Undoubtedly, Bing has gained reasonable popularity among the world’s renowned search engine and has been giving quite a tough time to the number one contender, Google. Apart from the popularity issues, both of these search engines differ greatly. The major difference between Bing and Google is of assigning different weights to signals. These weights extremely affect the search results. Similarly, Google gives reasonable importance to the website linking as compared to Bing. Google is very good at identifying the most important page of any website and its crawler caches more than 100k web pages.

Google
On the other hand, Google is the world’s number one website. The multinational corporation is an American firm that has been dominating other search engines from a long time. Google was launched as a private company in 1998 but it went local in 2004. The Google crawler is one of the most reliable tools and refreshes the web pages every 24 hours.
Previously, the crawler was limited to 100k but as Google expanded its operation, so did the cache of its crawler. Recently, Google has shifted its headquarter to California. Google has been the innovator in the world of technology. Google Maps is considered the most authentic and reliable source for people wishing to travel different areas.
The billion dollar company Apple uses Google Maps in the iPhone series and has served many people to reach their destination safely. It provides the facility to its users to connect with each other through Gmail or Google Plus.

In China, due to the strictly limited access to international social network, Google is not popular and sometimes the connection goes slowly, not to mention Bing, which is, however, able to visit freely. I wonder why.
