    Bing

    Would be nice to have MS new search engine Bing.com added to the mix. Submitting is done pretty easily, but having to do a manual submission frequently will get old quick.

    That will be included in the next version. Also, I think their is a fix posted in the forums to have it ping them.

    Will search for it.

    I looked at that thread and didn't make it past the first post because it was in a different language.... Thanks Michael.

    No biggie, since I couldn't read it I just added it below the one for live.com. I've removed it now, and once again thank you for the help.

    Oddly enough I've only recently heard of Bing.... I kept having it show up on another site that I have the Referred Sites plugin on and wonder what the heck it was.

    How long should I expect to wait before my site starts showing up on Bing? I ask because I started submitting the Sitemap to Bing before I made these changes and still have nothing. Even typing out the entire url as the search returns nothing........ I'm really beginning to dislike Bing.

    Strange, As soon as I Add the sitemap Bing Bots have start visit my site and start index it
    Make Sure you are submitting your sitemap also if all things is right and you are already submit your sitemap Be sure you will see the results in Bing Soon It may take some little time

    I did multiple times now. Apparently I'm submitting the wrong one or type. Which one should I submit?

    Ok, I submitted the right one then. Thanks Marco, perhaps I was getting a little impatient. I see what happens in the next week or two.

    Did that yesterday. Oddly enough after I did that and added the verification meta tag, Bing started crawling my site. So far they've only crawled the index page, but that's a start.
