Not sure what is going on... This has been going on for days now: http://financemanagement.org/ <--- Bugga'd if i can Submit that url to BING. Anyway know why this can't be submitted ?? MY WEBSITE: http://financemanagement.org/ Code (markup): SUBMIT BING: http://www.bing.com/docs/submit.aspx Code (markup): I can't work out what is wrong with my domain i have worked extremely hard on this site all for nothing, it doesn't even get organic traffic... Would really love some answers as to why it is like this site/domain is invisible to everyone but me ? Thanks, eagerly awaiting some replies. Regards Darren
Yeah looks like we noticed a few faults with bing It works with http://www.domain.com but not http://domain.com It works without www when you dont use http://
I'll be stuffed... i sat on that screen trying for 20 minutes yesterday and another 10 mins today.. and tried without the "http://" Thanks i did manage to get it in then cheers for that..... Problem #2: My site is using WP.. it seems Bing does not like virtual robot.txt files (which is what wordpress generates) WP does not like having a virtual & a real Robots.txt file so it would seem not many WP based sites stand much luck with bing ? I been stressing a little on bing lately wondering how much traffic i am missing out on, the more i read the less i care for bing... everyone seems to be having issues in someway or another, that said i have spent an hour submitting my sites to the BING WEBMASTER TOOLS. Well i guess it's a waiting game now as people are saying it takes forever to get crawled after submitting... hahah i am having a good old sook today
well i have a medical blog running on wordpress using the all in one seo plugin and its in bing so i guess just wait and see they will index your site eventually
bing has also not indexed my site just look putting this in bing site:techmasher.co.cc only sitemap is indexed.
I checked my webmaster tools again and still no sign of BING indexing any of my sites, yet alone even crawling them BING SUCKS !!
I would not be to concerned as long as you are in Google your site should be fine... Especially with the finance niche - not a whole lot of Bing traffic there from my experience...
Why.... Because any extra traffic is good traffic !! and many more people are using BING these days compared to the old MSN search... as like any good webmaster i am trying to gain any extra traffic i can... I am sick to death of "AMATEURS" around DP replying with... build backlinks lmfao this might of been good info 5 years ago, but now it is getting really annoying when every second person replies with "Build More Backlinks" pretending they actually know what they are on about..... I give up, maybe from now on i will keep my mouth shut as i can't be stuffed replying to KNOBS... "Why do i want to submit to bing" come off it why do you think ?? I want to submit to BING so that my toy train set gets used on monday hahahah ahhh i give up around DP
Clearly you don't know what you are doing. "MSNBot automatically indexes pages that meet accepted standards for content, design, and technical implementation." If you have a link to your site from any ... yes any site that Bing crawls then they know about you. That's it. You can not force the issue. Once they know about you that's all it takes. Submitting is a waste of time. You will NOT rank higher by submitting. In some cases it is well known that you will actually rank lower!!! Read SEO BOOK, Search Engine Guide, Planet Ocean, Matt Cutts. So before you start criticizing someone who is actually just trying to help you ... learn something about SEO. 1,000 posts and it's you that is the NOOB!
Don't concentrate on bing too much if your targeting a lot of traffic then concentrate on Google or Yahoo. Forget about Bing.
As i said to other thread that i reply i submitted three times already my url to bing until now for almost 6 months nothing has been index from bing.
