Direct Index Submission
Push new content to search and AI indexes faster.
Notify Bing, Yandex and other IndexNow engines the moment a page changes.
Keep sitemaps current and resubmitted automatically.
See how long it takes for crawlers to fetch each new URL.
Direct index submission tells search engines about new and changed pages the moment they're published, instead of waiting for the next crawl. It uses IndexNow for Bing, Yandex, Seznam, Naver and other participating engines, and keeps XML sitemaps accurate for Google.
Faster discovery matters more for AI search than for classic search. Several AI assistants answer from a search index, so a page has to be indexed before it can be cited.
Set up IndexNow in three steps and submit up to 100 changed URLs right now. The key file on your site proves ownership, so nobody can submit URLs for a site they don't control.

2Upload the key file to your site root
Create a key first.
3Add changed URLs, then verify and submit
One URL per line, all on the same host, up to 100.
