Great content—No secret here. If you’ve talked to any SEO web design professional worth his or her salt, they’ve told you this. And since Bing displays its search results a little differently than Google, unique content may even be more important in Bing.
A well-structured site—On its info page, Bing makes it clear that a technically efficient and sound Website is key to getting good rankings. That means that your SEO web design code needs to be properly validated, and all your links need to be working. Like other search engines, Bing prefers static URLs over dynamic URLs.
Good inbound links—Maybe even more than Google, Bing likes to see a lot of incoming links from good sites with authority.
Good keyword placement—Be sure that your SEO web design, your page titles, H1 tags, H2 tags and link text contains good, relevant keywords.
Those are the basics. There’s still a lot to learn about Bing, and you can be sure that we’ll let you know about any new Bing tips and tricks. For now, if you want to learn more, you can check out the Bing Webmaster Center for some more SEO web design information.
