Not Indexing
WebStemp was connected to Microsoft Bing. I had uploaded my site and it was getting traffic, even a good amount of clicks compared to its first month performance. Then suddenly Bing started deleting my URLs. After that, even though my URLs were still shown as indexed, my articles stopped appearing in Microsoft Bing and I lost all my traffic. Now my site constantly shows as 'Processing 5.' Why am I getting this error and how can it be fixed? trioner.com
Places For Business listing - I don't recall creating one
Hi Guys, long story short, my business details are on Bing, showing my full home address & incorrect trading details. I've been trading since 2005. I don't ever recall setting this up & have tried every login I have ever had for Microsoft but when I try to log in to the Business For Places site regardless of what method or account, it just bounces me back to the Authentication page, hence I cannot even contact support. Has anyone got any idea if you can contact support without being logged in, or any ideas on what I can do. It's rather urgent I get my home address removed asap due to reasons I won't go into publicly but the police have advised I do this as soon as possible.
Issue with IndexNow Automatic Submission Indexing ‘noindex’ Pages
I need some help with Bing Webmaster, specifically the IndexNow API and Wordpress IndexNow plugin. I have outlined my issue here: https://github.com/microsoft/indexnow-wordpress-plugin/issues/60. I am either looking to get in contact with the plugin devs or a 3rd party developer to fork the plugin and add the basic feature I need: exclude URLs of a certain path from being submitted to Bing for indexing. Thanks Reed

Rutificador Chile provides an efficient way to search and manage RUT data, offering a valuable resource for individuals and businesses across Chile. When integrated with Microsoft technologies such as Bing Search, Power BI, and Azure, it can significantly enhance data handling processes. From automating RUT lookups using Azure services to visualizing verified data in Power BI reports, and even using Bing to gather public identity-related information, this combination helps improve data accuracy and streamline operations. In this discussion, we’ll explore how these tools can work together to optimize workflows involving RUT data, reduce manual effort, and support smarter business decisions.Safe search cannot be disabled in the UK
I am in the UK. I am an adult, logged in using an account which is well over 18 years old, in fact it's closer to 25. Every month, I pay you for 365, using a UK credit card in the name of the account, and the account is registered with many utility providers. I am demonstrably over 18. So why can't I disable safe search? - When I try to change the dropdown on the page, it flips back. - When I go to the settings, the option is disabled, Even using a VPN doesn't disable it. That is, unless I sign out. If I sign out: - Then from a UK IP, I cannot disable safe search. - From any other country, there is no problem. It is blatantly obvious this is a UK block. That's fine, if you give adults an override. So how do I override it? How do I verify my age? And clearly this isn't legally necessary because no other search engine does it. So if you can't treat me like an adult without ridiculous workarounds, I'll search elsewhere. Thanks.Suggestion: search articles in a different language
Say I am reading a news article in my native language (Dutch) but would like to search for similar articles in the English language, i.e. articles in English newspapers. Currently I would copy paste the header into Google Translate and copy paste that back into the search box. Suggestion for a translate parameter. Like: Dutch text blah blah translate:en
My Wesbite Got Deindexed from Bing Today
Everything was working fine, and I was getting a lot of traffic from Bing. But suddenly, when I woke up today, I noticed that all my links had been deindexed — there’s no trace of my website on Bing anymore. This happened to me before, about two years ago, and it was only fixed after six months (by contacting support). Now it’s happened again. Does anyone know why this might be happening? I publish unique content daily, and Bing used to index it within 60 seconds.Disappearing Pics and redirects
I'm having issues with pictures i saved in my colleciton, they just show "no picture available" and some of them just redirect to the main page. Does anyone else have that issue? If so, what is the solution? Also, is there a way to restore the pictures? Thank you in advance.Bing & Search in-Private mode
Why is it, when I do a search with bing on my mobile device (phone) while in private mode, the results show up out of private mode? No matter how many times I set it to stay in private mode, it will always show the results out of private mode..... You would think the results would show in-private mode, not out of private mode...

How can we enhance the visibility of our event pages?
AllEvents is an event discovery and ticketing platform, We are seeking to enhance the visibility of our event pages on Bing. Specifically, we would like to know if there are any guidelines or technical recommendations, such as the implementation of event schema markup, that could help improve our search rankings on Bing. We are particularly interested in understanding the best practices for optimizing our event listings to ensure they are more discoverable by users searching for events on Bing. Additionally, we would like to explore whether Bing offers any partnership programs that would allow us to apply directly and become part of the event module partnership with Microsoft Bing. Any detailed insights, resources, or examples of successful implementations on these topics would be greatly appreciated.How to permanently remove specific URLs from bing using bing webmaster tools?
Hi everyone, we’re managing the SEO for our websitehttp:// https://artsoft.pt and we’ve identified a few URLs that we’d like to remove permanently from Bing’s search results. We’re aware of the temporary URL removal feature in Bing Webmaster Tools, and also of the possibility to block URLs using robots.txt. However, our question is: Is there a way to request permanent removal of specific URLs directly within Bing Webmaster Tools, without needing to use robots.txt or meta tags? We’d prefer a method that allows us to manage removals via the Webmaster interface for simplicity and transparency, especially for URLs that are no longer relevant or have been intentionally deindexed. Thanks in advance for your help!Does Windows 7 color management affect Trello when using Windows display calibration.?
Hi Microsoft Community,been using Windows 7 color management settings to improve the accuracy of my monitor colors. I also used the Windows display calibration tool to fine-tune brightness, contrast, and gamma. While everything looks great in native Windows apps, noticed that some web-based tools like Trello seem to reflect these calibrated settings properly. Is there a limitation in how color management is applied to browser-based applications on Windows 7? Or is there any way to force consistent color profiles across all platforms, including Trello and other web services? https://sts-calibration.com/windows-7-display-calibration-ultimate-guide/ Any guidance or technical explanation would be much appreciated!How Accurate and Timely Is Bing at Indexing New Content.?
Hi everyone, been curious about how quickly Bing indexes newly published web content compared to other search engines. Has anyone noticed a typical timeframe from when you publish something to when it appears in Bing search results? Also, are there specific tips or tools within Bing Webmaster that help speed up indexing or improve visibility in search results? love to hear your experiences and any strategies that have worked well for you. Thanks! Looking forward to the discussion.Manual cache on Bing search possible?
There's a site that originally had my name on it, but I no longer want to be associated with as I have left the organization. The site removed my name from the webpage directly, but Bing is still associating my name with the site, even though my name was removed from the webpage. Google updated their searches quickly but for Bing it has been 6 months. I tried to contact Bing to update this, since it's dealing with cached versions of the websites, but I keep getting generic responses about waiting to recrawl automatically. 6 months is a hilariously long time to re-crawl the websites especially for outdated information.Does Yahoo/Microsoft Bing Support Crawling BIBFRAME Data?
Hello, I would like to understand Yahoo/Microsoft Bing's support for crawling BIBFRAME data embedded in webpages. Specifically, I have the following questions: Does Yahoo/Microsoft Bing currently support crawling and indexing BIBFRAME content? If so, what are the requirements for proper indexing? How does Yahoo/Microsoft Bing advise to implement the BIBRAME in the webpages? Which version(s) of BIBFRAME does Yahoo/Microsoft Bing support? When searching for books, which keywords within the BIBFRAME structure can be used to retrieve the correct book URL? Is there an official test site or tool available to verify whether Yahoo/Microsoft Bing has indexed my BIBFRAME content? If BIBFRAME is not currently supported, does Yahoo/Microsoft Bing have any plans or a timeline for future support? What would be the best alternative to BIBFRAME for ensuring compatibility with Yahoo/Microsoft Bing's indexing system? Additionally, I would like to ask: Are there any recommended best practices to improve BIBFRAME indexing in Yahoo/Microsoft Bing Search? Can BIBFRAME be effectively used in combination with Schema.org to enhance visibility in search results? Are there any third-party tools or APIs available to test whether BIBFRAME data has been successfully crawled and indexed? Have libraries or academic institutions demonstrated successful implementations of BIBFRAME within Yahoo/Microsoft Bing's search ecosystem? If so, are there any case studies or examples? I would appreciate any insights or official documentation related to these questions. Thank you!
