ads vs results are not always clear if you are clicking on an ad or not.
Filtering. I occasionally run into adults in clean searches.
Ads are extremely 'broad match'. Too much. I find alot of useless ads on Bing. (search for "hp printer driver downloads" and compare)

Where Google Disappoints:

Ease of use. Google has put so much misc junk on to the serps, it truly is hard to sort out. From Maps, multi-indents, to ever changing irreproducible results, it is a cluster that you can't count on. It just isn't reliable or trusty worthy to me.
Compatibility. I use numerous devices to connect in a day (Opera Desktop, PalmPre, iPad, iPhone, FireFox). I continuously run into all kinds of Google compatibility bugs and find I have to go to another search engine. I find it is basically suitable for IE and Chrome. After that, it is a crap shoot if Google is going to work for you.
They are so heavy with the 'authority' brands, that good content is often buried. I find this most often true when searching for brand name related content. For example: right now I am researching Zimbra email server and it is hard to find content that wasn't generated by Zimbra.

Brett's Bottom line:

Google is so busy trying to be some body, they have forgot that they already are some body.
Bing - stay the course. You got me to change for 2 years, you are doing something right.

Do you agree or disagree? Did you switch?

adCenter Goes Offline During Winter Storm

Fetched: December 28th, 2010, 3:05pm CET by Barry Schwartz

Tags: Microsoft Bing adCenter

Yesterday morning Microsoft adCenter, Bing's search marketing product, went offline for a period of time. Microsoft confirmed the outage in the Microsoft Advertising Forum yesterday and this morning confirmed it was fixed.

The first report came yesterday morning, Monday, December 27th at 7:30AM. Microsoft then confirmed the issue about 20 minutes later. This morning, almost 24 hours after that report, Microsoft confirmed it was fixed.

Paul K. from the Microsoft team said:

Currently the issue has been resolved. If you are experiencing anymore issues please contact support with screenshots and description of what is occurring. We will be glad to investigate further.

Exactly what caused the issue is unknown. I doubt it was related to the big winter storm we had here Sunday and Monday but hey - you never know.

The CPC Strategy blog reported Bing has migrated the Bing Shopping Merchant portal to the adCenter portal. This is a new Merchant Self Service Portal linked to Microsoft's adCenter, making it easier for adCenter customers to serve up their product data to Microsoft.

He also started a WebmasterWorld thread where he asked:

Just curious of your thoughts about Bing Shopping's merchant portal migration to Microsoft's adCenter. There is now seamless integration and data feed optimization reports to utilize, seems much easier to work with than the old system on Bing Cashback's merchant center.

He has additional screen shots of the process and reports at his blog.
