Submit Your Site To Yahoo/Bing

This is my second post on making pages index to blogger. The first one was "Indexing Of Pages On Google Made Easy And Fast" You better see that post also.
As you know after Google the largest share of search engines goes to Yahoo and then to bing. Before some years we had to submit our blog/website both to yahoo and bing separately.
Submit your site to yahoo and bing..
With the completion of algorithmic transition to Bing, Yahoo! Search has merged Site Explorer into Bing Webmaster Tools. Webmasters should now be using the Bing Webmaster Tools to ensure that their websites continue to get high quality organic search traffic from Bing and Yahoo!.
But now as yahoo and bing have partnered we have to submit our site to bing only. If we do so our webpages will get indexed in both yahoo and bing. So here's the tutorial on how to do this.
Here we go then;
  • Click here to go to bing's submission site.
  • Scroll down a bit and you will see submission form.
  • Enter your URL there and also the given captcha.
  • After filling up the form click on submit.
Now within weeks your site will become visible. That means it will get indexed in both bing and yahoo.
But by this method it will take more time and it's not sure all the webpage will be indexed or not. So it's better to submit a sitemap.
 
SUBMITTING THE SITEMAP;
  • Sign in to bing webmaster tools.
  • Click on your site on dashboard.
  • On left side click on optimization>sitemap.
  • Then click on add a new sitemap there.
Usually your sitemap of blog is "http://yourblogurl.blogspot/sitemap.xml".
  1. Replace yourblogurl with your own blog url.
  2. If you own a custom domain also then it's necessary to keep .blogspot because .blogspot is the domain from which your sitemap is hosted.
  •  Now your all blog posts will be submitted and it will be automatically refreshed as you write more post. 
But don't think that your webpages will be indexed in a day or two. It takes time. So keep patience and your blog posts will be indexed and believe me you will be getting extremely high organic traffic from both bing and yahoo.
CHEERS!!
