Instead of directing to my blog, bing directed to this forum

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi,
    Firefox was not working well this morning, so I was logging on to my blog (I will not put the name in this post for reasons I’m about to tell you) via “Bing.” If I used variations of words with my blog–Bing directed people to this forum!
    So instead of learning about the issue which is the subject of my blog–they got to read about font sizes and indenting!
    Very off message.
    How can I correct this. It sounds like I should never mention the name of my blog in a forum post–but do I need to somehow edit the prior posts to remove the name there, also. (not sure how to edit an already published post).

    Thank you.

    Melissa

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    We cannot edit these forum threads – only Staff can.

    You site is new – only 4 weeks old and does not have many Posts – Google and other search engines are still getting used to the idea that you have a blog – this forum has been here for a long time and has a lot of content – you need to write more on your site.

    PS – you do need to have a link to your blog here – that is part of how we make sure you are in the right forum.

    Thank you. I still won’t spell out the name of my blog when I post here (as people can just press my name to the left to get to it).

    I guess I should be glad most people use google and not bing. .. :)
