Excellent software and practical tutorials
One of the biggest challenges for SEO is getting new or updated content indexed by search engines after it’s published.
That’s why Microsoft Bing launched with YandexIndexNow Protocol.
What is the "IndexNow" protocol (and what does it do)?
The time it takes for search engines to crawl and index your web page can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks. Unfortunately, this means that your SEO work for that page won't begin until search engines have indexed your page.
This isIndexNowWhere it comes into play.
IndexNowIs a new protocol that allows websites to ping search engines when they publish new content.
The best part? You don’t have to request indexing manually!
At its core, IndexNow is about making the Internet more efficient - for search engines and users. Perhaps the biggest efficiency gain for SEOs is that the IndexNow protocol minimizes exploratory crawls and increases crawl efficiency because search engines will be pinged when new content is published.
