Get Recommended by Microsoft Copilot

Optimize your presence in Microsoft Copilot across Bing, Edge, Windows, and Microsoft 365 applications.

Why Microsoft Copilot Visibility Matters

Microsoft Copilot is integrated across Microsoft's ecosystem—Bing search, Edge browser, Windows, and Microsoft 365. For B2B companies, this means visibility in the tools that millions of professionals use daily. Copilot pairs Bing's index with large language models, making both traditional Bing SEO and AI optimization important.

How Microsoft Copilot Discovers Content

Copilot combines Bing's search index with large language models. Microsoft documents that it sends a search query to Bing and answers from the results with citations, so bingbot crawls your site for the index, while content structure and authority influence how Copilot recommends and cites sources.

Technical Details

Microsoft documents that Copilot sends web queries to Bing and answers from the results, so bingbot's crawl and Bing indexing decide what Copilot can cite. The NOARCHIVE and NOCACHE meta tags limit how Bing Chat uses a page.
