Yahoo.com SEO Data Now Added to Bing.com SEO Data

In an email released earlier this week, Microsoft announced that its Bing Webmasters Tools program will now include data from Yahoo!. For example, the Impressions and Clicks shown on your Traffic Summary tab will increase as the data from yahoo.com properties are added.

No Change to Your Rankings

Microsoft reminds us that no keyword rankings will be adjusted in the change, this is merely a reporting integration between the two companies. Microsoft has hinted that in the future we will be able to segment data from the two properties, but at this time it is simply combined into one data set.

Bing Webmasters Tools Now Available in 42 Languages

Non-English speaking SEOs can now access Bing Webmasters Tools in their native language, be it Chinese, French, or 40 other languages.
