For else, I prefer the meta tag method. Copy the code (meta tag) from the web page and follow the steps below to verify your site ownership.

Step 1. Log into your Blogger account.

Step 2. Navigate to Template > Edit HTML.

Step 3. Search for <head> tag and paste the code below the <head> tag.

Step 4. Click on the "Save template" button.

Step 5. Now, in the Bing Webmaster Tools, click on the "Verify" button.

  • If you’ve more than one 500 posts, then submit one more sitemap with this code
http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/atom.xml?redirect=false&start-index=501&max-results=500

  • If you’ve more than 1000 posts, then submit one more sitemap with this code
http:/yourblogname.blogspot.com/atom.xml?redirect=false&start-index=1001&max-results=500

It takes up to 3-4 days for the Bing and Yahoo to index your blog posts. In the meanwhile, use the tools in the Webmaster Tools to improve your site. We will soon publish more articles on improving your site's visibility through Webmaster tools. So stay tuned and stay connected.
