seo-bing
The non-Google indexing surface. Google still rejects IndexNow (per Gary Illyes, multiple SOTR episodes 2024-2025), so this skill is specifically for Bing/Yandex/Seznam/Naver indexing and Microsoft Copilot AI citation (which pulls from the Bing index).
Prerequisites
- Run
extensions/bing-webmaster/install.shorinstall.ps1. - A Bing Webmaster Tools API key.
- Optional: an IndexNow host key (32+ chars) published at the URL
declared as
INDEXNOW_KEY_LOCATION.
Routing
| Command | Underlying script |
|---|---|
/seo bing links <url> | python scripts/bing_webmaster.py links <url> |
/seo bing compare <urlA> <urlB> | python scripts/bing_webmaster.py compare <urlA> <urlB> |
/seo bing submit <url> (single URL) | python scripts/indexnow_submit.py --host ... --urls <url> |
/seo bing submit-batch <file> | python scripts/indexnow_submit.py --urls-file <file> |
/seo bing verify-indexnow | python scripts/indexnow_submit.py --verify-only |
When this skill applies
- The user is publishing new pages and wants Microsoft Copilot citation eligibility (Bing index ingestion).
- The user wants to nudge Bing/Yandex/Seznam/Naver indexing for fresh URLs.
- The user is doing competitor backlink analysis and wants Bing's unique link data (Bing tracks links Google's API doesn't surface).
Cross-skill delegation
- For Google indexing (very different model — sitemap-driven, no
IndexNow), use
seo-google indexing. - For multi-source backlink confidence weighting, fall back to
seo-backlinkswhich already integrates Bing + Moz + CC.
