Bing LogoDuane Forrester announced that Bing has launched their Bing Webmaster Guidelines. The guidelines are in depth and cover a large array of webmaster related topics including:

  • Content
  • Links
  • Social
  • Indexation
  • Technical things
  • SEO topics
  • and more...

It is a great step from Microsoft, although they do have a lot of catching up to do with Google's more detailed webmaster guidelines. But knowing the resources Google has on the webmaster team versus what Microsoft has on their webmaster team - the effort is incredibly impressive.

Also, Bing is offering Bing Webmaster Webinars in the near future. Here are the dates and topics:
