Bing Search Shopping Guides
January 5, 2010 by: adminEver do a search on Bing and see shopping results come up, where one of the links are to a “guides” area? For example, search for [buy coffee maker] and you will see the following results:
There are two “guides” listed here for this query. The first goes to How Stuff Works and the second goes to .
A WebmasterWorld thread asks, how does one get to be placed in these guides. It is a good question, I am not sure. Is it purely algorithmic? Is it from a set database of guides only? I suspect these are trusted sites that are pre-coded to be considered “guides” and thus be listed for matching queries in Bing.
If you know anything more about these Bing shopping guides, let us know.
