How do i start ranking on bing?

[garychen19_gmail.com]

can i submit a sitemap to them, like google?

To be very honest if you have submitted an xml sitemap you can submit use it for Bing as well though Bing tool box but I don’t think this activity will help or stop you from ranking in Bing.

Bing crawlers will eventually find your website and will crawl and index it… so letting them know that you exist is great but they will catch you and index you (sooner or later)…

Your question got no specifications but if the case is that you are indexed but not ranking then rules are almost more or less same as it is for Google… build Good content attract valuable links, repeat the process and be a winner.

If you have any specific case please add more details to your question!

Step one: sign up to <cite>www.bing.com/toolbox/webmaster</cite>

Submit a site map and check if the site is indexing correct.

Some areas which bing focus on (similar to Google)

• Backlinks quality, build high quality backlinks.

• Anchor text use on posts - Make sure you have good relevant anchors.

• On page optimization tactics

• Age and authority of the domain, from my analysis Bing treats aged and trusted domains over time more effectively.

• also focus on targeting sites via Yahoo such as yahoo directory.

• work out who is ranking well for terms and reverse engineer what they are doing.

Sign up for Bing Webmaster Tools and submit it in the same way as Google Webmaster Tools, although I have never found a real need to do this as if you are ranking in Google you usually find that your ranking in Bing unless something is seriously wrong and you've blocked Bing bot!

All the above are excellent suggestions - the only one I would add is social media shares, mentions and links of your site and its content. Bing is particularly focused on integrating social media metrics into their ranking algorithm as far as I'm aware, so all of the above plus social media links should help considerably.
