Index Now - Instantly Available to Major Search Engines

Graham Havercroft • June 21, 2022

Index Now - the next generation of updating your website.

Index Now is a new protocol that we support in our websites – making search automatic!


IndexNow, the new protocol that aims at making sure that a website’s most recent content is indexed by search engines.

 

IndexNow enables our websites to submit updated content directly to search engines and have the content immediately crawled. This means search engines can update their index and search results with the freshest content.

How it works with our websites.

 

When you publish or update a site or page, our platform will automatically submit it to Bing, Yandex and all other search engines which support IndexNow. This will trigger a crawl from these search engines to update the content in their index, to show it faster to searchers.

 

Our Platform handles all the tasks of supporting the IndexNow API, including:

 

Discovering which pages have updated content and submitting only those to the IndexNow API.

 

Fulfilling IndexNow security measures by generating a unique token per website and submitting that to search engines. (This also ensures that no one can spoof updated content for your site.)

 

Automatically submitting updated content on your site, and don’t forget, with our Platform you are able just to publish by page, making it easier to update your website and not waiting till all of your update / content is ready.

 


You don’t need to lift a finger!


The best news is that you don’t need to do anything at all to take advantage of this improvement. It’s automatic. And as always, if you don’t want your context indexed by search engines, you can turn off indexing in the page settings of each page.
