Why has my website been removed from Bing?
-
my site https://worldunscrambler.net/ is brand new... never registered before I checked the history and can confirm that.....Google index my site but bing gives me an error..
The inspected URL is known to Bing but has some issues which are preventing indexation. We recommend you follow Bing Webmaster Guidelines to increase your chances of indexation.
I don't know why they are doing this to me... I am very frustrated and don't know how to fix that... I contact bing support many times through the search console but they are not replying to me....
if anyone has the solution please please help me out.

@lindsey-steinkamp My website www.cilacap.info has been running for 3 years this month, but 1 month ago when my website was approved on Bing News, Bing said it had to wait another 2-3 weeks for it to appear on Bing News.
But it's been more than 3 weeks and it doesn't show up and my website was deleted right when my website was approved on bing news.
When asked to Bing I was not satisfied with their explanation, because they said that since the last time my website was crawled it did not comply with Bing standards.

I know this is an old thread but recently I am in the same boat. Have used no black hat seo, and fully comply with bing webmaster guidelines. One day stopped getting bing traffic. Looked and my site was no longer listed.
The response from bing was the same "comply with guidelines, we can't tell you more"
After doing some research I have seen that this has happened to thousands of websites, some of which were 20 years old. I've also come to the conclusion there is not much you can do about it besides reach out to bing and hope you get the right site auditor.
In my case it happened immediately after switching from rank math to seopress so it may be seo related. I noticed seopress was indexing categories and tags which maybe what the problem was because then pages get indexes multiple times and it looks like duplicate content.
I've now set them to no index so we will see but I have little hope.

I noticed 3 of the sites listed here has GeneratePress as the theme. I use that theme as well. Makes me wonder if it's the theme causing problems.

Can somebody please check what's wrong with it? I have tried contacting Bing support, but they don't tell me the issue.
Thank you so much for your time!

Hi Lindsey,
They are not the same, but the contractors from Bing that were behind the quality check at that time could have marked that page as duplicative. I saw that happened on Google. Also, I think the issue could be that these two pages look alike in terms of design, and folks from Bing might think there is no reason to have these two pages in the SERPS because they look very similar. They cannot tell the exact issue because you will reverse engineer the problem.

Hi Ross,
The website you're referencing is the hospital foundation, a non-profit organization that seeks to raise money for the hospital. It is associated with the hospital but is a separate entity, so they aren't one and the same. I do see what you mean by the similarity in website design, but the content itself is very different so I'm not sure that would cause the issue? Thank you for your help.

Hi there,
I believe they think that your website is impersonating this website https://www.pardeehospitalfoundation.org
To be honest they look quite similar. Are those two businesses are own by the same company?

Why is Amazon crawling my website? Is this hurting us?
Hi mozzers, I discovered that Amazon is crawling our site and exploring thousands of profile pages. In a single day it crawled 75k profile pages. Is this related to AWS? Is this something we should worry about or not? If so what could be a solution to counter this? Could this affect our Google Analytics organic traffic?

Removing the Trailing Slash in Magento
Hi guys, We have noticed trailing slash vs non-trailing slash duplication on one of our sites. Example:
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | Aug 6, 2019, 5:13 AM | brandonegroup
Duplicate: https://www.example.com.au/living/
Preferred: https://www.example.com.au/living So, SEO-wise, we suggested placing a canonical tag on all trailing slash pointing to non-trailing slash. However, devs have advised against removing the trailing slash from some URLs with a blanket rule, as this may break functionality in Magento that depends on the trailing slash. The full site would need to be tested after implementing a blanket rewrite rule. Is any other way to address this trailing slash duplication issue without breaking anything in Magento? Keen to hear from you guys. Cheers,0 -
Moving half my website to a new website: 301?
Good Morning! We currently have two websites which are driving all of our traffic. Our end goal is to combine the two and fold them into each other. Can I redirect the duplicate content from one domain to our main domain even though the URL's are different. Ill give an example below. (The domains are not the real domains). The CEO does not want to remove the other website entirely yet, but is willing to begin some sort of consolidation process. ABCaddiction.com is the main domain which covers everything from drug addiction to dual diagnosis treatment. ABCdualdiagnosis.com is our secondary website which covers everything as well. Can I redirect the entire drug addiction half of the website to ABCaddiction.com? With the eventual goal of moving everything together.

Dev Subdomain Pages Indexed - How to Remove
I own a website (domain.com) and used the subdomain "dev.domain.com" while adding a new section to the site (as a development link). I forgot to block the dev.domain.com in my robots file, and google indexed all of the dev pages (around 100 of them). I blocked the site (dev.domain.com) in robots, and then proceeded to just delete the entire subdomain altogether. It's been about a week now and I still see the subdomain pages indexed on Google. How do I get these pages removed from Google? Are they causing duplicate content/title issues, or does Google know that it's a development subdomain and it's just taking time for them to recognize that I deleted it already?

Moving Content To Another Website With No Redirect?
I've got a website that has lots of valuable content and tools but it's been hit too hard by both Panda and Penguin. I came to the conclusion that I'd be better off with a new website as this one is going to hell no matter how much time and money I put in it. Had I started a new website the first time it got hit by Penguin, I'd be profitable today. I'd like to move some of that content to this other domain but I don't want to do 301 redirects as I don't want to pass bad link juice. I know I'll lose all links and visitors to the original website but I don't care. My only concern is duplicate content. I was thinking of setting the pages to noindex on the original website and wait until they don't appear in Google's index. Then I'd move them over to the new domain to be indexed again. Do you see any problem with this? Should I rewrite everything instead? I hate spinning content...!

New Website Launch - Traffic Way Down
We launched a new website in June. Traffic plummeted after the launch, we crept back up for a couple of months, but now we are flat, nowhere near our pre-launch traffic or previous year's traffic. For the past 6 months our analytics have been worrying us - Overall traffic and new visitor traffic is down over 10%, bounce rate is up almost 35% since site launched, keywords aren't ranking where they used to, and of course, web sales are down. Is this supposed to happen when a new site is launched, and how long does a new this transition last? We have done all the technical audits, adding relevant content, we're at a loss. Any suggestions where to look next to improve traffic to pre-launch numbers?
