Popular WordPress plugin Rank Math now supports IndexNow for faster website indexing and ranking.
Website owners and SEO experts spend time and money in creating content, product descriptions, and other changes to websites only to wait weeks or longer for changes to be seen on Bing, Google, Yandex, and other search engines.
Integration of IndexNow into Rank Math for WordPress allows users to quickly inform search engines of changes such as new content, deleted content, and redirects. This leads to faster indexing, traffic, and conversions.
Importance of Fast Indexing
A website is the virtual storefront for a business, but it takes search engines time to discover any changes. It’s like a customer still seeing a paint-peeled storefront two weeks after it has been repainted.
E-commerce sites make changes daily in terms of products, content, and more. Search engines don’t visit websites regularly to check for changes unless they’re given a heads up. Weeks go by before crawlers update indexing and website owners continue to make changes.
It impacts the traffic to your site and user experience because customers aren’t seeing the most recent version of the page. There are ways to notify the search engines, but they are time consuming, especially for a website had thousands of changes.
WordPress users now have an easy and automatic way to ping search engines of any changes to their websites thanks to the Rank Math integration. It also works in conjunction with WooCommerce for WordPress ecommerce sites.
Rank Math and IndexNow
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 previews of rich snippets and posts look on social media.
It uses artificial intelligence to generate SEO suggestions websites overlook 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 utilize Rank Math, the plugin generates the host the API key for the IndexNow protocol.
When changes are made, everything is submitted to search engines in the background. There is nothing the user needs to do. Users also have control of the types of URLs submitted.
It takes the wait time for search engines to reindex pages from weeks or months to days. Bing is one of the search engines that use IndexNow and recently announced the integration on its blog.
