Is the Yahoo-Bing change relevant to your website?

According to the latest Com-Score data, Yahoo and Microsoft sites had a combined search market share of 31.6% in June 2010.
Yahoo sites had 3.2 billion search queries and Microsoft sites had 2.2 billion search queries in June 2010. That's a total of 5.4 billion search queries in one month.

Getting visitors from Bing will also make your website less dependent on Google.

How to optimize your web pages for Bing

Optimizing your web pages for Bing is not much different from optimizing your web pages for Google. Just like Google, Bing requires optimized web pages and good inbound links if you want to see your website on the first search result page.
The difference is the weight that Bing puts in the different ranking factors. Things that work well with Google might not have the same effect on Bing and vice-versa.
Here are some tips that will help you to get the best possible results for your website:

• Optimize some pages of your website for Google and other pages of your site for Bing. By targeting the exact algorithm of a search engine, you increase your changes of getting listed on the first result page.
  
  
• Do not optimize the same page for more than one keyphrase. It is much better that a web page is highly relevant to one keyphrase than somewhat relevant to many keyphrases.
  
  
• If possible, optimize each page of your website for a dedicated search engine/keyword combination. The more targeted the optimization, the more likely it is that the web page will be listed in the top results.
