Bing - how come we are not shown in listing?
-
Hi
When looking for our site 'mpn windows' on Bing www.mpnwindows.com it brings back no results for the site? It has been registered in bing webmaster center with pages starting being indexed on the 3rd October as we only recently included it in Bing.
In Google it is showing up ok however?

From the standpoint of Bing not indexing all pages my first guess would be poor internal linking and then insure you have a good site map. One of the biggest errors I see when we have a problem is that we have not paid close enough attention to our internal linking.
Hope it helps.
Had to go look again. From what I see the only link to Conservatories Llanelli is in the footer. This may be where your problem is as it appears the others all have other links. Try putting a link from one of the other areas on the page and see what affect it has.

Thanks for the reply
What is curious however is that Bing has not indexed all of the pages in the site? what could be causing this?
The other issues is searching for phrases such as 'Conservatories Llanelli' does not bring back any sort of listing for http://www.mpnwindows.com/conservatories-llanelli.php while on Google its a 1st page listing same goes for 'PVC Windows Cardiff'
I understand that there are different ranking factors dependent on the engine used but what could be done to the site both onsite and offsite to improve the Bing ranking for target keyphrases as above while also comlementing and improving the Google rank.

In Bing I just did a Site:www.mpnwindows.com and got a full return showing multiple urls for that subdomain. When I did same with Site:mpnwindows.com root, I got back the same. It appears you have a good canoncical redirect as well as it returns the www. subdomain on either.
Not sure what problem you are having or if I just hit it as it had been solved. Either way it appears you are good to go.
Edit - Also got clever and went to rank tracker and put in mpnwindows.com as keyword and http://mpnwindows.com as url and you are ranked #1 for that search term on Bing. (Just curious if it would work.)

Client is not ranking on Google For Brand Name Search but is on Yahoo and Bing
We have a mobile app development client that recently 6 months ago changed their domain name to www.FSStudio.com. So they are concerned that they don’t rank on the first page for the brandname phrase “FS Studio” On Google. They do rank on the first page for this phrase in Yahoo or Bing. But why is Google returning search results for stuff like Free Studio? I know this fairly obvious question which the answers may be that they need more authority or backlinks because their name happens to be a fairly competitive search for stuff that is unrelated. Any suggestions? We are going to be optimizing and creating a lot more content. Is this just that they need to mention their name FS Studio more frequently throughout their website? Here is a screenshot from Moz’s Keyword difficulty and SERP Analysis tool. agwlY9i.png

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

Does Bing consider http://www.domain.com the same as https://www.domain.com?
Bing Webmaster Tools showed me that sometimes it displays https://www.domain.com in its results and sometimes http://www.domain.com. That got me thinking. Does Bing consider https to be a seperate duplicate copy of the http version? IE does my site get knocked down for duplicate content because of this? In Google webmaster tools, I can tell it whether I want https or http. But I dont know how to tell Bing. Any pointers will be appreciated. Thanks Dan

Double Listing
So what does it take to get a double listing? If someone has already answered this, please just send the link. Obviously lots of anchor text links to both pages. Also, do I link from both pages to each other for google to see the correlation? For example, homepage link to interior page. And interior page link back to homepage using same anchor text that I want to get the double listing for. Thanks in advance!

Long or Short URLs. Who's Coming to Dinner?
This has been discussed on the forums in some regard. My situation. Example 1 Long Keyword URL: www.abctown.com/keyword-for-life-helping-keywords-everywhere-rank-better Example 2 Short Keyword URL: www.abctown.com/keyword In both examples I want to improve rankings for the "keyword" phrase. My current URL is example 1. And I've landed a page one ranking in Google (7) with that URL. In attempts to improve rankings further (top 5), I was toying with the idea of going simpler with all my URLs in favor of the example 2 model. Might this method help or hurt my current rankings? In recent articles I've read it seems that going with the simpler more human approach to my SEO efforts. Any thought would be appreciated. Cheers,
