The New Search Engine: Bing.

Recently all the rave on the Internet is about Bing. Bing recently launched and has attracted quite a crowed curious to see what it's all about. Everyone is asking can Bing overtake Google? Bing certainly won't overtake Google anytime soon-but in time anything is possible.

Bing's results are very different from Google's, and everyone is trying to figure out how to change that. Comparing the results it seems like the following:

Bing likes more authoritative websites-sites that have been around longer.

Backlinks don't matter as much as with Google.

Anchor text links matter more with Bing.

Inbound links matter more with Bing.

Overall, it is still too early to tell how exactly to optimize your site with Bing. It does seem though that the above statements are true. You have to analyze is your site worth optimizing for Bing with not as many people using it as some other heavyweight search engines, or should I wait it out.
