Why do you care? You probably don’t give a rats if you’re driving traffic to your web pages via Solo ads or another paid traffic source. But, if you want to get some of the free traffic that search engines can deliver, you might want to get your pages indexed as quickly as possible. I was in a discussion in a Facebook group regarding getting some web pages indexed. The discussion was initiated because the person asking the question had 100 links to their main site on web pages that hadn’t been indexed. That meant that those links were not doing anything for them. Indexing doesn’t mean ranking. It means that the Google or Bing bots have found the page and also the pages the links go to. If the bots don’t find you, then you cannot get indexed or ranked, and with no links to your pages, they cannot find you. So indexing is an essential first step. My experience with the Google Webmaster Tools suggests that indexing is not guaranteed when you use them, but the methods I shared work and work very fast. Pages get indexed in seconds sometimes, minutes often and rarely take more than an hour or two. After that discussion, I decided that there must be others who need the same information. I spent the afternoon putting a small report together, which you can access here https://nomad-productions.convertri.com/spidertickling. It’s a quick read, no-fluff pdf for you. You could have a page indexed in less than an hour. Regards, |
