Bing Webmaster Tools (previously the Bing Webmaster Center) is a free service as part of Microsoft's Bing search engine which allows webmasters to add their websites to the Bing index crawler, see their site's performance in Bing (clicks, impressions) and a lot more.
The search engine might make the copy accessible to users. Web crawlers that obey restrictions in robots.txt [2] or meta tags [3] by the site webmaster may not make a cached copy available to search engine users if instructed not to. Search engine cache can be used for crime investigation, [4] legal proceedings [5] and journalism.
When a search engine visits a site, the robots.txt located in the root directory is the first file crawled. The robots.txt file is then parsed and will instruct the robot as to which pages are not to be crawled. As a search engine crawler may keep a cached copy of this file, it may on occasion crawl pages a webmaster does not wish to crawl.
