Bing indexing

[Artience]

Hello, people~

I want to discuss about Bing indexation.

I have a new web site which opened about 3 months ago.

Google has no problem to index my site and all pages within the site indexed by Google.

However, Bing and Yahoo is different story.

I used manual submission, Bing webmaster tool to let Bing know about the site.

However, Bing is not indexing my site yet.

I researched about it and found that my site should have some external links before I get index by Bing.

I check external links of my site with Google webmaster tool, SEOmoz tool and "link:" on Google.

All tools show different number as below.

• Google webmaster Tool : more than 50

• SEMoz site explorer : 5

• link: on Google: none

Why all method of checking links are different and which on should most depend on?

Also how many links should I have in order to get index by Bing?

Could you people please share your opinion?

It is not unusual for each search engine or differing tools like Open Site Explorer to show differing links. With OSE, moz does not have the resources of Google so they focus on presenting the better or higher value links and typically will show 20 to25% of what you will find in GWMT.

If you could give us a url it would be easier to give you real direction as to why it is not being indexed in Bing. Given that OSE is showing five links, it is odd that Bing would not have indexed the site.

hi,

In my case indexation took around 2 months after my manual submission to bing index. It was a long time of nothing and one day blow up almost all pages in bing index and on very good positions.

Maybe it only need time.
