Matt Diggity recently highlighted a growing concern on LinkedIn: Google is increasingly ignoring newly published content. The reason? The internet is being overwhelmed with AI-generated pages, and Google’s indexing systems are struggling to keep up. As a result, even high-quality, human-written content may sit unindexed for days—or even weeks.
But there’s a solution.
Matt shared a clever (and free) workaround that forces Google to index your pages instantly. It involves using Google’s Indexing API—a tool officially designed for job listings and live video pages. While Google says it’s not meant for general content, real-world tests show it works for all types of pages, including blog posts, service pages, and eCommerce content.
Setting it up takes less than 5 minutes and can make a major difference in getting your content discovered and ranked quickly. This is especially useful for SEOs, bloggers, and business owners who rely on timely indexing for traffic and leads.
As the SEO space gets noisier with AI content, smart strategies like this one give you an edge. Don’t wait for Google to “find” your content—take control of indexing today.
