SEO-related changes you make on your website are not immediately reflected in search engines. Google<\/b>, for example, normally takes from a few days<\/b> to a few weeks<\/b> to crawl and update this information in the search results.<\/p>

If you haven’t already, learn how to make your website appear on Google<\/a> for broader context on indexing and ranking, and confirm your website’s sitemap is set up<\/a> so Google can crawl your pages efficiently.<\/div>

Request indexing through Google Search Console<\/h2>

Google Search Console<\/a><\/b> is a free-to-use tool developed by Google that will help you speed up the process! To manually request Google to index your website pages, follow the steps below.<\/p>

    \n
  1. Open your Google Search Console account. Insert your domain and click on Continue<\/b>:
    \n\"Google<\/li>\n
  2. Copy the respective TXT record that was provided by Google Search Console (make sure to select the TXT record, not HTML file):
    \n\"Google<\/li>\n
  3. Verify your domain ownership by adding the given TXT record<\/a> <\/b>to your domain’s DNS zone. This can be achieved by going to your Domains tab<\/a><\/b> and clicking on “Manage” button<\/b> for the desired domain. Then, you will click on “DNS \/ NameServers”<\/b> on the left toolbar.

  4. Give the new TXT record 10–15 minutes to spread across all servers worldwide. After 10–15 minutes, go back to Google Search Console and click on Verify<\/b>. You will see the following message once your domain is verified:
    \n\"Google<\/li>\n
  5. Once your website is verified at Google Search Console, click on URL inspection<\/b> on the left. Enter the URL of the page you’d like to index and click on Request indexing<\/b>:
    \n\"Google<\/li>\n<\/ol>
    <\/div>

    Repeat this step for the rest of the URLs you want Google to index.<\/p>

    \n

    The URL should contain WWW only if the WWW prefix<\/a><\/b> is enabled in your website’s general settings in manual mode.<\/p>\n<\/div>
