It usually takes about 3 days before Bing and Yahoo! starts to index your blog.
How To Ping Bing and Yahoo!
The word “ping” is a process that informs search engines about your blog links. This is only done when you can confirm that your links are not showing on a search engine. Now, you do not have to ping search engine too often because doing so can over-load their server and you could get penalized for it.
After submission of your blog you can ping once, just to quickly inform them of your blog.
To perform this action, copy any of the links below according your blog’s total post and past it in your browser address bar.
COPY LINK#1 For Posts between 1-500
http://www.bing.com/webmaster/ping.aspx?siteMap=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.BLOGNAME.BLOGSPOT.com%2Fatom.xml%3Fredirect%3Dfalse%26start-index%3D1%26max-results%3D500
COPY LINK#2 For Posts between 5001-1000
http://www.bing.com/webmaster/ping.aspx?siteMap=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.BLOGNAME.BLOGSPOT.com%2Fatom.xml%3Fredirect%3Dfalse%26start-index%3D501%26max-results%3D500
COPY LINK#3 For Posts between 1001-1500
http://www.bing.com/webmaster/ping.aspx?siteMap=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.BLOGNAME.BLOGSPOT.com%2Fatom.xml%3Fredirect%3Dfalse%26start-index%3D1001%26max-results%3D500
HINT: Replace www.BLOGNAME.BLOGSPOT.com with your blog’s url; press enter. After the request has been processed, you would see a message; “Thanks for submitting your sitemap”.
This indicates that you have successfully ping both Bing and Yahoo!
Now, if after waiting 5-days and you do not see your links index in Bing search or Yahoo! search, Ping for one last time and wait for a day. If the links are still not showing up; perform the action below.
1. Remove your Site from BING webmaster tools and re-submit it.
2. PING them just after blog submission.
That should effectively help Bing in indexing your links. Hope this tutorial works for you.

Unfortunately, I have no idea at the moment. But I will do a research on it and publish it as an article only when I have substantial knowledge about it.

Where is the process of submission of site to Yahoo ???

“About two years ago, there was an announcement of a merger between Yahoo! site explorer and Bing webmaster tool. Few months after the announcement, the algorithmic transition to Bing was completed.”
If you read the beginning of the article, you would understand that submitting to Bing means submitting to Yahoo. You don’t have to perform any extra task at the moment. Should this change, I will update the post appropriately.
Thanks for visiting.

Hello Ariful,
You can have Google Adsense and infolinks on the same page. It is not against the ToS of either adnetwork.
On infolinks, Chikita and Amazon. No one is better than each other. It all depends on your targeted audience and what your blog is all about. I suggest you try each of them and see which works for you.
I tried Media.net, Chikita and infolinks but I am guessing that infolinks works best for me amongst the three. You should try all and decided which network to drop and retain. Always remember to read their ToS, so you don’t get penalized.
Do have a nice day friend.

Bing WMT is almost similar to Google WMT, but it takes long time to index in comparison to Google WMT. Well, I would say nice post indeed.
