About Bingbot

Bingbot is Microsoft's web crawler for Bing Search, whose index also powers several other search and AI products. Microsoft publishes the ranges Bingbot crawls from, which sit inside Microsoft's wider network.

What traffic from Bingbot addresses usually means

Genuine Bingbot traffic is a search engine indexing your site and should normally be allowed. As with other crawlers, the Bingbot user agent is widely spoofed by scrapers, so verify the address rather than trusting the header.

How to verify a Bingbot IP address

A genuine Bingbot address falls inside Microsoft's published Bingbot ranges and passes forward-confirmed reverse DNS: its PTR record ends in search.msn.com and that hostname resolves back to the same address.
