Why has my website been removed from Bing?
-
my site https://worldunscrambler.net/ is brand new... never registered before I checked the history and can confirm that.....Google index my site but bing gives me an error..
The inspected URL is known to Bing but has some issues which are preventing indexation. We recommend you follow Bing Webmaster Guidelines to increase your chances of indexation.
I don't know why they are doing this to me... I am very frustrated and don't know how to fix that... I contact bing support many times through the search console but they are not replying to me....
if anyone has the solution please please help me out. -
@lindsey-steinkamp My website www.cilacap.info has been running for 3 years this month, but 1 month ago when my website was approved on Bing News, Bing said it had to wait another 2-3 weeks for it to appear on Bing News.
But it's been more than 3 weeks and it doesn't show up and my website was deleted right when my website was approved on bing news.
When asked to Bing I was not satisfied with their explanation, because they said that since the last time my website was crawled it did not comply with Bing standards.

Here is the URL to my website https://myelearnpro.com
Can somebody please check what's wrong with it?
Thank you so much for your time!

I have the same issue. Suddenly I lost my website traffic from bing for this website https://watchinorder.com/
If someone has any fix, so please share.
Thank you. -
I know this is an old thread but recently I am in the same boat. Have used no black hat seo, and fully comply with bing webmaster guidelines. One day stopped getting bing traffic. Looked and my site was no longer listed.
The response from bing was the same "comply with guidelines, we can't tell you more"
After doing some research I have seen that this has happened to thousands of websites, some of which were 20 years old. I've also come to the conclusion there is not much you can do about it besides reach out to bing and hope you get the right site auditor.
In my case it happened immediately after switching from rank math to seopress so it may be seo related. I noticed seopress was indexing categories and tags which maybe what the problem was because then pages get indexes multiple times and it looks like duplicate content.
I've now set them to no index so we will see but I have little hope.

I noticed 3 of the sites listed here has GeneratePress as the theme. I use that theme as well. Makes me wonder if it's the theme causing problems.

Can somebody please check what's wrong with it? I have tried contacting Bing support, but they don't tell me the issue.

Facing same issue. My website is sportshoesnow

Hi Lindsey,
They are not the same, but the contractors from Bing that were behind the quality check at that time could have marked that page as duplicative. I saw that happened on Google. Also, I think the issue could be that these two pages look alike in terms of design, and folks from Bing might think there is no reason to have these two pages in the SERPS because they look very similar. They cannot tell the exact issue because you will reverse engineer the problem.

Hi Ross,
The website you're referencing is the hospital foundation, a non-profit organization that seeks to raise money for the hospital. It is associated with the hospital but is a separate entity, so they aren't one and the same. I do see what you mean by the similarity in website design, but the content itself is very different so I'm not sure that would cause the issue? Thank you for your help.

Hi there,
I believe they think that your website is impersonating this website https://www.pardeehospitalfoundation.org
To be honest they look quite similar. Are those two businesses are own by the same company?

Problems in indexing a website built with Magento
Hi all My name is Riccardo and i work for a web marketing agency. Recently we're having some problem in indexing this website www.farmaermann.it which is based on Magento. In particular considering google web master tools the website sitemap is ok (without any error) and correctly uploaded. However only 72 of 1.772 URL have been indexed; we sent the sitemap on google webmaster tools 8 days ago. We checked the structure of the robots.txt consulting several Magento guides and it looks well structured also.
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | advmedialab
In addition to this we noticed that some pages in google researches have different titles and they do not match the page title defined in Magento backend. To conclude we can not understand if this indexing problems are related to the website sitemap, robots.txt or something else.
Has anybody had the same kind of problems? Thank you all for your time and consideration Riccardo0 -
Duplicate content on recruitment website
Hi everyone, It seems that Panda 4.2 has hit some industries more than others. I just started working on a website, that has no manual action, but the organic traffic has dropped massively in the last few months. Their external linking profile seems to be fine, but I suspect usability issues, especially the duplication may be the reason. The website is a recruitment website in a specific industry only. However, they posts jobs for their clients, that can be very similar, and in the same time they can have 20 jobs with the same title and very similar job descriptions. The website currently have over 200 pages with potential duplicate content. Additionally, these jobs get posted on job portals, with the same content (Happens automatically through a feed). The questions here are: How bad would this be for the website usability, and would it be the reason the traffic went down? Is this the affect of Panda 4.2 that is still rolling What can be done to resolve these issues? Thank you in advance.

Mobile website on a different URL address?
My client has an old eCommerce website that is ranking high in Google. The website is not responsive for mobile devices. The client wants to create a responsive design mobile version of the website and put it on a different URL address. There would be a link on the current page pointing to the external mobile website. Is this approach ok or not? The reason why the client does not want to change the design of the current website is because he does not have the budget to do so and there are a lot of pages that would need to be moved to the new design. Any advice would be appreciated.

Removing index.php
I have question for the community and whether or not this is a good or bad idea. I currently have a Joomla site that displays www.domain.com/index.php in all the URLs with the exception of the home page. I have read that it's better to not have index.php showing in the URL at all. Does it really matter if I have index.php in my URL? I've read that it is a bad practice. I am thinking about installing the sh404SEF component on my site and removing the index.php. However, I rank pretty high for the keywords I want in Google, Bing and Yahoo. All of the URLs that show up in the searches have index.php as part of the URL. Has anyone ever used sh404SEF to remove the index.php and how did you overcome not loosing your search engine links? I don't want an existing search showing www.domain.com/index.php/sales and it not linking to the correct page which would now be www.domain.com/sales. I guess I could insert the proper redirects in the htaccess file. But I was hoping to avoid having every page of my site in the htaccess file for redirecting. Any help or advice appreciated.

Our login pages are being indexed by Google - How do you remove them?
Each of our login pages show up under different subdomains of our website. Currently these are accessible by Google which is a huge competitive advantage for our competitors looking for our client list. We've done a few things to try to rectify the problem: - No index/archive to each login page Robot.txt to all subdomains to block search engines gone into webmaster tools and added the subdomain of one of our bigger clients then requested to remove it from Google (This would be great to do for every subdomain but we have a LOT of clients and it would require tons of backend work to make this happen.) Other than the last option, is there something we can do that will remove subdomains from being viewed from search engines? We know the robots.txt are working since the message on search results say: "A description for this result is not available because of this site's robots.txt – learn more." But we'd like the whole link to disappear.. Any suggestions?
