Setting up your first project

Learn how to set up your first project in IndexCheckr and add pages manually, via CSV, or from a sitemap.

To monitor pages over time with IndexCheckr, you create a project. Projects help you group and organize the pages you want to monitor by site, client, or campaign.

💡 Tip: Just want to know right now whether a list of URLs is indexed? Use Quick Check: no project needed.

Creating a project

Go to the Projects Overview and click the Add project button.

Create your first project

You’ll be asked to:

  • Enter a project name (required)

  • Optionally add a description

  • Optionally add pages to the project by copying and pasting, importing from a CSV file, or using an XML sitemap

The form includes three tabs for adding pages:

Choose the between copy pasting, CSV import, and XML sitemap import to add pages

  • Paste URLs: copy-paste one or more URLs

  • CSV import: upload a CSV file with your URLs

  • Sitemap: enter the URL of an XML sitemap

When adding pages, you can configure:

  • The recheck period: none, daily, weekly, biweekly, or monthly

  • Stop checking when pages get indexed, to automatically stop rechecks once a page is confirmed indexed

  • An email notification when these pages have been checked

See Adding pages to a project for more details.

Once created, the project will appear in your list. If you’ve added pages, IndexCheckr will immediately start checking their status.

Each check uses one credit. New accounts get 50 free credits to try IndexCheckr. For more information about credits, please refer to the FAQ.

Organizing pages with tags

Inside a project, you can label pages with tags, for example by client, campaign or type of link, and then filter and act on them as a group. Tags are added with the Add pages button of the Pages Report, or on pages already in the project. See Organizing pages with tags.
