Here is a little bit critical situation for my site in Bing indexing, as my site is well indexed in Google and Yahoo but only home page indexed in Bing, what is the reason that all pages not indexed in Bing and what I can do for index all pages of my site in Bing?
Please suggest me, waiting....
What is the URL of the domain? Bing relies on factors such as the amount of quality backlinks your website has when determining how many pages to index. Or if you have a lot of backlinks already, it may have something to do with your HTML code. I would start with validating the site the check for errors. For a validator tool, just Google the words: website validator
Bing has a lot of newer code to it like 1-2 years old and there's still a lot of bugs such as not indexing all pages..You could manually submit the pages not indexed or click your own links spiders may crawl this if you do that.
There could be several reasons for this, including technical issues with your website, poor quality content, or other factors that are affecting how Bing's search engine crawls and indexes your site.
To address this problem, you can take several steps to improve your site's indexing on Bing. First, ensure that your website follows Bing's webmaster guidelines and best practices for search engine optimization. This includes creating high-quality, original content, optimizing meta tags and descriptions, and improving the overall user experience of your site.
Additionally, you can use Bing Webmaster Tools to submit a sitemap of your website, monitor its performance, and identify any crawl errors or issues that may be hindering indexing. Regularly updating and adding new content to your site can also help improve its visibility on Bing.
Using Bing Webmaster Tools can also be beneficial, as it allows you to submit a sitemap of your website, monitor its performance, and identify any crawl errors or issues that may be impeding indexing. Regularly updating and adding fresh content to your site can further enhance its visibility on Bing.
Bing indexing from webmaster tool of bing is possible and it being new search engine from jsut past 2 to 3 yrs and get much more time to index the sites and rank them than it happens with comparison of it with google
Maybe it was just a repetitive page..?
Actually MSN Bot is relatively slow in indexing website don't worry add a site map to Bing Web Master tools, this will help
+1 one on the slowness of the Bing bots! I tend to find them get the inital page, but then it takes a while for it to fully index my sites (including after using webmaster tools!) But I'm not so fussed, as long as Google still loves me!!! :P
i don't like bing personally
it is never a good indexer for me
google is the best
bing always leaves spaces while indexing
it indexes on some factors that we don't know
@YKG is 100% correct. Do you have a web master account? It will make a huge difference in pages indexed vs those found from popularity. The same situation occurs with Yahoo.

Use the bing webmaster tools for Indexing
That's really good choice.
This thread on SEO Mastering discusses the issue of Bing not indexing all pages of a website, which is a common problem that webmasters and SEO professionals encounter. The discussion likely covers potential causes for this issue, such as technical errors, crawling restrictions, or issues with the site's sitemap. It may also offer tips on how to improve indexation and ensure that Bing's crawler can access all the necessary pages of a site.
If Bing isn't indexing all your pages, check for technical blockers (robots.txt, noindex tags), improve content quality, submit a clean sitemap, and use IndexNow to force re-indexing.
