I am writing after months of troubleshooting (though apparently the wrong type of troubleshooting). I've successfully submitted my site, runboston.org in the webmaster tools many months ago, and still my site has not been indexed by the crawlers. I cannot find any errors in the tools section, and I have authenticated my site with both a xml file at root level of my home directory and in the meta tags of my site. Please help.Could you please let me know where the error lies. I do not believe I need to wait any longer for it to show up (as I have read in other forums), as it has literally been MONTHS since my first site submission.Thank you,Jared
I suggest reading over some of our blog posts on link building which could help you. I also suggest taking a look at our crawling/indexing FAQs stickied up at the top of this forum.
Cheers!

Your domain got registered on: 2009-09-24
So you may have submitted your site after this date. Please note that: Bing is quite slow in indexing new sites. One of my sites got indexed in Bing after 4+ months.
Get some quality backlinks: they will help to increase the process of indexing.

Really... over 4 months. That's pretty lame. Thanks for the reply.
Good afternoon,
I am having the same problem. My site (www.anytimedoctor.co.uk) has not been picked up by the Bing crawlers. Should i re-submit?
Thank you in advance.
Despite what the people here have recommended, I don't believe there is a defined posted formula. I own two domain names that point to the same content. I've followed all of the bing steps to get listed on the domain name we consider our primary (runboston.org), but the other domain is the one that appears in bing searches (bostonrunningtours.org)... and I have followed none of the recommended steps on that domain. I've given up on Bing. Good luck to you. If you find out anything helpful, please let me know.

Hi,
I am having the same problems with Bing also.
I submitted 3 sites to Bing on the same day. eezipc.com, tripadvice.org and fromflab2fab.com.
Within a couple of weeks, eezipc.com and fromflab2fab.com were indexed. I didnt do alot of site promotion but when i type in the full name of the site, it shows up. Thats all i need for now.
However, after about 3 months now, tripadvice.org still does not show up. Nothing at all. Its very frustrating.
Even when you search google for tripadvice.org it shows the site, and the twitter and facebook pages as well. Bing shows nothing.
Bing do not reply as all they say is it can take a few months to appear. Ive submitted it twice, with indexes but still nothing.
I guess i just have to wait and hope not too many people are using Bing yet.
It really does not give me confidence in that Bing can compete with Google just yet.
my site www.andhracolleges.com indexed in bing at first , but after some days it has not displayed in serch results., i m using webmaster tools also, my index page has validated and verified by bing but its not displaying in search results. pls help me on this.

The depth of crawl level used for any particular website is based on many factors, including how your site ranks and the architecture of your site.Make sure you are not blocking access to the Bing web crawler, MSNBot, in your robots.txt file or through the use of <meta> tags .Verify that your site is not blocked (using the Summary tool) and that there are no site crawling errors (using the Crawl Issues tool).Submit a Sitemap in the Sitemaps tool of Webmaster Center tools and provide the path to your sitemap.xml file(s) in your robots.txt file

It has taken awhile and I had all but given up but bing has finally indexed our site :)
I have found that it is quicker to add your site link to another site that has already been indexed by Bing and gets crawled regularly. Bing will pick up this new link and should crawl it.
