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 Amazon/Bing/Naver/Seznam.cz/Yandex/Yep indexing and Microsoft Copilot AI citation (which pulls from the Bing index).

Prerequisites

• Run extensions/bing-webmaster/install.sh or install.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> | claude-seo run bing_webmaster.py links <url> | | /seo bing compare <urlA> <urlB> | claude-seo run bing_webmaster.py compare <urlA> <urlB>; both properties must be registered to the API account | | /seo bing submit <url> (single URL) | claude-seo run indexnow_submit.py --host ... --urls <url> | | /seo bing submit-batch <file> | claude-seo run indexnow_submit.py --host ... --urls-file <file> | | /seo bing verify-indexnow | claude-seo run indexnow_submit.py --host ... --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 Amazon/Bing/Naver/Seznam.cz/Yandex/Yep indexing for fresh

URLs.

• The user manages both properties and wants to compare their Bing link data.

For an arbitrary competitor, route to DataForSEO, Moz, or Common Crawl.

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-backlinks which already integrates Bing + Moz + CC.
