@alex_revelinteractive
Same Problem with my website- www.successbeta.com -
Ok
That is an issue with many websites.Recently https://www.healthcaredeliveries.com/ And https://www.sportsmanfinder.com
These 2 sites had bing related issue.
U need to contact support via bing webmaster. Normally they will not tell u exact reason.
When they reply usually in 10 days. Tell them u really need them. And try to ask person that u did some mistakes in past. Like u did email marketing which was getting marked as spam.
And also tell u did fixes in website.
Just say that u accept ur mistakes and promise them that remove your website from manual actions and promise u will not do any spamming.
If u have luck keep answering to the email and doing follow ups.
That’s the way we got our issue sorted.
That can take a process like 2 months
That is my experience and I am indexed in bing.
Thx

Same problem with https://nightmareSolution.com
Bing constantly crawl the website but for some unknown reason, bing won't index the website.However, everything is fine on the side of Google and Yandex, it takes Less than 24 hours for Google to index a new blog post.
I think the problem is with Bing and not the website?
Anyone here found a solution? -
Has anyone solved this problem? My website is not indexed by Bing either. Everything had been checked. Website: https://www.walkingpad.com/

@bcammo Hey, may I ask you how did you solve your issue and what exactly was wrong?
I got:
Indexed but cannot be served. URL cannot appear on Bing
Last crawl attempted: 04 Aug 2021 at 18:49
Crawl allowed? Yes.
Page Fetch: Successful.
Indexing allowed? Yes.
Index
Canonical URL - -
The inspected URL has been indexed successfully but there are some issues which might prevent us from serving it to our users. Please contact Bing Webmaster support for more detailsI ask support but got 2 generic replies so far telling me that I need to review their guidelines and fix the issues but I don’t know what those issues are. All I see is 2 dash lines in the last line at “Canonical URL” and I don’t know what that means? I am very frustrated because I got no issues at all in Google and MS won’t tell me what is wrong.

Hi
I have same problem. Website is 2 to 3 years old.
Our website is indexed very well on Google and have listing on 1st page of google for many keywords.
However site is not getting indexed on Bing.
We emailed them few times and just a normal reply saying, follow guidelines.
But we have no clue what we need to do.
Error:
Blocked
URL cannot appear on BingWeb site url is: https://www.bulkcheapammo.com
Any one got it fixed? @Moz Any suggestions please?
-
Yes, sorry
I used the form on their support site for the webmaster tools : https://www.bing.com/webmaster/support
Although that doesn't seem to be working at this moment so the email address that it was sent to is :
Hope this helps!
-
Just encase anyone is still having issues with this, or happens to come across this post in the future...
We emailed Bing support who came back and said that they had found their bots were blocked from indexing our site, there was no reason for this but just an error in their system (apparently this is quite common).
They responded pretty quickly and removed the block, a couple of days later we were being indexed and seeing traffic come from Bing!
-
We are having the same issue with one of our sites. We have tried all of the suggestions we can find on the internet.
Submitted out site to Bing webmaster tools, submitted the Sitemap, checked the Robots.txt...
It is now crawling the site but still not indexing any of the pages! The only thing left for us to do is wait and hope that Bing will eventually index it, but it seems weird as its being indexed fine in other search engines and generally getting good search engine rankings for keywords.
The website is www.thriveinlife360.com for reference.
We have a client base of well over 20 websites and all of them are being indexed in Bing, except from this one.
Would be interesting to know how many websites this affects and if there is a pattern within those that Bing doesn't like.
-
This is highly confounding. I've crawled as Bingbot and nothing is in it's way.
There are a few other issues though. You are using the canonical on a large number of pages. In my crawl, I am seeing the crawler going through a large number of pages and only returning a fraction of them. At this moment my crawler is finding 31k things to crawl, has crawled 1044 and returned only 29 pages that might be indexed. 65% of those are without errors.
It is possible that the site structure is causing issues. I suggest taking time to review your site structure and making it easier for bots to find the pages they need to index, telling them what not to crawl (a canonical is a suggestion and should be used when pages are duplicated), and fixing all errors on the site.
-
Thanks, Kate! Unfortunately, we've tried all those idea already too.
- We've contacted ads, but on luck in connection there.
- We've submitted to webmaster tools; the site is getting crawled but not indexed.
- We’ve submitted the sitemap manually, as well.
-
Not seeing anything overtly wrong. I submitted your homepage to Bing for indexing, so we'll see what happens there.
2 other things though.
- You advertise. Get a hold of the ads side and see if they know anything or if they can connect you with anyone. It's a long shot, but worth a try.
- Have you verified your site in Bing Webmaster Tools and submitted your sitemap manually?
-
Yes! The domain is http://www.pamandgela.com/
Thank you!

Can you provide your domain please?

How to use Fetch as Bingbot
Fetch as Bingbot is a very useful tool for troubleshooting. You will find this tool in the Diagnostics & Tools section in the navigation menu. **Fetch as Bingbot **allows you to see exactly what the Bingbot sees when downloading a page from your site. As such, it’s a great tool for determining if a page on your site can be crawled. To use it, simply enter in the URL from your site and click Fetch. This tool will send the request to Bingbot for processing, so it’s normal that it takes a few seconds to run your request. Just below the URL entry form, the URL you requested (along with any previous requests) will be shown. When Bingbot is finished with your request, the status for the URL will change to Completed. To see what Bingbot found at your URL, simply click the **Completed **link and scroll down the page to view the page source that Bingbot found.
SEE WHAT BINGBOT SEES
Fetch as Bingbot shows you exactly what your HTTP Headers and page source look like to Bingbot. Viewing your page’s source in this manner ensures you know exactly what Bingbot is seeing when it crawls the URL. This is especially useful in helping find areas when you want to make sure content can be indexed or in cases where your site may have been compromised and is for example sending different HTML to Bingbot then to users. By scanning through the page source, you could note things like links injected into blog posts or any other manner of additive items you did not place on your website.
Fetch as Bingbot is also a reliable way to test if a URL is being blocked by your robots.txt file. It’s polite, so sending it to fetch a URL blocked via robots.txt will get you a notice explaining that this barrier is in place.
Also, if Fetch as Bingbot is not able to crawl a page because of other blocks or politeness constraints, for example the maximum amount of crawls we are allowed to make in a given time window, the tool will tell you too.
|
NOTE |
| To see the crawled content of a page using the crawlable Ajax protocol using #! notation in the URL, you need to input the static URL instead. The static URL is the URL that contains the ?escaped_fragment= portion. Note that although Bing supports this protocol we do not recommend it for frequent use. |COMMON PROBLEMS
WHAT DOES "REDIRECTION LIMIT REACHED MEAN"?
Unlike the SEO Analyzer tool, Fetch as Bingbot does not follow redirects. Instead it will let you know that the page resulted in a redirect and shows you the HTTP headers it received from your server. The line most commonly starting with HTTP/1.1 shows the status code (301, 302, or in some cases 303 or 307 - see this full list of 3xx status codes) and the location: header shows you where the server tells Bingbot (and other clients) where the redirect should go to. To fetch the page at that location you will need to perform a new fetch using that URL. This is in fact how the Bingbot crawler works: every redirect requires a brand new fetch, and this new fetch does not necessarily happen immediately after encountering the redirect.
WHAT DOES "DOWNLOAD OF ROBOTS.TXT FAILED" MEAN?
When the result of a fetch reads “Download of Robots.txt Failed”, then Bingbot was not able get a proper server response when trying to access your site’s robots.txt. This usually means that your site’s server is configured to refuse Bingbot or the IP addresses from which Bingbot operates a proper connection or simply denies access to this URL. This is a problem, since Bingbot now cannot tell whether or not a robots.txt file actually exists nor read any directives in the robots.txt file should it exist. You should investigate (or ask your ISP to investigate) whether such a configuration is in place.
WHAT DOES "REPRESENT DOWNLOAD NOT ATTEMPTED DUE TO POLITENESS ISSUE" MEAN?
When the result of a fetch reads “Represent download not attempted due to politeness issue”, then Bingbot did not try fetch the page due to restrictions on how much we can crawl the site. This usually means that Bingbot is backing off at this point in time and that it cannot fetch the page "politely", that is, honoring crawl delays or heuristically determined maximum fetches per second for your site. If this issue persists it may point to insufficient bandwidth available to Bingbot to crawl your site efficiently. First, you should check your site's robots.txt for any crawl-delay: directives. Removing or lowering crawl-delay directives can also help with this issue. If there are no crawl-delay directives present, you should check Crawl Control settings to see if they can help improve by setting higher levels (especially during times when you expect fewer visitors).
WHAT DOES "UNEXPECTED ERROR" MEAN?
If you are seeing frequent "Unexpected Error" results in Fetch as Bingbot, this may indicate that our crawler is not able to connect to your server and not getting a server response at all. Your server may be unintentionally blocking Bingbot based on user agent or IP range. To remedy this, look for server configurations or modules that may be dropping connections for Bingbot or work with your ISP to identify whether the issue is on their side.

Specific pages won't index
I have a few pages on my site that Google won't index, and I can't understand why. I've looked into possible issues with Robots, noindex, redirects, canonicals, and Search Console rules. I've got nothing. Example: I want this page to index https://tour.franchisebusinessreview.com/services/franchisee-satisfaction-surveys/ When I Google the full URL, I get results including the non-subdomain homepage, and various pages on the subdomain, including a child page of the page I want, but not the page itself. Any ideas? Thanks for the help!

Google Indexing of Site Map
We recently launched a new site - on June 4th we submitted our site map to google and almost instantly had all 25,000 URL's crawled (yay!). On June 18th, we made some updates to the title & description tags for the majority of pages on our site and added new content to our home page so we submitted a new sitemap. So far the results have been underwhelming and google has indexed a very low number of the updated pages. As a result, only a handful of the new titles and descriptions are showing up on the SERP pages. Any ideas as to why this might be? What are the tricks to having google re-index all of the URLs in a sitemap?

How Does Google's "index" find the location of pages in the "page directory" to return?
This is my understanding of how Google's search works, and I am unsure about one thing in specific: Google continuously crawls websites and stores each page it finds (let's call it "page directory") Google's "page directory" is a cache so it isn't the "live" version of the page Google has separate storage called "the index" which contains all the keywords searched. These keywords in "the index" point to the pages in the "page directory" that contain the same keywords. When someone searches a keyword, that keyword is accessed in the "index" and returns all relevant pages in the "page directory" These returned pages are given ranks based on the algorithm The one part I'm unsure of is how Google's "index" knows the location of relevant pages in the "page directory". The keyword entries in the "index" point to the "page directory" somehow. I'm thinking each page has a url in the "page directory", and the entries in the "index" contain these urls. Since Google's "page directory" is a cache, would the urls be the same as the live website (and would the keywords in the "index" point to these urls)? For example if webpage is found at wwww.website.com/page1, would the "page directory" store this page under that url in Google's cache? The reason I want to discuss this is to know the effects of changing a pages url by understanding how the search process works better.

Website isn't Ranking for Any Keyword
Hi, I launched a playhouses website in april this year and have been steadily link building to it over the past few months. I have gotten all of the internal optimisation correct (that I can see) however it is still not ranking for any keyword and suprinsgly all of our traffic is comming either direct or through bing. The website is showing as being in googles index however it is still not ranking for even the smallest of niche keywords. The only penalty I can see is that we have some spammy blog links that my colleague has gotten which I have been trying to counteract with high quality guest blogging. Any input is welcome the url is http://www.playhouses.co.uk/ Simon

Does Google index XML files?
Does Google or other search engines include XML files in their index? More specifically, I am wondering how Google knows the difference between an xml filetype and an RSS feed.

Why won't google rank my homepage
I have a site that ranks high on the first page for it's main keyword at both Bing and Yahoo but horribly at Google. It's a domain I recently acquired and am in the process of optimizing. My goal is to improve the relevancy for the site in Google so that the site shows up better for it's main keyword. With that said I've been working on building valuable links to the page and I would like some opinions on why the homepage is not ranking for the main keyword. Instead I have a junky content page that is ranking for the term. So in the event that you have a exact match domain showing up very high in Bing and Yahoo but not in Google for the homepage, what factors would you look at? Add in the complexity that a page other than the homepage is making grounds on the exact match keyword having moved up from "not in the top 100" to the 50's, what's my best solution to ranking the homepage? The site is optimized well and most inbound links predominantly point to the homepage.
