click for full sizeLogin to your Bing Webmaster Tools and click on a traffic report, you may notice a spike of twice as much traffic being report from August 13th on. I do.

The reason is because Bing has now incorporated Yahoo traffic and other data directly into the Bing Webmaster Tools.

The numbers that should inflate on these reports include:

  • Impressions – will go up based on combined data numbers
  • Clicks – will go up based on combined data numbers
  • Click Through Rates (CTR) as appropriate from above (change only due to the mathematics involved in the first two items)
