Bing Indexing Issue
Posted by on September 7, 2025 at 7:17 amMy one site is not getting indexed on Bing, when I first made it, then it was showing up and doing well but now it's completely gone even with the search "site: mysite" nothing shows.
According to the bing webmaster tools, I get this message
"The inspected URL is known to Bing but has some issues which are preventing indexation"
None of the URLs are getting indexed. All content quality is good and there is no issues with the site or content as a whole.
I contacted bing support but no help.
If my site shows up, I'd do really well on BING but it's not.

Check if same things happen with Google search console as well? Also , make sure your website is not blocked on robots.txt. Few things to check :
Your website doesn’t have thin content.
The internal linking an are well established.
Make some external links points towards your webpages.
Add some fresh content.
Your xml sitemap is well configured. -

I have had several back-and-forth with Bing Technical Support this week.
What a waste of time.
All they say is that they can see the reason why my site is not indexed, but they cannot tell me why.
Here is their verbatim response: “Thank you for your patience during our investigation.
After further review, it appears that your website did not meet the standards set by Bing to remain indexed during its last crawl. To ensure that this was not a false flag, the issue was escalated to the next level, and they manually reviewed your site and confirmed that it is in violation of our webmaster guidelines detailed here: [Bing Webmaster Guidelines](https://www.bing.com/webmaster/help/webmaster-guidelines-30fba23a).
We are unable to provide specifics about these types of issues, as the reports concerning them are unavailable. Please review our [Bing Webmaster Guidelines](https://www.bing.com/webmaster/help/webmaster-guidelines-30fba23a), especially the [Things to Avoid](https://www.bing.com/webmaster/help/webmaster-guidelines-30fba23a#avoid) section and thoroughly check your site for any deliberate or accidental SEO techniques that may have adversely affected your standing in Bing and Bing-powered search results. We will not be able to add your site to index when Bingbot is finding it in violation of [Bing Webmaster Guidelines](https://www.bing.com/webmaster/help/webmaster-guidelines-30fba23a). We have no control over this process, and you will need to make quality changes to your site and wait for Bingbot’s automated crawling process to verify that the site meets the webmaster standards before it can be served.”
My money is on a few “deliberate or accidental SEO techniques”. Pardon me for trying to rank Bing…
I told them that I will not spend 1 more kj trying to index on Bing, and that I will focus on Google.

How you know it’d do well on Bing? Bing tends to favor authority even more, often shows the same sit more than twice in SERP. Unless you have a strong exact match domain, that also tends to be OP in Bing.
For your indexation issue there’s so much possible culprits. Is it pSEO? Repetitive pages?

I’ve had 15 pages deindexed by Bing in the last couple of weeks. A few of the pages were ranking on Bing’s first page, but luckily, they are still on page one on Google. When I check, all are deindexed due to “Content Quality”. But what that means is anyone’s guess, because Bing’s guidelines are so opaque. I’ve tried adding new content, refreshing and updating, but with no luck. It seems to be getting more difficult to please both search engines.
