Google index checker

Google explores millions of websites daily, creating an 'index' for pages that catch its interest. However, not every website is automatically indexed. Google seeks out relevant content and topics to enhance the Search Engine Results Page (SERP) returned in response to users' queries.

This process can leave website owners and webmasters feeling anxious about whether their pages will be indexed on Google. This is where a Google index checker tool becomes invaluable. It enables users to check the indexing status of their pages.

By using our tool, you can instantly determine if your pages are indexed by Google. Our tool empowers you to stay informed about your page's indexing status and conveniently schedule future checks, especially after making updates.

Take control of the indexing process with IndexCheckr and be sure your pages are ready for the digital spotlight.

Our process is quite simple, and the tool’s interface is beginner-friendly, so you’ll have no trouble navigating through it.

Once you sign up, you’ll see a left panel dashboard, and on the right side you’ll have insights into your projects.

To add a project, click on the ‘Add Project’ button at the top right of the dashboard and then follow the prompts:

• Name - enter the name of the project
• Description - add a description of the project (optional)
• Add Pages - the bulk index checker field allows you to manually add specific pages, choose to import via a CSV file or via your own Sitemap
• Recheck Period - choose the period if you want recurring checks
• Email Notification - check the box if you wish to receive an email notification when the added pages are checked

When you fill in all details, just hit the ‘Create’ button, and the project will be visible in your dashboard with scheduled checks for all pages you’ve listed.

To check the status of each page you’ve listed in the project, just click on the project, and a full list of URL items will appear with the following data:

• Creation Date - the date when you added the URL
• Last Check Date - the last time IndexCheckr checked the URL
• Re-Check Period - daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly re-checking cycles (if the option is turned on)
• Status - the status of the URL
• Actions - three types of options you can choose to do

When you conduct a Google index test for your project, the most important data here is Status’. The tool will check the URLs and report the following status:

• Indexed - page is indexed
• Not Indexed - page is not indexed, but other pages on the same domain are
• Domain Not Indexed - no pages on the same domain are indexed

After reviewing the URLs of your projects and identifying those not indexed, the next step is to uncover the reasons behind Google's decision. In some cases, the culprit may be poor backlinks leading to your pages, while in others, it could be a lack of optimization with the right keywords and relevance.

In the latter situation, a thorough analysis of your pages is necessary for optimization. However, if the issue lies with poor backlinks, we have a solution. Utilize our bulk Google index checker tool to create a dedicated project. Input all the backlinks you've received and conduct a comprehensive check to identify links that aren't delivering results. It's crucial to ensure that the pages linking back to your website hold value and are indexed by Google.

So you’ve checked which pages are not indexed, optimized them accordingly, and now it’s time to ask Google to make them visible.

For this step, you’d need the Google Search Console tool where your website is added and verified. Once you’re there, take your URLs and add them in the ‘inspect any URL in’ field at the top of your screen.

The Google indexed pages checker tool will then conduct its own scan and provide you with data about its status. Upon doing so, you will need to click on the ‘Request Indexing’ button.

After that, once another scan is finished, a message will prompt stating ‘your URL is added to a priority crawl queue’.

However, do note that it’s not advisable to do this often and with too many pages on your website. The best practices here are to fix any potential issue with your page or backlinks and then leave it up to Google to re-crawl and index itself.

Yes, adding pages to be indexed by Google is free, although you’d need to use the Google Search Console tool.

With Google Search Console, you can request indexing for the pages you wish to make visible. However, note that you'll need to do this individually, as the tool doesn't support bulk requests.
