    Hi Everyone,

    The problem is like my site got indexed in Google and Other search engines. But in Bing the site got deindexed two years back. I was trying to make it get indexed in Bing by submitting XML sitemap in Webmaster tools of Bing.

    But the issue is like the website ip got indexed in Bing and getting listed Instead of Domain name. So pls let me know how to recover it and make my domain name get cached.

    Regards,
    Massjo

    If you are accessing your site using IP, is it redirecting to the domain? If not, it should. Look for IP Canonicalization on the internet.

    You should make a permanent redirection to your main domain (i.e. www.example.com), if the domains does not match (i.e. is example.com or 11.22.33.44).

    It is made differently in different webservers.

    For Apache, should be something like below in your .htaccess file:

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.example.com
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [R=permanent,L]
