Bing tests new local pack map interfaces

Microsoft Bing is experimenting with redesigned local pack interfaces, focusing on map placements and business listing formats. The updates change how users view local businesses within Bing search results, with some tests placing maps on the right side and others integrating them above listings. The variations suggest Bing is looking to refine user experience, making it easier for searchers to quickly identify and interact with nearby businesses. These tests reflect broader competition with Google Maps and local search visibility, signaling Bing’s push to offer more user-friendly navigation and local discovery tools.
