Methods of Getting Google to Index Your URL’s (Faster)

Indexation has long been a popular dilemma in an SEO community as we naturally want Google to capture our new URLs quickly, but there’s no sure-fire way to force Google to do that.

Lately Google has been notoriously slower at indexing URLs which has caused an SEO community to try all the old and new ways to get Google to index URLs faster.

To discuss URL indexation Jim Boykin, CEO of Internet Marketing Ninjas, and Ann Smarty, IMN’s analyst, have come together to try and build a list of ways you can try to get your new URL indexed or your existing page re-crawled.

To tell if your Google is indexed by Google:

  • Search for a long sequence of text from that page in quotes
  • Search cache:URL in Google
  • Search site:URL in Google
  • Search Google for inurl:your-url-path-here
  • Check Search Console’s URL Inspection tool

Mind that you may see your page missing using one method but it can appear indexed when you try a different method. That may be due to Google returning results from different databases. It may take some time for Google to populate your URL in all of its databases.

Also, Google continuously stated that even if your page takes quite some time to get indexed, it is not necessarily as sign of anything bad or wrong going on with your site. In a word, it is normal.


To get your page indexed in Google:

  • Open that page in Google Chrome
  • Tweet it
  • Link to it off your site home page
  • Link to it sitewide
  • Link to it from a new blog post
  • Run your URL through Mobile-Friendly tool
  • Load that page in Search Console’s URL Inspection tool. Read more: Ask Google to re-crawl your URLs
  • Add your sitemap to Google Search Console if you haven’t yet
  • Get a link from another site
  • Find a section on your site that tends to get indexed quicker and link off that section to your new URLs

You can certainly try any combination or even all of these methods because there’s no harm in them.

Dan was a delight to work with. I needed a few headshots taken for my LinkedIn profile and Dan provided the easiest and most comfortable experience using state-of-the art equipment in a very professional setting. Also, the turn-around time on results was quick and I felt completely engaged and satisfied during the entire process. I highly recommend his services.Donny RitcharoenDecember 19, 2023

It’s so rare in these times to find one man with so much wow factor and more rare to find men with similar interest and passion in their life journey as myself . Dan Elliott has been introduced to many in what is now considered as the Terror Dome , a place where many dreams are not deferred they are detoured to routes that lead to dead ends , he comes in full of optimism so infectious that he, maybe with out knowing is energizing those who have ventured where others would fear going with just the right jolt to forge on in the way of helping fallen humanity … His various fields of expertise has helped many in my region and I can only imagine the number he has effected beyond those I know … from day one I knew “ this was a man of kindred spirit “ Dan Elliott is a Gem and adds glimmer to things he touches … I’m a Witness ….and eternally grateful….L.Rashaan RichMay 21, 2022

We'd used some other agencies before, but man, they simply knocked us all over. After being in business for 30 years, I wonder how much more business we'd be doing if we'd hired them earlier.Rebecca HoneaMay 17, 2019
