Bing says we don't exist.


The Austin Hifi Blog is hosted by Google's Blogger service, so it's no surprise that Google can find the blog in a jiffy. We thought we'd see how easily Microsoft's Bing search engine can find The Austin Hifi Blog.

It seems that Bing can't find it at all. We tried several combinations of search terms, but no go. Bing can't even find The Austin Hifi Blog when we enter the url in the search window. Is it possible that Google and Bing have such incredibly different search algorithms, or is there some skewing going on?

And by the way, Yahoo can't find The Austin Hifi Blog either. Hmm.

edit: to be fair, Bing now says we exist.

  1. There's not much you can expect from Bing. We tried a while back to find the website for the Daytona Speedway by typing in "Daytona International Speedway". Bing didn't list anything having to do with Daytona on the first page instead giving listings for speedways near Dayton, OH!
