Bing is only a small percentage of traffic for me too. They seem to be gaining momentum though; especially in the SEO community.

Interesting. Never used Bing’s webmaster tools, but reading this it’s worth doing that.

Thanks Donna! Most of my clients use Wordpress or Joomla, so that is what I have checked so far. I didn’t find that declaration on any of the Wordpress websites, however it was on “all” of the Joomla websites. If find any other apps I’ll be sure to post them here.

Good find! That could very well have an impact on some people’s rankings. I wonder which other apps besides Joomla do the same kind of thing. Worth checking into.
