robots.txt names your sitemap and it lists 479 URLs; we sampled 9 of them.
Bing Webmaster Tools
No Bing Webmaster Tools verification marker found. The site may still be verified by a DNS record, which we cannot see. If it is not, add it at bing.com/webmasters: URL Inspection is the only place that shows whether a page is in Bing.
What this cannot show
Whether Bing has indexed a page, how often it crawls it or whether it ranks. Only Bing Webmaster Tools (URL Inspection and Search Performance) shows that, and only to the site's owner.
