I recently came across a discussion on Twitter where I discovered a way to request Google to index a specific page faster. This method can be particularly useful for new websites that want their content to appear in Google search results quickly. If you’re working on a new website, it’s worth giving it a try.
Here are the steps to follow:
-
Make sure you have set up your domain on Google Search Console. If you haven’t done it yet, take the time to do so.
-
Go to the URL Inspection section in Google Search Console.
-
Enter the URL of the page you want to be indexed in the search bar.
-
Press enter, and you will see the following information appear:
-
Click on the “Request indexing” button.
-
Wait for a few seconds, and the indexing request will be processed.
-
Once the request is completed, you will see a confirmation message:
By following these simple steps, you can expedite the indexing process and potentially have your page appear in Google search results much faster.
