Ask Google to recrawl your URLs
If you've recently added or made changes to a page on your site, you can request that Google
re-index your page using any of the methods listed here. You can't request indexing for URLs
that you don't manage.
Crawling can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks. Be patient and monitor progress
using either the
Index Status report
or the
URL Inspection tool.
Keep in mind that there's a quota for submitting individual URLs and requesting a recrawl
multiple times for the same URL won't get it crawled any faster.
Submit a sitemap (many URLs at once)
If you have large numbers of URLs, submit a sitemap. A sitemap is an important way for Google
to discover URLs on your site. It can be very helpful if you just launched your site or
recently performed a
site move. A sitemap
can also include additional metadata about alternate language versions, video, image, or
news-specific pages.
