 * Hi,
 * For the past few days I have been facing the same ‘Ping Bing & Yahoo failed with
   response code: 410’ response on my XML Sitemap whenever I click on the ‘Ping 
   Search Engines’ (please note that the same was reported earlier too)

 * You’re doing nothing wrong. Bing has closed its ping service and switched to 
   another service called IndexNow.
 * Integration of the IndexNow API into the plugin has been added to the feature
   wish list. I cannot promise it for the next release though…

 * Quick tip: to get rid of the error before the next release, deactivate Bing from
   the Ping Services on Settings > Writing.
