      Hi

      I am getting little or no traffic via Bing.  Why would this be? all my traffic is from Google and social media.

      my site is www.cocoonfxmedia.co.uk

        There could be many reasons.  And this brings up many questions.

        Off the top of my head these include:

        1. Have you set up Bing Webmaster Tools?

        2. If so, what is their evaluation of your site's quality / are they reporting problems?

        3. You have no sitemap.xml file - this should be set up, referenced in the robots.txt file, and for extra measure initially, submitted to Bing. Be sure it's accurate - Bing considers a site problematic if too many links in the sitemap.xml file are broken.

        4. Bing likes sites that have inbound links coming from other sites highly ranked in Bing so do you know if there's any kind of volume of those currently in place? If not, consider that as a goal to work on.

        Those are the things I always have clients start with.  From there you will likely have more information to work with.

          Hi there,

          Bing is all about good, original contents, authoritative inbound links and well structured webpages. If you want to be optimized in Bing, you may want to focus on those.

          Here are some useful information on Bing optimization.

          Hope that helps!
