Previously, SEO Companies & Experts were always following Google guidelines to find out how our SEO efforts should be. Google always shaped the SEO activities. But now Bing is also in the battle. For First Time, Bing has provided really valuable information for Link Building. Rick DeJarnette of Bing Webmaster Center has shared some dos and don'ts of link-building for Bing. Most of these does not differ too much from advice that Google would give you. It is, however, still always nice to see how they feel, just to clear up any possible confusion.
