Anyone else noticing that Bing & Yahoo are delivering widely different results

Anyone else noticing that Bing & Yahoo are delivering widely different results in past week. Prior to that after they started using Bing SE it seemed like they were identical, but no more. I am using RankTracker and getting this on several web sites.

Ever since the Bing-Yahoo allegiance struck up I've been looking at this question- for some of our past and present clients, the results are similar but others do seem to be very different, which is strange if they're sharing the same information and algorithms.

I've tried it logged in and logged out of Bing/Yahoo and can still get variances.

Have to say, I'm not sure why that's happening - but you're definitely not alone in this experience!

I may have missed the obvious here with this one. The results were widely different, not even close. The difference may be that I was logged into Facebook when I ran the software by Link Assistant called Rank Tracker. That skews results if you have liked the site.

I know rank tracker, but you should have your settings such that they don't count you as being 'logged in' to any service. With Google's SPYW and other social integration bits and pieces, the only steady rankings are the logged-out ones.

Being 'logged into facebook' on its own shouldn't mess your rankings even with Rank Tracker.
