Does it help with search engine optimization?

Businesses from Google My Business can be imported into your Bing Places account so you can quickly add them to Bing Maps.

You can display ownership verification, name, address, phone number, website address, business hours, and images (photo) from Google My Business.
In the sense that the website address is displayed, you can get a backlink from Bing, and it is registered in the search engine Bing Map, which enables SEM (Search Engine Marketing) and is also exposed in Bing image (photo) search results. It helps.

I tried again on 21.12.30 and Korea is now well brought. The number of supported countries has also increased to 31. (For a list of supported countries, see Supported Countries on Bing Places . ) At least one or two of these 31 countries are imported and Korean ones seem to work. You can only bring 10 pieces, so if there are more than 10 companies, you have to do it repeatedly. Please use it as a local business SEO tool for businesses in Korea. <- The disadvantage is that it can be reached in Japan, but the service is not available in Korea. As of March 15, 2021, only 11 of the 49 companies in the US and Canada were imported successfully.

FAQ

What are the key differences between Google My Business and Bing Places for Business?

Aside from the obvious fact that Bing Places provides Bing local search results and Google My Business uses Google, there are subtle differences in how the two are known to work.

• While both Bing and Google share a common ambition of providing users with the most relevant results for local businesses close to them, Bing’s algorithm considers social cues such as Facebook shares as quality metrics, but Google doesn’t. If you’re a clothing designer, interior stylist or a very visual business like an event venue, this can work to your advantage, especially if you’re already well-established on relevant social networks like Instagram.

• Bing takes high-quality images seriously . You can add up to 100 photos to your listing, 2 of which must be external to your listing. Bing also provides interior images showing details such as seating arrangements, images of high-quality products, images showing awards your business has won, or events you have attended so that visitors have a clear idea of what to expect of your services and events. We suggest adding along with a picture that explains something specific. used equipment. The image size must be at least 480x360px (Google’s minimum image size is much smaller, 250px high x 250px wide). Unlike Google, you can upload images up to 10MB (Google limits 5MB), provided they adhere to the same size.
• On both Bing and Google, reviews are an important part of each business’s local search results, but while Google primarily displays Google reviews, Bing Places for Business displays reviews from third-party sites including Yelp, TripAdvisor, and Facebook.
• You may also notice that the layout used when browsing the list on Bing is different from Google’s. As mentioned above, Bing has invested heavily in visual search over the past few years, which is evident in its more attractive displays. In Bing, local business listings are displayed in the main search results area, making them even more focused (Google also uses boxes, but they are often placed to the right of search results rather than directly integrated into the main list of search results on the desktop). Bing’s display features a strip of images at the top of the list, an outlined box on a contrasting background, a button with an icon to ask for directions or go to a business website, and a scroll for information including reviews, social media links, and top products. Equipped with a possible carousel.

Why should I set up a Bing Places listing for businesses?

There’s no denying that Google is still the dominant search engine, but it’s important to remember that search behavior continues to evolve, and as we’ll discuss below, millions of Internet users use Bing to help them navigate the web.

It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that Google is so advanced that other search engines aren’t worth it. However, Bing, the third most popular search engine after Google and YouTube, is still processing billions of queries each. month. You can use Bing Places listings to trigger some of these clicks, calls, and sales.

Register and manage with a Bing Place agency account (instead of your personal account)

After becoming a Bing agency, Google My BusinessGMB) will not be synced.
It seems that the service will be available in the United States and the United States, so try adding single by selecting multi, single, or chain among upload methods.
Instead of kim @gmail.com registered as agency, try to manage an account starting with a010 @gmail.com by adding a010 **@gmail.com account as an administrator in GMB and importing it.

If you go to the settings (preferences) of the admin page, you can select the synchronization cycle with GMB, so it is judged that synchronization with GMB is possible even in the agency account once registered.
