To set up and verify your website on Bing Webmaster Tools, follow these key steps:
-
Create a Bing Webmaster Tools account by signing in with a Microsoft, Google, or Facebook account. This simplifies registration by importing your details automatically.
-
Add your website:
- If you already use Google Search Console, you can import your site directly by connecting your Google account.
- Otherwise, enter your website URL manually under the "Add your site manually" section and click Add.
-
Verify your website ownership using one of three methods:
- Upload an XML file to your website’s root directory.
- Add an HTML meta tag to the
<head>section of your homepage. - Add a CNAME record to your DNS configuration.
The HTML meta tag method is common and straightforward: copy the meta tag provided by Bing, then paste it into your website’s
<head>section (this can usually be done via your CMS theme editor or SEO plugin). -
After adding the verification code, return to Bing Webmaster Tools and click Verify. Upon successful verification, your site will be added to your Bing Webmaster Tools dashboard, and you will see a confirmation message.
-
Optionally, submit your XML sitemap to Bing to help the search engine crawl your site more effectively.
Additional notes:
- Verification may take some time, and Bing Webmaster Tools can take up to 48 hours to start showing data after verification.
- For WordPress sites, plugins like All in One SEO can simplify adding the Bing verification meta tag.
This process enables you to monitor your website’s performance on Bing, access SEO tools, and improve your site’s visibility in Bing search results.
