Popular WordPress plugin, Rank Math now supports IndexNow to index and rank websites faster.
Website owners and SEO experts spend time and money creating content, product descriptions, and other changes on websites only to wait weeks or longer for changes to appear on Bing, Google, Yandex, and other search engines.
IndexNow’s integration into Rank Math for WordPress allows users to quickly inform search engines of changes such as new content, deleted content, and redirects. This results in faster indexing, traffic, and conversions.
Now, over a million WordPress sites with Rank Math can use IndexNow to ping live among search engines about changes.
The importance of fast indexing
A website is the default storefront for a business, but it takes time for search engines to detect any changes. It’s like a customer can still see paint peeling storefront 2 weeks after it’s been repainted.
Ecommerce websites make daily changes to product descriptions, content, and more.
Search engines don’t always check websites regularly to check for changes. Sometimes they have to be notified manually.
As a result, it can be weeks before the crawlers update their indexing, all while website owners continue to make changes.
Delays in crawling and indexing can have a negative impact on traffic because customers don’t see the most recent version of a page in search results.
There are ways to notify the search engines, but it takes a lot of time, especially for a website that makes thousands of changes.
WordPress users now have an easy and automated way to ping search engines for any changes to their websites thanks to the Rank Math integration.
Math ranking and index now
Rank Math is an SEO plugin for WordPress designed to easily configure and implement various SEO features for a website. It has a user interface that features rich snippet previews and how posts on social media look like.
It uses artificial intelligence to generate SEO suggestions that many website owners ignore and provides Google Analytics integration.
IndexNow allows website owners to manually notify search engines of changes using code, but integration with Rank Math automates the process.
When websites use Rank Math, the host generates an API key for the IndexNow protocol.
When changes are made, everything is sent to search engines in the background. There is nothing the user needs to do. Users also control the types of URLs provided.
Search engines take weeks or months to days to wait to reindex pages.
