Bing has always aimed to help its users make faster, more informed decisions. In its effort to beat Google on its home turf, Microsoft has integrated with Facebook to make its search engine ( Bing ) more relevant and helpful to users. Bing can now access Facebook data and incorporate that data into their search results.
What’s New on Bing’s Search Results? Some of the Main Highlights:
- Bing has now finally acknowledged the value of the research done by search engine optimization experts that 90% of people seek advice from family and friends or called “Friend Effect” as part of the decision making process.
- Bing has now brought the Web’s combined IQ together with the opinions of the people you trust most, to bring about the “Friend Effect” to search.
- Its search results can now be customized to your Facebook profile according to your friends and even the collective Facebook network.
- It now displays what your Facebook friends “like” across the Web, incorporating in your search result annotations and small thumbnails under any link that your friends has liked.
- It also displays very popular pages according to global Facebook ‘Like’ data and anonymous messages from Facebook users on the Bing results under those results.
- Bing has also made it easier to go to Facebook after seeing a search result and to have a “conversation” regarding that search query. This has been done by expanding the Facebook Profile Search, for instance, within Travel Wish List; it is showing Friends who live there and making it easier to share results on Facebook.
- Bing has also integrated Facebook Page in its search result. If the “likes” from your friends are not found in the search result but has a presence on Facebook, its Facebook status updates may appear in search results.
Professional SEOs are now advised to focus more on their Facebook Activities as this can now influence their website’s ranking on Bing’s search results.
