Bing Webmaster Tools is a platform provided to help you understand how Bing & Yahoo interpret your website. The insights they provide you range from search/traffic data, ranking data, crawl and structure errors/analysis, ability to submit URL's, and also offering the ability to submit your sitemap so you can speed up your indexing.
