What it does

When installed, this skill teaches Claude to handle Bing-related SEO tasks: pulling backlink data from Bing Webmaster Tools, comparing two of your registered sites, and notifying Bing and other participating search engines (such as Yandex, Naver and Seznam.cz) about new or changed URLs through the IndexNow protocol. It also explains that Microsoft Copilot citations draw on the Bing index, so it targets that visibility. It is part of the larger claude-seo extension and runs its helper scripts rather than just giving advice.

Great for

  • Site owners who publish new pages and want them picked up quickly by Bing and other IndexNow-supporting engines
  • SEO specialists managing several of their own properties in Bing Webmaster Tools
  • Developers who want a scripted way to submit URL batches to IndexNow

Skip it if

  • Google indexing, since the skill itself says Google does not use IndexNow and routes those tasks to a different skill
  • Researching arbitrary competitors' backlinks, because Bing data only covers properties registered to your account and the skill points to other tools for that
  • Anyone who cannot safely store API keys, since setup places credentials in a Claude settings file

Try asking

  • “Submit https://example.com/new-guide to IndexNow so Bing picks it up”
  • “Compare the Bing link data for my two registered sites”
  • “Check whether my IndexNow key is verified for this host”
  • “Submit this batch of updated URLs from urls.txt to IndexNow”

Get better results

  • Register and verify both sites in Bing Webmaster Tools before asking for comparisons, since unregistered properties will fail.
  • Use a dedicated Bing API key and an IndexNow key you can rotate, and keep the settings file private.
  • Use the verify-indexnow command first to confirm the key is correctly hosted before submitting large batches.
