Frequently Asked Questions

How does SeoSimba index pages?

We use official Google indexing API to submit your pages. This actually helps in indexing pages faster compared to waiting for Google to index them.

How long does it take to index pages?

Factors like SEO score, content quality, site ranking etc. plays a vital role in indexing pages fast thereby increasing your site's visibility. We've noticed that on an average it takes around 2 days to index your pages by submitting them via Google indexing api when compared to waiting for Google to do it. Some might even get indexed in a day or rarely in a few hours.

Can I really index unlimited pages per day ?

Yes. You can really index unlimited pages every day. With every Google API key, we can submit upto 200 pages per day. So you just need to add multiple keys generated from the Google Cloud Console.

How will I know if the pages are indexed or not?

We will check your sites daily for new indexed pages and also de-indexed pages. And mark the pages as indexed or not. You can check their status by loggin in through dashboard. In case of de-indexed pages we will let you know immediately through email. On Google search Console it takes a while to see the pages as indexed. That's because it takes around 3 days to refresh updates on GSC. However, on SeoSimba you will see the status immediately as we fetch it's status directly from the Google API.

Why do I need to add SeoSimba as an Owner on Search Console to index pages?

We agree that it might be concerning/annoying to you to add SeoSimba as an owner on Google Search Console. But it is a must have requirement set by Google to submit/remove pages on your behalf. There is nothing to worry here. Because, this service account exists only to interact with Google indexing api. It can't be used to login to Google Search Console.
