Did you know you can speed up the process of getting your website indexed by directly submitting your URL to Google?
Normally, after publishing a new landing page or content, you wait for Google to crawl and index your pages. Once indexed, they start showing up in search results.
But if your website is small or has low traffic, this process can take weeks—who wants to wait that long?
The solution?
Submit your website URL directly to Google, which is quite simple. You have two main options:
Request a crawl
Submit your sitemap
Requesting a crawl prompts Google to manually scan a specific page. Submitting a sitemap, on the other hand, gives Google a list of all the pages on your site to crawl.
Both methods are effective, and you can choose one depending on your situation.
For instance, if you’ve just published a high-value page and want it indexed quickly, head to Google Search Console and request a crawl. In most cases, Google will index it within a few hours.
