BING has dismissed all my websites!
Life with a website is never dull!
Yesterday, I was very pleased to see the blog of Carson, about SSL for all Siterubix websites.
I started to change successfully my aloesvera.siterubix into SSL and went to Bing Webmaster to add the HTTPS version.
My account on Bing is still accessable but there is NO other website listed!
All my other websites are dismissed by Bing, I have to verify them again.
Please, check up your sites in Bing, and look if they are still there!
Re-verify your website
1. add your URL
2. Find your sitemap link - I have Google xml sitemap plugin, my link is there
3. Add the sitemap - complete URL
4. Copy the meta tag
5. past only the numbers in the SEO all in one - update
6. Verify

Thanks for the reminder Loes, I switched to https and clean forgot to verify on the search engines. Oops!

Hi Loes, why is this happening? One of my sites also disappeared, so I checked in AIO settings and there was no Bing code. Did you have the same? Why would the code vanish from the settings?
How long before Bing discovers all the post? I have submitted sitemap and verified everything.
Yes, the Bing code was gone on my websites, I don't know if a WP update has done it. Could very well possible too. Bing can not touch the codes on the websites. And when the verification code is missing and they run a check, they might have deleted the websites from the Bing dashboard.
Thank you, sounds like a very likely scenario. This all is so fragile.
I am glad I caught this, I just let Bing do its job, rarely visit it, now with the new SSL for Siterubix I entered it
Same here, I only take care of Google, the traffic from Bing is very small. But this was an unpleasant experience.
