The new created Bingbot according to them is designed to crawl more easily even contents from non-optimized sties. The new Bingbot has plan to replace the existing msnbot in October.
Also note that the new Bing Webmaster Tools been completely redone with a bunch of new features (and more features to come).
Bing Webmaster Tools Senior Product Manager Anthony M. Garcia summarizes:
The redesigned Bing Webmaster Tools provide you a simplified, more intuitive experience focused on three key areas: crawl, index and traffic. New features, such as Index Explorer and Submit URLs, provide a more comprehensive view as well as better control over how Bing crawls and indexes your sites. Index Explorer gives you unprecedented access to browse through the Bing index in order to verify which of your directories and pages have been included. Submit URLs gives you the ability to signal which URLs Bing should add to the index. Other new features include: Crawl Issues to view details on redirects, malware, and exclusions encountered while crawling sites; and Block URLs to prevent specific URLs from appearing in Bing search engine results pages. In addition, the new tools take advantage of Microsoft Silverlight 4 to deliver rich charting functionality that will help you quickly analyze up to six months of crawling, indexing, and traffic data. That means more transparency and more control to help you make decisions, which optimize your sites for Bing.

Google real-time results "Latest" Search
"Google real-time results"WHERE IS IT?
If you have heard some SEO expert talks about "Google real-time results"
I think the features is no longer available.I might be wrong but the "the real time result's"column has been removed.
Google is always experimenting new features aimed at improving the search experience.The experiment you're trying to access is no longer available.
It's one of the testing project from google experiments lab .
If you would like to have the most latest results,just hit the"latest" button at the side bar.
New results will appear below as they become available.And there is a " Pause" button for you to stop updating the results page.How sweet is that.
How to get in Google's real-time index you target keywords
Well Google hasn't revealed how the "latest" results are chosen but there are some things that you can take into consideration.
I believe that Google study the text used in the blog post, tweet,fb, etc. to determine the quality of the post. If a post looks like spam, it won't be chosen for the real-time results.
Social network sites and News sites does help,even nofollow link.However Google seems to create profiles of users that are re-tweeted more often than other users. If a Twitter user has many high-authority followers, it's more likely that the tweets will appear in the real-time results.
Google identify spammers by the quality of their followers and the quality of their messages as well,so don't spam,Google getting smarted and smarted nowadays

What is duplicate content from the view of Google?
If you are SEO your blog with Article Spinning,from our previous post,you should know article Spinning software hurt SEO .From the point of blogger or content writer,It's important to know what kind of articles can define as duplicate contents from the view of Search engine especially Google.Previously Google was granted a patent with the name Duplicate document detection in a web crawler system. You can download a PDF version below this post You can download by selecting "save as target" ,then view it with PDF software like Adobe.Back to the topic ,the Google submitted patent explains how a content filter from the search engine can work with a duplicate content server.
What is duplicate content from the view of Google?
The patent contains a definition of duplicate content: "Duplicate documents are documents that have substantially identical content, and in some embodiments wholly identical content, but different document addresses."
The patent describes three scenarios in which duplicate documents are encountered by a web crawler:
1. Two pages, comprising any combination of regular web page(s) and temporary redirect page(s), are duplicate documents if they share the same page content, but have different URLs.
2. Two temporary redirect pages are duplicate documents if they share the same target URL, but have different source URLs.
3. A regular web page and a temporary redirect page are duplicate documents if the URL of the regular web page is the target URL of the temporary redirect page or the content of the regular web page is the same as that of the temporary redirect page.
A permanent redirect page is not directly involved in duplicate document detection because the crawlers are configured not to download the content of the redirecting page.
How does Google detect duplicate content?
According to the patent description, Google's web crawler consults the duplicate content server to check if a found page is a copy of another document. The algorithm then determines which version is the most important version.
Google can use different methods to detect duplicate content. For example, Google might take "content fingerprints" and compare them when a new web page is found.
Interestingly, it's not always the page with the highest PageRank that is chosen as the most important URL for the content:
"In some embodiments, a canonical page of an equivalence class is not necessarily the document that has the highest score (e.g., the highest page rank or other query-independent metric)."
How does this affect your website?
To get high rankings, it is easier to do so with unique content. Try to use as much original content as possible on your web pages.
If your website must use the same content as another website, make sure that your website has better inbound links than the other websites that carry the same content. It's likely that your website will be chosen as the most important URL for the content then.
If your web site has unique content, you don't have to worry about potential duplicate content penalties. Optimize that content for search engines and make sure that your web site has good inbound links. It's hard to outrank a website with good optimized content and many good inbound links.

Article Spinning software Hurt SEO
Do you agree?It's not easy to find info fast and easy from internet compare to the the past few years.Spam contents everywhere..
Nowadays ,the numbers of articles or websites are double that the previous day.But the funny thing is ,we sometimes just have to spend a lot of time to find and figure out the right info that we get ,What happened to the internet? Thanks to "SEO expert" for promoting bunch of money making software and one of the most bizarre software would be : Article Spinning Software.
Sound Good But Not Real Good
Article Spinning software is a tool that spammer use it to spin articles.It is a black hat SEO technique that will lowers the quality of search engine results with low quality content.It made the internet full of spam.Allegedly designed to remix the articles its one and only true purpose is to create link spam in order to promote sites that can’t gain high quality back links naturally.
The marketing hype that surrounds Article Spinning Software is very convincing, and necessarily so, who in their right mind would respond to marketing based on a product that creates spam and turns the user into a spammer the first time they used it.
Sell like Hot Cake
There are bunch of internet marketer says it is good and recommend to you ,What they never told you is they are selling the machine that can generate rubbish to the Internet.Amongst the hype, smokescreens and misdirection’s used to promote article spinning software are claims of creating unique content. This is completely untrue, how can one article that simply paraphrases another be seen as unique.
Spun articles are totally dependent on the ideas and concepts conveyed in the original article. Anyone having the misfortune to read multiple spun articles will learn nothing more than someone who had read only one. What is unique about that? Absolutely nothing!
Anyone who is pro article spinning is probably thinking I have completely missed the point, which is, unique refers to getting the articles seen as unique by search engines. This is done to escape Google´s duplicate content filters, occupy multiple search engine listings and generate multiple links to the spammers money site or splog.
The real point is, article spinning does not take into consideration the needs of the reader or improving their experience it’s purely an exercise in gaining inbound links and gaming search engine algorithms. Unfortunately, this is the text book definition of search engine link spam.
Article Sinning Software is the tool of choice among plagiarists. Plagiarism has reached epidemic proportions online, often legitimate businesses will find low quality spun copies of their own content outranking them or causing their content to be seen as the duplicate and filtered out of the results by Google.
If a spammer steals your content and uploads it to a site that Google deems more authoritative than yours most likely the authoritative site will be seen as the originator and your page will disappear. This is a real danger for both new sites that have gained little authority with search engines and even long established sites with low PageRank.
Do You Hate SPIN Contents?
If you find that your content has been spun or plagiarized report it to Google immediately. Google are currently experimenting with a new algorithm to help find link spam but in the mean time that are seeking your assistance in finding sites that promote link spam. Don’t let them get away with stealing and copying your hard work!
I can stress enough to say that now google has put on your bounce rate when determining your page rank? Good PR will make your target keyword more faster to get indexed,thus ,your bounce rate actually effect your ranking.So keep your content in good shape and kep the Internet clean.You should SEO you blog but not with spammer way.
Nowadays ,the numbers of articles or websites are double that the previous day.But the funny thing is ,we sometimes just have to spend a lot of time to find and figure out the right info that we get ,What happened to the internet? Thanks to "SEO expert" for promoting bunch of money making software and one of the most bizarre software would be : Article Spinning Software.
Sound Good But Not Real Good
Article Spinning software is a tool that spammer use it to spin articles.It is a black hat SEO technique that will lowers the quality of search engine results with low quality content.It made the internet full of spam.Allegedly designed to remix the articles its one and only true purpose is to create link spam in order to promote sites that can’t gain high quality back links naturally.
The marketing hype that surrounds Article Spinning Software is very convincing, and necessarily so, who in their right mind would respond to marketing based on a product that creates spam and turns the user into a spammer the first time they used it.
Sell like Hot Cake
There are bunch of internet marketer says it is good and recommend to you ,What they never told you is they are selling the machine that can generate rubbish to the Internet.Amongst the hype, smokescreens and misdirection’s used to promote article spinning software are claims of creating unique content. This is completely untrue, how can one article that simply paraphrases another be seen as unique.
Spun articles are totally dependent on the ideas and concepts conveyed in the original article. Anyone having the misfortune to read multiple spun articles will learn nothing more than someone who had read only one. What is unique about that? Absolutely nothing!
Anyone who is pro article spinning is probably thinking I have completely missed the point, which is, unique refers to getting the articles seen as unique by search engines. This is done to escape Google´s duplicate content filters, occupy multiple search engine listings and generate multiple links to the spammers money site or splog.
The real point is, article spinning does not take into consideration the needs of the reader or improving their experience it’s purely an exercise in gaining inbound links and gaming search engine algorithms. Unfortunately, this is the text book definition of search engine link spam.
Article Sinning Software is the tool of choice among plagiarists. Plagiarism has reached epidemic proportions online, often legitimate businesses will find low quality spun copies of their own content outranking them or causing their content to be seen as the duplicate and filtered out of the results by Google.
If a spammer steals your content and uploads it to a site that Google deems more authoritative than yours most likely the authoritative site will be seen as the originator and your page will disappear. This is a real danger for both new sites that have gained little authority with search engines and even long established sites with low PageRank.
Do You Hate SPIN Contents?
If you find that your content has been spun or plagiarized report it to Google immediately. Google are currently experimenting with a new algorithm to help find link spam but in the mean time that are seeking your assistance in finding sites that promote link spam. Don’t let them get away with stealing and copying your hard work!
I can stress enough to say that now google has put on your bounce rate when determining your page rank? Good PR will make your target keyword more faster to get indexed,thus ,your bounce rate actually effect your ranking.So keep your content in good shape and kep the Internet clean.You should SEO you blog but not with spammer way.

SEO Take Time
SEO Results Take Time
By Scott Van Achte (c) 2009 Senior SEO, StepForth Web Marketing Inc.
There is one important factor to remember whenever you are involved in improving the organic rankings of a website, and that factor is time. One of the most common questions I receive as an SEO is How long till I start to see results? This article is dedicated to anyone who has ever asked that question.
It doesn't matter what industry you are involved in, or what techniques you follow, in all cases you will be a prisoner of time. In the vast majority of cases search engine rankings don't come over night.
Regardless of the scope of the SEO campaign you are undertaking, you will have to wait for results. It doesn't matter if you are undertaking a massive link building & social media campaign combined with extreme content development - you will still have to wait for those results. Just how long you need to wait however, will depend on a large number of factors.
In this article I will discuss some of these factors and give a few scenarios to help you gauge how long you may need to wait to start seeing results.
Share Your Tips, Insights & Expertise!
Factors to Consider
How long it will take for rankings starts with a few key factors:
How optimized is your site before SEO?
If your established site has no optimization in place at all, and has navigation that is blocking search engine spiders, sometimes opening the site up can result in a rather quick turn-around for results.
How many inbound links does your site have?
If you have an old site with no links, this will add to the time you need to wait. If you have a number of links already, Google will probably be in to check out things within a week or so of updating.
How new is your website?
A brand new site with no links has to wait. Google may find you, but probably not. If you do nothing, your site may not ever be indexed - you must get a few links, and an XML sitemap if you want to stand a chance with a new site. Go here for info on how to install and set up an XML site map.
How flexible is your site?
If your site utilizes a content management system, how flexible is this system for customization? If your current back end will not allow for SEO based changes, this will drastically slow down your ranking progress.
How competitive is your target phrase?
This is huge. The more competitive a target phrase is, the longer you will likely have to wait, and the more links, pages, and fresh content you will probably need. Picking a target phrase that has searches, but modest competition is your best bet to get started. As long as your "dream phrase" is relevant, you can go after the bigger fish once your site has some links, content, and has started to find its place on the map.
Is your site positioned to be able to compete?
Take a look at the top 10 sites for your target phrase. If on average the ranking sites have 10,000 inbound links and 1,000 plus pages, and your site has 7 links and 12 pages, you're likely doomed. You don't need to match the numbers of the top 10, but you do need to be in the ball park. If the top 10 is littered with all the big guys like Amazon, eBay, and the dreaded Wikipedia, you might just want to consider reevaluating your goals. If your site is not in a comparable position with the rest of the top 10, then you need to either step up your efforts in order to compete, or plan on waiting a very long time.
Forget Expensive PPC Advertising - There is an Alternative!
Get Google to Visit Your Site
How long it takes to start seeing results starts with Google. Once Google spiders your site you will still have to wait for the updated cache to appear in Google's index, and in most cases, you will have to wait longer still to see any impact in the search rankings.
In most cases getting Google to your site is relatively easy, but it can sometimes take a month or longer. Even a site with some inbound links and an XML sitemap, may have to wait a while.
Typically an established active website will seldom have to wait more than a month to get Google's eyes; however, if your site has been sitting stagnant for several years, it may take longer.
How Long Will it Take For Rankings?
You now know some of the determining factors, but how long will it take for your site to see an improvement in its organic rankings? I really wish there was a solid answer to this question, but with such a vast array of variables there is no way to know for sure. I can say however, that from experience, the timelines below are fairly accurate.
Niche Industry
A niche industry is represented by phrases that are relatively specific, such as "widgets Bellingham". While they don't require a geographic modifier, phrases focused on a very specific area often are considered niche. Phrases used for a niche site will also often return less than 100,000 results in a Google search. The top 10 ranking sites will also often have less than 100 inbound links each.
Timeline:
- Brand New Site: Possibly as little as a few months
- Established Site: Potentially it could literally be over night, but most likely around 6 weeks.
Medium Industry
Medium Industry terms are slightly more general, but still include some kind of modifier, such as a state or color; "Washington Widgets" or "Blue Widgets". These phrases often represent no more than a few million results in a typical Google search with the top 10 ranking sites having between 100-1,000 inbound links.
Timeline:
- Brand New Site: 6 months to a year
- Established Site: 2-4 months
Highly Competitive Industry
These pages are those with phrases that are rather broad and seldom have any modifiers, such as simply "widgets". You will often find tens or even hundreds of millions of competing pages in Google for your target phrase. Often the links required for the top 10 will be in the thousands, or tens of thousands (sometimes even in the millions).
Timeline:
- Brand New Site: Anywhere from 1 to 5 years
- Established Site: Could be as long as a year or more
For a brand new site, starting with nothing, in most cases you will be looking at around a year before you start to see significant ranking changes. You may get the odd ranking here and there, and start to see some traffic, but for any phrases that are remotely competitive, it can take quite a while. Unless you have a very tight niche, expect to wait at least 6 months before you see any movement at all. This is not to say that you can't get quick results, but in the majority of cases it is quite rare.
For more established sites, rankings tend to come much more quickly. One significant factor in determining time is links. If your established site has lots, but the site itself is simply lacking fundamental SEO or proper navigation, then you can sometimes see results rather quickly. If you have no links and need to build them, it significantly increases the wait time. Even for an established site, achieving links in a competitive industry can still take some time.
Rankings Are Taking Forever
There are a number of reasons why your site may not achieve results. If you find that your campaign has been going on for a long time and you have seen no movement what-so-ever, it is possible that one of the following is hindering your efforts.
Spamming & Penalties
In some cases your site may take forever to achieve rankings, or the rankings may not come at all. If your site has been previously penalized for spamming, you absolutely must clean up all traces of the past dirtiness.
Once the site is entirely cleaned up, then you can apply for re-inclusion. This is certainly no assurance that Google will ever pay your site any attention again, but it's the first step to the land of maybe.
Duplicate Content
If your site has utilized mass amounts of duplicate content, chances are you will not ever see rankings until you replace it all with something original and meaningful. There is no "duplicate content" penalty per-se, but you are essentially penalizing yourself if you copy content. Google tends to look at the first instance it finds online for a piece of content as the official source (not always the case).
If you copy content that is already out there and indexed by Google, they will discount your content as it is already indexed somewhere else, and your site or page will simply not get any rankings for it - and rightfully so.
Links (or lack thereof)
If your site has no links, you probably will not get any rankings, even after you are fully indexed. This is not always the case, I have seen sites rank well for various phrases with zero inbound links - but it is rare, and should not be relied on. Build up your links – period.
On the flip side of this, let's say your site has thousands of links, but they are from free for all sites, link farms, or "bad neighborhoods", and so on - they won't help you. These links won't necessarily hurt you, but will be essentially ignored. You need quality, relevant links.
Competition
You just may be out of your league. If you have a small operation, and are competing for a major ultra competitive term, chances are you won't ever see the light of day. Not to say it is not possible, but if you are competing in a well established industry where literally 10's of thousands of links are required, and your target phrase is experiencing millions of searches a month, you need to weigh your targets. Chances are your keywords need to be re-evaluated as your chances of success are slim.
Not Listening
If your SEO gives you actionable recommendations, follow them. Recommendations are given for a reason, to help you achieve rankings. If you are not willing to implement what is suggested, then your campaign may go nowhere. I have seen websites fail to rank simply because clients ignored recommendations. Your SEO will not be able to help you if you refuse to implement their advice.
A Little Success Story
I have seen rankings come literally within hours. It is very rare but it happens. In one specific example a blog post was put up on a very specific niche topic that had almost no coverage online. Google coincidently spidered the blog within an hour or so of posting, and within an hour from that, the blog post was #1 in the organic results for the most relevant phrase. The site saw a giant spike in traffic for the next couple days while the phrase was a hot topic. (The search phrase was very specific and localized: "election results"). This shows that for a site with an established link base, and a good reputation in Google, rankings can sometimes come extremely quickly.
Regardless of industry and target phrases, you will have to wait for your search results. Just how long you will wait varies on far too many factors to give a solid number, but expect to wait for results anywhere from a few days to several years. It's the best time frame I can give without knowing specific details of your site and project.

6 tricks do more with Bing
6 quick useful tips and tricks that will help you do more with Bing.com.
1. Use the full version of Bing
If you are using Bing outside North America, chances are that you seeing a localized version of Bing that may be missing some features. For instance, the Indian version of Bing.com doesn’t have search history and the image on the Bing home page here is not interactive as in the US version.
To explore the full version of Bing, go to this page and set English – US as your default region. You can now enjoy all the Bing features from anywhere.
2. Track Companies from the IE Favorites Bar
If you search for a company stock (e.g. GOOG or MSFT), Bing will automatically create a web slice for that company which you may then add to IE 8 and track the performance directly from the favorites bar. You need Internet Explorer 8 to try this feature.
3. Watch Preview of Hulu Videos outside US
Hulu hosts some popular popular TV shows but the problem is that you can only watch these videos if your computer has US based IP address.
However, Bing lets you watch shot previews of Hulu video even outside US. Just search for any TV show episode on Bing Videos (see example) and hover the mouse over any of the video thumbnail to watch a short clip.
4. Save and Email search results
With Bing, you can save your search history on to a local folder inside Bing or to your Windows Skydrive account. Alternatively, you may send your search queries to a friend via email or publish them on your Facebook wall via Bing. You’ll need Silverlight to share queries in Bing.
5. RSS Feeds of Search Results
Unlike Google or Yahoo, Bing offers RSS feeds for their web search results that you can subscribe to inside any feed reader. Your browser should be able to auto-detect the RSS feed of Bing pages or you can append &format=rss to any Bing search URL and convert it into a feed.
This RSS feature is not available for Image or Video search in Bing.
6. Find Pages That Link to MP3 Files or Documents
Bing (and Live Search) supports a unique “contains” search operator that lets you find web pages that contain links to particular file types.

PageRank And Subdomain effect on seo
PageRank is on a page-by-page basis.
PageRank will flow immediately
Domain and Subdom-ain
.and /
If a sub domain got high Page Rank, how far it will contribute to the main domain?
PageRank is on a page-by-page basis. The PageRank of a page (on a subdomain or not) is based on the links to it.
PageRank will flow immediately
Sub-Domains are considered as a new site for Search Engines, if a 5 years old site which uses forums.domain.com, www.domain.com now plans to add shop.domain.com and download.domain.com will this take another few years for both new domains to get rank...
Matt Cutts: PageRank is purely at a page level, so if you forums.domain.com has a high PageRank and links to new urls such as download.domain.com, that PageRank will flow immediately.
Domain and Subdom-ain
.and /
Is abc.com/def better or def.abc.com better in terms of Search Engine Positioning?
From a search engine standpoint, both are good - it really is a matter of preference. Depending on what you're trying to do, it may be easier to manage one over the other.
Languages and regional SEO question Answer
Languages and region
Google might not treat original content for different languages content it the same way
Regarding international websites, if you have sites in about 10 different languages, yet they have very different rankings with nearly identical content. Does the googlebot struggle with some languages? What can be done?
Google look at content on a URL by URL basis, so even if you have translated top content from one language to another, Google might not treat it the same way as Google would treat the original content. It's also possible that the translated content is not as relevant as other original content in that language. Generally speaking, making sure that your content is as unique and compelling as possible for the users in that target market is the best thing to do.
Content shows only to certain geolocation
If you have 2 sites, one is domain.com and the other one is domain.au. They share a lot of their content, is there a way to keep the content on both sites without blocking it on either, while ensuring they only show on their respective geo locations?
Answer By Maile Ohye from Google: Hi MG, you're situation sounds pretty good for targeting users globally and specifically in Australia (is that au?). It's helpful that you have separate TLDs. While you can't "ensure" that your content shows only to certain geolocation, you can use some of our features to help. Here are more resources in case you missed them:
So for Australia, domain.au will help with targeting and Webmaster Tools will not be needed.
For other areas -- say Canada, you can use geolation in Webmaster Tools for canada.domain.com or www.domain.com/ca or www.domain.com/canada...
Rank in the various regions
Does a multi-language site have any positive or negative impact in terms of rankings?
Multi-language sites attract a larger group of users, so over time they'll help your site to rank in the various regions that your users come from.
