Bing and Yahoo Vanished
-
I currently have a Website that is ranking #1 or #2 for almost every keyword we are targeting in Google; however, when I go to Yahoo or Bing the site doesn’t appear at all. In fact, even when I search for the domain using these engines I don’t appear – only a sub-domain that’s hosted on the site does and at the bottom of page 1 for the domain search.
Any insight as to what might be causing this or where I should start looking?

I submitted my site map to Bing Webmaster tools yesterday and it's still flagged as 'pending'. Does it normally take that long?

I'd start by verifying your site in Bing Webmaster Tools and seeing if they have any messages for you.

HUGELY different ranking for a keyword between Bing and Google. Looking for ideas.
We rank really well for a brand in Bing (#2 behind manufacturer, and it's a competitive name) but are in about 15th place in Google. Any suggestions on what could be hurting us in Google are welcome!

Excellent performance in BING, terrible performance in GOOGLE
Dear all, We're struggling with the SEO of our platform www.taobao.nl for 6 months now. I posted some matters before on the MOZ forum and followed up the ideas that i received (tnx again 🙂 But so far there really isn't much result. Recently i found out that my platform is doing excellent in search engine Bing.com (ranking top 3/4 on my main keyword 'taobao') while my platform's homepage is still ranking dramatically in Google on the same keyword (ranking between position 180-280) Does anybody have some insight for me what could be the reason for this or how/where i can fund it out? Many thanks in advance! Sander

Bing not indexing website for some weird quality reason
Hi,I have a strange problem. My website www.dealwithautism.com is just 2 months old and have 40+ high quality articles that are already beginning to see some organic traffic from Google without any off page SEO (link building, etc). By quality articles I mean:
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | DealWithAutism
1. Each article is 1500+ words of unique and highly relevant content with solid on page SEO (images may be reused from Google images). Moz page grader=A for most pages 2. Pretty well structured (with good number of internal links) 3. Entire site (all pages) delivered over https SSL using 301 redirect 4. No malware or spammy backlinks 5. NAP details and social signals available 6. Already ranking top10 in google SERPs for long tail KWs 7. According to Google Webmasters, no crawl errors except for a few (less than 10) 404s 8. Fully responsive - all pages tagged as "Mobile Friendly" by Google However, since day 1, Bing has not indexed a single page on my website (xml sitemap was updated from day 1) even though they are crawling the site. I recently raised an Email ticket and this was their response: "Upon checking, it appears that your site did not meet the standards set by Bing to get indexed the last time it was crawled. However, we will be looking further into this issue along with the Product Group to review the content of your website for re-evaluation. We currently do not have an ETA for the update but please be assured that we will get back to you as soon as they become available." Now based on my previous experience, this could take months. Following are just a few sample pages on the website: https://www.dealwithautism.com/oppositional-defiant-disorder-treatment-and-odd-case-study/ https://www.dealwithautism.com/tourette-syndrome-symptoms-treatment-for-tourettes/ https://www.dealwithautism.com/autism-test-for-toddlers/ I believe the quality of these pages are quite good for a small new website.
Then what does Bing mean by "website not meeting standards"? Am I missing a piece of the puzzle? I would have thought that Google was more quality focused than Bing but my SEO performance in Google is currently exceeding my expectation. Can you experts please help me out here?0 -
How to switch to HTTPs in Bing?
I am creating a list of all things I need to do for switching a site over to HTTPs. I can find great instructions for Google, but nothing for Bing. If I do everything that Google requires, is the only thing I need to do for Bing is the site move?

Are there different tactics to optimize for Bing vs. Google?
We are ranking very well in Google SERPS, but lackluster for the most part in Bing SERPS. i haven't seen anything that clearly lays out how to optimize for Bing, but my concern is that if we make changes to opt for Bing that we might lose Google ranking. Any insight as to what we might do?
