Bing Webmaster Submit Telegram Bot URL Complete Tutorial: Boost Your tg bot’s Indexing and Ranking on Bing

If your Telegram Bot relies on search engines for organic traffic, proactively submitting URLs to Bing is an often-overlooked but effective operation. Bing’s share in the Chinese-language search market is growing, especially in enterprise and cross-border scenarios, where Bing’s traffic quality is often higher than other search engines. More importantly, Bing’s crawling efficiency for Telegram Bot-related links (such as Bot homepages, diversion links, and customer service pages) is typically lower than Google’s. Proactive submission can significantly shorten indexing time.

This article will guide you step-by-step on how to submit your Telegram Bot URLs via Bing Webmaster Tools, along with best practices and frequently asked questions.

Why Submit Your Telegram Bot URLs to Bing Webmaster?

Bing’s crawling strategy differs from Google’s. Google crawls links from social platforms and instant messaging tools more frequently, while Bing prioritizes content-rich pages. If your Telegram Bot page (such as t.me/yourbot) or diversion link contains only minimal text, Bing may treat it as a low-priority page or even skip crawling it entirely.

Crawling Differences Between Bing and Google for Telegram Bots

Dimension	Google	Bing
Crawling frequency of t.me domains	Higher, especially when pages are referenced by external sites	Lower, unless there are explicit external links pointing to them
Handling of short links/redirect pages	Can handle 302/301 redirects but may reduce weight	Sensitive to redirect chain length; may give up after more than two hops
Indexing speed for Chinese content	Typically 1-3 days	Typically 3-7 days; proactive submission can shorten to 24 hours
Attitude towards pages with little content	May still index but rank very low	May mark as “Discovered - currently not indexed”

The key difference is that Bing relies more on “page substantive content” to decide whether to index. If your Telegram Bot homepage has only one button and one sentence, Bing may consider it not worth indexing. Therefore, proactively submitting URLs along with content optimization is a core method to improve your tg bot’s visibility on Bing.

Which Telegram Bot-Related URLs Are Worth Submitting?

Not all links are worth submitting. The following three types of URLs are top priority:

• Bot homepage (t.me/yourbot): When users search for your Bot’s name, Bing may directly display the homepage.
• Diversion links: For example, the app.tg-staff.com/{code} short link generated by TG-Staff; after indexing, it can track ad attribution data.
• Customer service documentation or help pages: Such as content pages under docs.tg-staff.com/, suitable for batch submission.

Avoid submitting URLs containing user privacy parameters (such as user IDs, session tokens), and do not submit pure redirect pages (e.g., a link with only JavaScript redirect).

Preparation: Register Bing Webmaster Tools and Verify Your Site

Before submitting URLs, you need to have a verified site. Here is the standard process:

1. Register/Login: Use a Microsoft account to log in to Bing Webmaster Tools.
2. Add site: Enter your domain (e.g., tg-staff.com or your Bot’s hosting domain).
3. Verify ownership: Bing offers multiple verification methods. The following two are recommended:
   • DNS record verification: Add a TXT record in your domain’s DNS settings; this is the most stable method.
   • HTML file verification: Download the verification file and upload it to your website’s root directory.
4. Import Google Search Console data: If your domain is already verified in Google Search Console, you can sync it with one click using the “Import” feature in Bing Webmaster, saving repeated setup.

Step-by-Step Guide: Submitting Telegram Bot URLs to Bing

After completing site verification, you can start submitting URLs. Bing offers two submission methods: single URL submission and Sitemap batch submission.

Process for Submitting a Single URL

1. In the left navigation bar of Bing Webmaster, click URL Inspection.
2. Enter the Telegram Bot URL you want to submit (e.g., https://t.me/yourbot or https://app.tg-staff.com/{code}).
3. Click “Inspect URL” and wait for Bing to return the status.
4. If it shows “URL is not in the index,” click the “Request Indexing” button.

Note: Bing imposes a daily limit on single URL submissions (usually up to 10). Once the limit is exceeded, you must wait until the next day for it to reset. Therefore, it is recommended to submit only the most important URLs each day.

Batch Submission via Sitemap (Suitable for Bot Documentation or Blog Pages)

If you have multiple bot-related pages (such as documentation sites or blogs), you can submit them in bulk via a Sitemap:

1. Ensure your site has generated a Sitemap XML file (usually located at https://yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml).
2. In the left navigation bar of Bing Webmaster, click Sitemaps.
3. Enter the full URL of the Sitemap and click “Submit.”

Bing will periodically crawl the URLs in the Sitemap and attempt to index them automatically. This method is suitable for documentation sites, blogs, or sites with multiple bot introduction pages.

Which TG-Staff Related URLs Are Most Valuable to Submit?

Based on actual usage scenarios of TG-Staff, the following URL types are worth prioritizing for submission:

Priority	URL Type	Example	Reason for Submission
High	Bot Main Page	t.me/yourbot	Directly displays the main page when users search for the bot name
High	Redirect Link	app.tg-staff.com/{code}	Once indexed, improves traceability of ad attribution data
Medium	Customer Service Bot Main Page	t.me/tgstaff_robot	Makes it easier for users to find the customer service entry via search engines
Medium	Official Documentation Homepage	docs.tg-staff.com/	Documentation sites typically have high-quality content and are easy to index
Low	Project Console Page	app.tg-staff.com/	Console pages usually require login, so Bing cannot crawl their content

Special Note on Redirect Links: TG-Staff redirect links are publicly accessible short URLs. Bing treats them as ordinary web pages for crawling and indexing. If the landing page of such a link includes a 200-300 word introductory text, the probability of indexing increases significantly.

Submission Frequency and Best Practices

Submitting URLs is not a one-time task but requires ongoing maintenance. The following tips can help improve indexing efficiency:

• Submit core URLs 1-2 times per week: Such as the Bot homepage and diversion links, avoiding repeated submission of the same URL daily.
• Ensure the URL is accessible: Before submission, check that the page returns a 200 status code, has no login wall, and no overly long redirect chains.
• Combine with IndexNow protocol: If your site supports IndexNow (Bing’s real-time push protocol), it can automatically notify Bing to crawl after content updates. TG-Staff’s documentation site already supports IndexNow, but custom pages need to be configured separately.
• Avoid submitting low-quality pages: Purely redirect pages (no text content), duplicate pages, or pages with only a single image may be directly rejected by Bing.

Best practice order: Submit Bot homepage first → then diversion links → finally documentation pages. This allows Bing to crawl your core entry points first, then progressively delve into other pages.

How to Check if Your Telegram Bot URL Has Been Indexed by Bing?

After submission, you need to confirm whether it has been indexed. There are two methods:

1. Use Bing Webmaster’s URL Inspection Tool: Enter the URL, click “Inspect”, and check if the status is “Indexed”. If it shows “Discovered but not indexed”, it means Bing has found the page but hasn’t added it to the index.
2. Use the site: search command: Type site:yourdomain.com or site:t.me/yourbot in the Bing search box to see if results appear. Note that Bing’s indexing results may lag by 24-48 hours.

Common reasons for non-indexing:

• The page lacks high-quality external links: Bing considers the page lacks authority.
• Content is too short: Pages with fewer than 100 words may be ignored.
• Redirect chain is too long: More than two redirects may cause Bing to abandon crawling.
• Page blocked by robots.txt: Check if your robots.txt file mistakenly blocks Bing crawlers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How long does it take for Bing to index a Telegram Bot page?

A: Typically, indexing is completed within 24-72 hours after submission, but if the page content quality is low or there are redirect issues, it may be delayed to 1-2 weeks. It is recommended to regularly check the status in the URL Inspection Tool after submission.

Q: Can TG-Staff’s diversion links be indexed by Bing?

A: Yes. TG-Staff’s diversion links are publicly accessible short links (e.g., app.tg-staff.com/{code}), and Bing treats them as regular web pages for crawling and indexing. However, if the links are frequently redirected or have minimal content, indexing priority may be affected.

Q: After submitting a URL, how often does Bing recrawl for updated content?

A: Bing’s recrawl frequency depends on the page’s importance. Generally, after content updates, submitting via IndexNow or Sitemap can accelerate crawling; without proactive submission, Bing may recrawl only after 1-4 weeks.

Q: Can I submit t.me links to Bing Webmaster?

A: You can submit them, but the t.me domain belongs to Telegram, and you cannot verify ownership of that domain in Bing Webmaster, so you cannot actively request indexing. It is recommended to submit the Bot homepage URL as an external link on your own verified site pages to indirectly improve indexing chances.

Q: What if Bing shows “Discovered but not indexed” after submission?

A: First, check if the page is a pure Bot redirect page (with no substantial text content). Bing may consider it low-quality. It is recommended to add 200-300 words of introductory text and keyword descriptions on the Bot homepage or diversion link landing page, then resubmit the indexing request.
