Bing just decides to display the body of the 301 redirect. Quite stupid, but there isn’t much that either you or GitHub can do to prevent it. Note the following things though:

  • /Blog is a 404 page, which always works wonky in search engines
  • Sometimes a bit of patience goes a long way
  • Keep up good SEO practice: fill your site with semi-regularly updated original content
  • Nobody really uses Bing
