Every website I create get’s instantly indexed in both Google and Yahoo, yet never gets indexed in Bing until I shout and scream in their community forums and Brett Yount manually adds it!

How do they expect to be successful with this type of activity… And all the forum experts say “focus on building quality backlinks” – bullshit! I’m not asking to be number one…I’m asking to be indexed… a process that Yahoo and Google have no problem doing…I will focus on backlinks in my efforts to be at the top of the SERPs but that is secondary to just being listed!

Think about it, a small business owner who is focussing energy on a website (growing numbers of businesses focussing efforts online)…
I have a website and Bing doesn’t index it…
1. I’m never going to use Bing because it won’t list my site
2. I’m never going to tell anyone else to use Bing because they wont find me there

They’re shooting themselves in the foot by making getting listed so difficult!

There is clearly a major issue with their index and it either can’t keep up or is very buggy…

Boo Bing!

Hell, I’m a member of Technet and MS already know me.

Thats right, MS has a list of site owners but didn’t even look at it when creating their search fockup.

I’m still waiting for their stupid attempt at search engine to actually VISIT MY SITE – Sept 09????

Let alone index it…..

Oh, I am number one in Google and most others SE if not front page, Bing doesn’t know I EXIST??

It might be better this way.

Try again MS…

Their maps stuff has some stuff which is better than Google Maps, but yeah, I don’t even know if Live Maps (or bing.com/maps) is the same thing as Multimap.

Yeah, mega confusing – and that’s even for people with some web savvy!

haven’t tried the bing search thing at all…. but i’ve quite enjoyed wandering around the birds eye view of dublin on bing maps. good coverage.. all the way out to where i live.

but yeah.. it does all seem confusing.
