At SMX Advanced, Bing revealed a preview of its new Webmaster Tools. WebProNews caught up with Eric Gilmore, a Group Product Manager with Bing, who says the new tools were built completely from scratch.

According to Gilmore, the tools are all about design and scale. With the new modern architecture of the tools, Bing wants to give users more data, more relevant information, analytics, and more. Gilmore says the three main areas Bing focused on was crawl, index, and traffic.

In addition, Bing is ensuring a simplified user experience and rich visualizations. Interestingly enough, Gilmore indicates that the feedback from users was very instrumental in the development of the tools. He went on to say that Bing wants to create an “open dialogue” relationship with its users.

“We have a whole bunch of things we want to do, so this is just the beginning,” says Gilmore.

Bing is currently fine-tuning the tools before they are released in the coming weeks. For the latest updates, check out the Webmaster Center blog.

    I hope they do better than their doing with their fance “Local” pages. I’ve been waiting for 4-5 months for them to approve 3 listings on there. I’ve sent feedback twice begging them to please approve them…we got the letters with the PINS and all…they are just sitting there waiting to be turned on. I’m pretty disgusted. They ask for twice the information as Google and Yahoo, and the pages would really be great to have – if they would do their part.

    Bing is on the right track,

  10. Revamped Webmaster Tools should be a big win-win for Bing search. Give us deeper tools to assess with, and we’ll shape our content to fit your user’s eyeballs. Even just the incremental traffic gains from webmasters scouring SERPs should improve Bing’s market share!

    Oh, I’m sure there’ll be webmaster-whining down the road. If we give them deeper metrics, they’ll have the far better tools to ‘reward’ or ‘punish’ sites with. I think they’ll need more than a Meta Tag to do it: Who wants to bet the new BingMaster Tools will require we install a tiny bit of JavaScript?

  12. I have been browsing online greater than three hours these days, but I by no means discovered any interesting article like yours. It’s lovely worth sufficient for me. In my opinion, if all web owners and bloggers made just right content as you probably did, the web will probably be a lot more helpful than ever before.
