The catty slapping between Google and Microsoft has reach a crescendo today , with Google ’s Amit Singhaltaking to the official Google blogto expand more onyesterday ’s shameful Revelation of Saint John the Divine that Bing is stealing their lookup effect .
Google Caught Bing steal Its hunt outcome
Google Fellow Singhal account how they discovered Microsoft ’s Bing hunt railway locomotive was copy their spelling corrections and topsearch results :
“ We noticed that URLs from Google hunting results would later look in Bing with increasing relative frequency for all kinds of queries : popular queries , rare or unusual queries and misspelled queries . Even search results that we would consider mistakes of our algorithmic program started show up on Bing . ”
As theSearch Engine Land blog reported yesterday , Google then pressed its finger on the sting operation button , fooling Bing into imitate 100 “ celluloid queries , ” as they call them .
Basically , made - up words that no - one would ever in reality look for unless they had a serious showcase of the Fat Finger Disease .
What a surprise it must have been to then see Bing replicating these results only weeks by and by , despite their grade being entirely contrived . Take it off , Singhal :
“ As we see it , this experimentation confirm our suspicion that Bing is using some compounding of :
– Internet Explorer 8 , which can send datum to Microsoft via its Suggested Sites have
– The Bing Toolbar , which can post data via Microsoft ’s Customer Experience Improvement Program
or possibly some other means to direct data to Bing on what masses search for on Google and the Google search results they click . Those solution from Google are then more probable to show up on Bing . Put another elbow room , some Bing results increasingly bet like an incomplete , stale version of Google results - a cheap imitation . ”
Microsoft hasalready statedthat “ we do not copy Google ’s result , ” but is that just a clever way for them to circumvent the spelling - chastisement bullet ? [ Official Google Blog ]
