From what I can tell, Bing is very picky in indexing pages, whereas Google will index and ignore them if not up to their standards. I use Bing and DDG and maybe once or twice a week I need to use Google to double check. Bing is more than fine for "most users," but Google has a powerful brand, they have a lot of goodwill and they open their checkbook to buy traffic (Mozilla, Opera, iOS, portals etc.) Edit: All the above (even extra Googlebot servers to index new sites in seconds) are because Google can "monetize better," or has a lot of traffic which in turn attracts advertisers that bid up prices. Google is also shameless in adding dozens of ads in all places so they have lots of money to maintain their status quo. Put Bing or DDG results on Google.com, under the Google logo and very few "regular" people will complain.
