      Does anybody know if Search volume insight in Bing is more accurate than it is in Google?
      Moz is showing Search Volume insight in Bing now (not sure about the reason, probably Moz has no access to Google? Or is it because it is more accurate?)
      For some words I have my doubts about the Google Keyword Tool. I don't know about Bing.
      For the first time I compare two words on Bing with Google I found out the ratio in Bing is very different compared with Google.

      Example:
      When you check out the words: espressomachine and koffiemachine
      **Google, local search in the Netherlands: **
      espressomachine: 6600
      koffiemachine: 8100
      Bing, local search in the Netherlands:
      espressomachine: 549
      koffiemachine: 361

      So..., are Bing users typical kind of users who uses other search phrases?
      Or... is one of these two more accurate?

      Does anybody know?

        Hi there,

        It would not be good to compare the search volume figures of Google and Bing. Looking at the difference in the market share of these two search engines, the search volumes will definitely vary by a large scale. Coming to the accuracy, my experience has been good with both Bing and Google. The search volume numbers that they churn out are based on the queries that they each get respectively and obviously, Google will have a higher number because of its market share. Hope it helps.

        Best,

        Devanur Rafi.

          1. Both Google + Bing should be fairly accurate coming directly from the actual companies data.

          2. So..., are Bing users typical kind of users who uses other search phrases? Could very well be true.

          3. The fact that there in this case and for most people as well about 10x more search volume is definitely part of the issue.

          Hope this helps
