I have been trying to follow Bings Webmaster suggestion to automate URL submission by using Submission API. But can’t for the life of me figure out how to get it done. I thought it would be easy to figure out but here I am posing the question. Has anyone gotten this done?
My site shows up on Google just fine but not Bing or Yahoo so I am trying to do all I can to get it more visible. This will update Bing when site changes are made faster than just waiting for a crawl to happen.
Bing URL submission API is a way to notify Bing whenever your website content is updated or created, allowing instant crawling, indexing and discovery of your site content https://www.bing.com/webmasters/url-submission-api. To use it in Shopify, you need to follow these steps:
• Create a Bing Webmaster Tools account and verify your site ownership.
• Generate an API key from the Bing Webmaster Tools dashboard.
• Install a Shopify app that supports Bing URL submission API, such as SEO Booster or SEO Manager.
• Configure the app settings with your site URL and API key.
• Submit your URLs to Bing using the app interface or automatically when you update your content.
You can also use the Content Submission API to directly send content to Bing without bingbot crawl https://www.bing.com/webmasters/url-submission-api, but this requires more technical skills and coding knowledge.
