Good starter points from and the follow-ups here. For anyone landing on this thread years later: Bing’s priorities focus on relevance, quality/credibility, user engagement, freshness and page performance — these matter more than domain age or chasing exact‑match anchors. Treat each page as a single, clear answer to a user intent and measure engagement to spot underperformers. (bing.com)

Don’t just “submit a sitemap” — make it useful. Implement IndexNow so search engines learn about real changes instantly (anonymous sitemap pings were deprecated). List sitemaps in robots.txt as a fallback, keep the <lastmod> timestamps accurate (Bing uses them to prioritize crawling), and split or compress sitemaps when they approach URL or size limits. Updating meaningful <lastmod> values daily helps crawl efficiency. (blogs.bing.com)

Use structured data and publisher controls. Bing supports Schema.org JSON‑LD and provides a markup validator to check eligibility for enhanced results; validate JSON‑LD after deployment. If concerned about how content is used in generative or chat results, apply the NOARCHIVE / NOCACHE meta tags (or the bingbot nocache directive) to express publisher preferences. (blogs.bing.com)

Practical triage and link policy: use Bing Webmaster Tools (URL Inspection, Site Scan, Backlink Insights, Crawl Control and Recommendations/Copilot) to find blocked resources, 4xx/5xx issues, duplicate content, and weak internal linking. Note the Disavow tool was removed in 2023 — focus on removing low‑value pages, fixing canonicalization, and earning editorial links rather than relying on a disavow workflow. Prioritize page speed, mobile UX and clear canonical signals to avoid diluted visibility. (blogs.bing.com)

Robots / meta examples (replace example.com with your domain):

# robots.txt (root)
User-agent: *
Disallow: /staging/
Sitemap: https://example.com/sitemap.xml
<!-- control reuse in Bing Chat -->
<meta name="robots" content="noarchive, nocache">
<meta name="bingbot" content="nocache">

thanks for nice tips, but what does "Generate Backlink From Bing" mean? :)

Very Nice

SNIP

Nice tips.It will help me.Thanks for sharing

As far as I know bing gives importance in
-Having an older domain age
-Having inbound links from websites that included the primary keyword in the referring site’s title tags- in other words, building inbound links from other SEOd sites and directories as opposed to being from just anywhere.

Don't hit me for being too obvious here, but don't all the major Search Engines pretty much tend to follow one another? This is different if you're trying to target local ads or whatnot such as in Google, but either way.

You might also try looking on Bng tiself for pages it has indexed and getting backlinks from there.

Bing looks to have the same SO tips as Google.
