bing SEO Check List

In 2006 I created a document that reviewed the major elements of the different search engine algorithms. In this post I republish the document that was created reviewing 9 points of MSN’s Algorithm. While in 2006 there was no bing and now there is no MSN, so I have applied the MSN points to bing.

Since bing uses the MSN algorithm as its base, this should be only be used for referencing what MSN was like in 2006. Checking the Google algorithm from 2006 you can get a better idea of some of the points that might be added to bing’s algorithm.

I will also publish the Google and Yahoo! algorithms information on separate posts, which are linked to here: Google’s Algorithm & Yahoo’s Algorithm
