Great insight Bill. I didn't think to look for a difference based on whether the search was specific or general. Thanks for sharing.

I did notice something. The more specific my search terms, the better I liked Google. If I searched for "church" with my home town name or church with my denomination name and home town name I got really different results.

I guess for me, if I'm doing a broad search – I should use Bing. And if I know more precisely what I am looking for – then I should use Google.

It doesn't even seem like Bing is updating their results, and it seems its harder to rank well in Bing than in google.

The overall results are still better in Google, likely because they are better at analyzing the page content.
