What is causing Bing and Google Rankings to Differ by so much?
-
Does anyone know the trick to have Google Rankings to be as good as Bing/Yahoo Results?

That's a great question. I have wondered the same thing for so long, as I have been working on the SEO of our soccer equipment store at www.soccerstop.com for several years. One thing I have noticed is that it takes time. When I optimize or focus our backlink network to particular keywords it takes affect for the different search engines at different times, but eventually it seems to get to all of them. It's so easy to want to keep making changes because you may see a result in one and not the other. Then from the changes you don't know what's working or not working because the first set of changes hasn't taken affect in one or more of the search engines. I have felt that you have to come up with a plan and make those changes as you see necessary, and then give it some time to take affect.

I wish I knew...I cannot get our main site rank on bing for a particular keyword, yet we also have a site under a different domain that we have done absolutely nothing with that is ranking in the middle of the first page on that keyword on a consistent basis for months now...I guess bing just really likes that crappy site that provides next to no good content...
From my experience on a couple of sites it also looks like bing really favors wordpress, but who knows?

Search engines are like people and food..... Some like Japanese food... others hate it... some like Indian food... others hate it... Difficult to explain why.

My opinion, you can rank well in bing without any links or just a few, if you have every thing else right, google you need some good links.
there are many other factors, they have different algorithms, if you post a url, we can have a look and give a better opinion.

Why am I ranking on both Bing and Yahoo and yet the rankings are declining on Google
I'm seeing ranking go up on both Bing and Yahoo and yet they are going down on Google. I did see a bunch of spammy links show up about a month ago but have managed to get all those taken down although did not get any warnings from Google in Webmaster tools about them was more of a preemptive measure. The site in question. http://www.gocitrusnow.com

Blocking Subdomain from Google Crawl and Index
Hey everybody, how is it going? I have a simple question, that i need answered. I have a main domain, lets call it domain.com. Recently our company will launch a series of promotions for which we will use cname subdomains, i.e try.domain.com, or buy.domain.com. They will serve a commercial objective, nothing more. What is the best way to block such domains from being indexed in Google, also from counting as a subdomain from the domain.com. Robots.txt, No-follow, etc? Hope to hear from you, Best Regards,

Why aren't our articles ranking in Google?
We have a website promoting Pakistani lawyers online. The website also has an articles section where we post articles reviewing different legal cases and laws. All of our articles are written by actual lawyers are high quality and unique. Website itself doesn't have large page/site authority but its not a baby website either. I can't figure out why our articles don't rank on Google. Here are few of the articles:

Why Does Google Keep Changing My Page Titles?
I know Google has been doing this for quite some time but how do you "control" what Google will display as your page name? Lots of my pages come up with a title like "[searched keyword] - [website name]" in the search results. I usually a huge drop in CTR when this happens. On the other hand, there are some pages which have kept their title intact in the search results. So what gives? How come one page's title is changed and the other is not?
