Bing for Site Search

I have been using Microsoft Bing as my main search provider from both Internet Explorer and Firefox for a while now and I have to say it has been working really well.  I was a bit skeptical at first, mainly because Microsoft search has lagged behind Google for so long. 

I decided to change my blog search to Bing tonight.  I like the way it allows for local searching of a topic but then allows to see results from the web too.  I have done many test searches on this site and it is working great.

Anyone can do the same for a web site for which they can edit HTML and/or JavaScript.  Check out – http://www.bing.com/siteowner to add Bing to a site.

If anyone gets results they didn’t expect or any odd behavior, please let me know.

  • How long actually will a site be indexed by bing. I added my site to bing about 3-4 days ago and until now i still can't find my site :)

  • Bing produces search results that are very similar to Google. I wonder if they borrowed or loaned or stole Google's algo before they they went live :)

  • I agree with you. Bing's search engine index seems to be working much better - better than Yahoo's for sure - it's not as good as Google IMO, but seems to be more user intuitive than the big G. I wonder if the new Yahoo / MSN deal has anything to do with it.
