(which is soon to be powered by bing, heaven help us). I can get #1 position in searches for "sarmouni" and "Idries Shah successor" and yet hardly show at all in bing. Looks like they're after authoritative backlinks and these are hard to come by for the "little people". <em><strong>With the greatest respect Eric and not wishing to be rude in any way, Sarmouni and Idries Sha successor are very simple keywords. All you need to do is repeat the term Sarmouni, Idries Sha and the search term, Idries Sha Successor three times on a page of content, stick in a page title something like: Idries Shah, writer, Sufi teacher - Idries Shah successor - Sarmouni, and you would be on the front page of Google in ten minutes. Your issue with Bing isn't lack of links, it's twofold: your site is a sub-domain, which Bing won't rank highly in their algorythm and your site is down more often than it is up. I would suggest you buy Idriesshasuccessor.com and have it professionally hosted, on a reliable host, optimise the page and Bing will rank your website. By the way, I completely agree with your Yahoo and Bing comment Eric - god help us! BM</strong></em> Small sites do really well on google and yahoo!

In Bing for the same search term, foam moulders, again we are in second position on first page for "show all" but we dont appear anywhere for the "Only from United Kingdom" results! Come on Bing! just because we dont have a .co.uk name doesn't mean we are not a UK company! <em><strong>I couldn't agree with you more Duncan. I'm not sure what a foam moulder is, but I'm heading of to your site just now to check it out! Just had a look and noticed you only have the term foam moulders appearing once on the page as a phrase. If foam moulders is an important term for you, Try re-arranging tyour sentances so you can add two more instances of the term on the page and take out a singular instance of foam. It could be enough for you to move one or two places up Google ranking for the term.

For example, sites that have almost all their pages indexed in Google have barely 20% indexed in Bing.Therefore Bing is not seeing most of the web. I wish Microsoft would sort this out - they have millions at their disposal and the brightest people working for them. <em><strong>Lovin your blog Rob!
