Plain English
Many AI search experiences rely on major search indexes like Bing for retrieval. If Bing can't find you, AI answers often can't either.
Why it matters
- Bing powers discovery for multiple AI experiences.
- Poor Bing indexing often means weaker AI visibility.
- Treat Bing SEO basics as part of your GEO foundation.
