My website cannot be crawled or indexed by Bing's crawler

[cshll]

My website is built with Discourse, and I have optimized the SEO. I also have a sitemap, but Bing has been unable to crawl and index it. How can I fix this?

Can you share the URL of your site? That could help us debug the issue

Does it properly show on Google and other search engines?
What does the bing webmaster tool say?

Is there a way to solve this?

I think the main issue might be that there is no content to index.

Before worrying about SEO, I would make sure to get the community going first

Hmm, that seems reasonable, but I don’t know how to make my website popular. Can you give me some suggestions?

But Bing is sure, will it index my website after I become popular?

[cshll]

Will this really work?

Without a search engine, where will my traffic come from?
