Default Bing local search

Bing.com just came out and it's already the number two search engine. Whether it'll stay there or not is a debate for another post, but I wanted to make sure you know about Bing Local Search. Go to http://www.bing.com/local and submit your real estate business. So whether Bing takes off or not it's free and the two minutes it takes to sign up is time well spent.

I`ve been Blinged a lot this week as per my GA so it might be worth keeping tabs on as Hotmail are using it in their email search.

Bing has 5% market share as opposed to MSN or Live at .5% or .6%. However, I think Bing according to other SEO guys and searches is great for image search (better than G) and is better than Live or MSN for normal search.

I believe that Yahoo is the number 2 search engine. Also, the reason that Bing is the number #3 search engine is because they used to be MSN.

if yahoo is #2, wouldn't be suprised if bing passed them up in some local markets...again doing a lot of advertising. I took a break and went to a movie yesterday afternoon and sure enough there was bing on the bigscreen....
