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.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
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.
