Here's a pretty good hint.

One is a powerhouse, one isn't even a 'Honorably Mentioned'.

You get listed for a decent term on google and you'll know it right away. You get listed the same term, same spot on the other engines and you may not even notice it in your stats.

Google has seemed to not been the same since the algorithm change. It seems to be controlled by link farms and people trying to rank for words they don't even have the content for. Bing seems to be more straight and narrow. Yahoo is a good bid also.

wich traffic converts better? in the long term will bings traffic be more lucrative than googles ?

google traffic converts better in my experience, although some people will claim different.

as an aside i was just looking for some car info today and the google results were pure garbage. the same yahoo and answer.com answers scraped and filling up all the results. i think their algo update failed.

Bing and Yahoo = $$ on a 1 to 1 ratio.

Google = Volume with 50% buying something.

Wish B & Y were bigger.

I agree, Bing can have great conversions but I'll take 1/2,000 and 20k a day over 1/100 and 200 hits a day.

I agree with the two posters above me.

I agree, I lost position for a keyword, the funny thing is that none of the sites that used to rank for that specific keyword are on the front page anymore. The sites on there arte actually not even targeting that keyword or even have it in the title, meta info or anything. Makes absolutely no sense!

I do agree that Yahoo and Bing traffic seems to convert better but Google still has the volume making it more important.

it seems most are in agreement that google has more traffic but bing converts better..

does that mean ..stick with google until bing traffic picks up or move to bing and secure a place at the top before the tides shift ?
