Why some sites doesn't get ranked in Google but in Bing and Yahoo
-
Few of my sites e.g. Business-Training-Schools.com and Ultrasoundtechnicians.com doesnt get much visits from Google but these sites get top ranked in Bing and Yahoo. I have tried searching for answer to these question but i did not find anything convincing.

Google uses a different algorithm to calculate rankings than Bing and Yahoo (Yahoo is now powered by Bing so both will always give the same results).
While the many factors that both Bing and Google take into account might be similar they are not identical. What might get you hit with a Google penalty (and see your site wiped off the SERP map in Google) might have no effect in Bing.
Here's a handy infographic from pentonmarketingservices.com on the differences between the two. Of course, the differences between the two are always changing as Google constantly brings out new updates:

I wouldn't worry about it, no one uses Bing or Yahoo!!

I am relatively new to SEO. But different search engines use different ranking factors into their mix. So what might work for a search engine might not convince the other SE.
Your strategy should be aligned with your Traffic SEO Objetives,
I personally would relocate my SEO Efforts towards Google, because its high volume of traffic, in order to meet your objectives.
I have a similar situation but in the reverse order. I am well ranked in Google, but i am in the dumper for Bing, and mediocre in Yahoo. However, the traffic that i get from Google is very high and meets my SEO Objetives.
Hopefully my comments were of some help!!
Thanks for sharing your situation,
Regards!

Does Google like pricing information?
Over the last year I have noticed a trend in a couple of industries. Google seems to prioritise landing pages with pricing information in the content. This seems more important than it used to. One industry is high end industrial machines. Traditionally there isn't a price list as everything is bespoke for the customer. Low end machines that display an off the shelf price are now ranking higher than they used to. This is frustrating because the different machines meet different customer requirements. However, both sorts of customers are likely to use the same search terms. Has anyone else noticed this trend?

Google Hangout Video Takeover?
A while back I posted about a youtube video campaign that dominated the attorney rankings throughout Florida. Today, I noticed a new hangout video that does not have the reach of the before mentioned video, but it has just popped up as number three for the term "Tampa Car Accident Attorney." It wasn't even listed anywhere in the first few pages Monday. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=barTgGYQTIM Has anyone else noticed Google Hangout Videos having this kind of success or is this a "flash in the pan" incident? Also, is there any significance to this even being a Google Hangout video as opposed to just a youtube video? Thanks, Ruben

Bing Vs Google SERP
I realize the major search engines use different criteria but I don't see how - for the same home page keyword - my site could rank #3 on page 1 for a Bing search and be off the charts (Page 15+)? on Google. Has Google gone so far off the charts with their new Penguins and Pandas so as to be in a different universe? Seems Google is now extremely over-weighting big sites like Wikipedia, WebMD, eHow, etc. and in doing so vastly reducing the diversity of results shown. I am commonly seeing different pages of the same website appear multiple times in the first 2-3 pages of Google results. What's the point?

The Google/Yahoo Connection
I have been telling myself and clients for a while that you do not need to specially SEO things for different search engines. While I stand by this (staunchly) I can't help but notice how SLOW yahoo is to pick up my SEO updates and rank them as compared to google. Sometimes I see Rank increases within a day or two (or sooner) But Yahoo is still well behind in their caching and calculations.

Why some results in SERP have a www. and some don't
Hello all, If this is posted twice, I didn't mean for it to be - but it looks like last time I tried to post this question it didn't post. This is my question: How come some results on Google's SERP page are shown with a "www" and some are not? Does this effect SEO at all? I am including a screen shot so you can see what I mean. The Geary Interactive result has a "www" in front of while ingenexdigital doesn't. R6GLL.png
