CrakSEO does not use the Google Indexing API for general pages, and never will. Google limits the Indexing API to pages with JobPosting structured data and livestream pages with BroadcastEvent in a VideoObject. Google says other use isn’t supported and can be treated as spam, and it can revoke access. Tools that push blog posts, product pages or backlinks through the Indexing API break those rules.

​
What works for regular pages

In order, cheapest first:
  1. A clean sitemap listing only canonical, indexable URLs, with accurate lastmod dates, submitted in Search Console. CrakSEO tool: submit_sitemap.
  2. Internal links from pages Google already crawls often, such as your home page or a popular hub page.
  3. URL Inspection in Search Console to check status and request indexing for a few important pages. CrakSEO tool: inspect_url_in_google checks status; requesting indexing is done in the Search Console UI.
  4. IndexNow for Bing, Yandex, Seznam, Naver and other participating engines. Google doesn’t use it. CrakSEO tools: submit_urls_to_indexnow, or submit_url_for_indexing for IndexNow plus Bing Webmaster Tools in one call.
  5. Paid submission through a managed indexing supplier, for URLs that still aren’t picked up. CrakSEO tool: quote_indexing_submission, which returns an exact quote that the account owner approves before submit_indexing_urls spends anything.
If a page is “Crawled - currently not indexed”, submission rarely helps. Improve the page’s quality, uniqueness and internal links first.

​
What CrakSEO’s paid Google submission is

  • CrakSEO sends the approved URLs to a managed third-party indexing supplier. CrakSEO doesn’t call the Google Indexing API, and it doesn’t control or guarantee the supplier’s methods or results.
  • You’re charged per supplier-accepted URL, in a quote you approve before anything is spent.
  • A submission receipt is not proof of indexing. Google decides what to index. Job records show what was submitted and any later index checks.
