How to Submit Your Articles or Websites to the Bing Search Engine

Submitting your articles and websites to the Bing search engine allows Bing to include your sites in their index, which is crucial to receiving organic traffic from other Bing users. To submit your articles or websites to Bing, you must provide Bing with the uniform resource locator (URL) for every article or website you want added to their index. You will also have the opportunity to use Bing's webmaster center to track data about your websites; such as the amount of traffic each website receives, and information about the frequency at which Bing crawls your websites for new data. Continue reading this article to learn all about the process for submitting your websites to Bing and using Bing's webmaster center to track data for your websites.
