Why did I drop off the face of the earth for bing but am #1 in google and yahoo?
-
This just happened two days ago and I don't get it. I have been using rank tracker.
-
It is odd for you to be listed as #1 in Yahoo but not listed in Bing. Can you please share your site URL and the keyword involved?
-
One more thing, do you have access to a proxy (i.e. HMA?) I was seeing wildly different results in rank tracker by my own ip vs others. Maybe you can tell us the domain and I can look it up to see what results I get?
-
Try adding some out going links to some authority sites inside of some content not sidebar or footer links. I have tried this on a clients site in the finance niche and got a 6% percent increase in traffic from Bing without making any other changes.
I used the name of the sites I linked too (mostly banks not competing dorectly with my clients sites for same keywords) as the anchor text for the links.

I've experienced the same issue recently. No bounce back as yet. But not all hat bothered, as Google still going strong and in the UK it accounts for approx. 94% market share for search engines.

This happened to a few of my sites last week, just completely dropped of the face of Bing for two or three days, no rankings and not even in the index. Then magically came back. The sites it happened to were unrelated and on different servers. I don't have an explanation or any advice but to make sure your sitemaps etc are all good in Bing Webmaster Tools. Hope your sites bounce back like mine did.

Competitor is climbing google faster then me utilizing an RSS feed?
Hello everyone, I am fairly new to SEO (I've learning as much as possible the last 2 weeks!) and its a fun and interesting process thats already helped immensely with my website thanks to the community members for answering questions. I am a wedding photographer and videographer on Kauai, and as with most photography sites we are fairly image heavy text light (Working to change that as we speak). That being said my competitor www.joshuagrantrose.com (my site is www.balihaiphoto.com) is growing his organic results very quickly. Is this due greatly in part to this Parent directory which then leads to single pages like this of images? With how many single pages there are like this linked in the background of the site with Im assuming with descriptive and proper text, keywords, and so on of each alum like this (lots and lots of images and pages/links). If someone could help with understanding this or implementing it would be of great help as I've only gotten my feet wet with SEO and don't want to be making wrong assumptions or analysis! Many thanks for any ideas or insight everyone, -Jon

Major Drop in URLs that Received Organic Search Visits
Hi there! I can't figure out this issue. We had a major drop in URLS receiving organic search visits (according to Koz) yet our traffic hasn't seemed to drop in correlation. Our site had a major issue at the end of may (*hence the drop in search traffic) but it seems to have recovered, yet URLs that Received Organic Search Visits has dropped dramatically. I've looked at Google updates but can't seem to find anything, what am I missing? NVun4Wq

What are the factors that have an impact on the google search results?
When I compare the ranking of my keywords with the Moz Rankings and my own search results I get different results even I use the google chrome incognito browser (not logged in, no cookies, no cache) and it's definitely the same country-setting (google.de) where the search is run. I double checked it with several browsers and computers, and I still get a different result as the Moz Ranking Tracker. The keyword is "schafkopf" and the site is www.sauspiel.de. The relevant country is Germany (www.google.de). Does anyone know the reason why the results differ? Could it be the search query was made from different countries/IPs? Any ideas, hints?

Best way to rank an E-commerce site fast? [GOOGLE]
Does anyone have experience in ranking E-commerce sites? I'm trying to rank 1000+ subcategorys and 300+ products. All less than 1k Exacts some are just 20ish some go up to 1k. I've used Traffic Travis all keywords are ranked as [Easy] along with the tools here. My competition have 0 backlinks to there sites. Some sites have PR1-4 (only 2-3 per SERP rest are 0 so should be quite easy. However I'm up against Amazon and Google shopping for the products. Anyways what would you guys recommend me do?

Google UK rankings don't seem to be accurate.
Just a quick question - I am tracking the keyword 'chemistry teaching resources' as part of a campaign and our site comes up at number 4 on a google.co.uk search for this however in the rankings report section of our account, we are ranked at number 50 for this keyword in the 'google UK' column. Does anybody know why this would be different? It is also different for a number of other keywords in the campaign. Any help you could give would be much appreciated. Thanks
