Submitting pages to an indexer

Learn how to submit individual pages or entire projects to an indexer from IndexCheckr.

Updated this week

Once your account is connected to an indexer (see Connecting IndexCheckr to indexer tools), you can submit pages for indexing directly from within IndexCheckr.

There are two places where you can trigger submissions:

  • From the Projects Overview, using the actions menu for a project

  • From the Pages Report, using the actions menu on individual pages

  • From the Pages Report, by selecting multiple pages and using the bulk actions menu.

The submit to indexer option is only available if:

  • You have connected an indexer

  • The project contains non-indexed pages, or the selected page has not already been submitted.

Submitting from the Projects Overview

From the Projects Overview, you can submit all non-indexed pages of a project in one click using the project actions menu.

Submitting from the Pages Report

From the Pages Report, you can submit pages in two ways:

  • Submit a single page using the actions menu on its row
    โ€‹

    Submit a specific page to an indexer

  • Select multiple pages and use the bulk actions menu to submit them together.
    โ€‹

    Submit multiple pages to be indexed


    Only non-indexed pages are submitted.
    โ€‹

    Confirm submission to the indexer


The project or campaign naming rules defined in the indexer connection settings are applied when submitting pages. After submission, IndexCheckr updates the page to reflect that it has been sent to the indexer.

Indicates that pages have been submitted to an indexer

To see which indexer a page was submitted to and when, place your cursor over the check icon in the Pages Report. This displays the most recent submission (a page can be submitted to multiple indexers over time).

Summary

Submitting pages to an indexer enables you to act quickly on non-indexed URLs and helps improve indexing coverage when used with connected tools.
