About Bing Webmaster Tools

Bing Webmaster Tools is Microsoft's counterpart to Google Search Console. After verifying a site, or importing it from Google Search Console, you see search performance in Bing with clicks, impressions and positions, submit sitemaps and URLs, inspect how Bing crawls and indexes pages, and get alerts about crawl errors. It also includes features Google does not offer for free, such as a keyword research tool, a site scan that audits pages for common SEO issues, backlink data, and IndexNow integration for notifying participating search engines about changed pages immediately. Newer reports show performance in AI-powered Bing and Copilot experiences. Because Bing's index also powers other search and AI products, the data is worth more than Bing's share alone suggests. It is free and runs in the browser. Its interface is less polished than paid SEO tools, and coverage is limited to your own verified sites.

Best for: Site owners who want free Bing data, site scans and instant IndexNow submissions.
