    Bing tends to favor older and more established domains with a strong backlink profile and a clear niche.
  • Use Webmaster tolls and follow the impressions and clicks, add missing url’s via IndexNow or submit manually (URL Submission)

Always try to write good content and link the good pages where users can read even more. If you write good content links will follow you.

Meta title, meta tags, headings and URL structure

    Bing is more literal and exact-match in its keyword matching than Google. Bing pays more attention to keywords in titles, meta tags, headings and URLs.

Even after reporting these malicious sites and requesting their removal, Bing often fails to take any action.
