thanks!

Did you go to your website and copy the exact URL from the browser bar that you're trying to index?

@@tortoiseandharesoftware Yes

@@Kezz-di5kb sorry, that's a little beyond the scope of the video to troubleshoot but I would recommend contacting your web host and talk to them about that.

Depends on a lot of factors - if the page is indexed at all. But, usually within 48 hours.

@@tortoiseandharesoftware thanks

Nope, we just did it yesterday for a post. Could just be some downtime with the system which happens from time to time. I would just try again tomorrow.

XD

You're welcome!

You're welcome!

Thank you! We'll surely try!

Wow, thank you! Glad you liked it, and yeah I hear ya, sometimes it's hard to get the big picture with technical training.

If you want it to be on Google then, yes. Google decides what they index though so requesting indexing doesn't mean it will be indexed if your page is low quality.

@@tortoiseandharesoftware Okay, and if it was low quality and they didnt wanna index it would they tell me?

@@yka881 No, experience is the best teacher in SEO.

You're welcome

You'll need the API

You can configure posting schedules that controls when they go out. For instance I push RSS feed content on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 1PM right now.

Requesting indexing in search console works for new pages as well. They are typically indexed within 2-7 days in my experience. If your page is not indexed after 7 days then it's likely because the page is either low quality or there are other SEO problems at hand.

That means your web page can't be found and troubleshooting that is beyond the scope of this video. You should have confirmed that you can navigate to the URL in a browser before attempting to request indexing. Copy paste the URL from the address bar when requesting.

For that you will have to use the API: developers.google.com/webmaster-tools There may also be 3rd party tools, that do it as well.

@@tortoiseandharesoftware but for non word-press site will it work? coz i crated a site with my own basic coding

@@hexiestvulf564 If this is a small personal site you should only need to request indexing on the home page and the search engines will crawl your site on their own eventually. Hooking up an API for indexing is really for more enterprise sites with frequently changing content.

You're welcome!

Sure, here is my LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/huntern/

You're welcome

Thanks Marc

That's a little past the scope of what we are typically doing for clients so don't have a great answer for you. We are building marketing sites so we avoid the complexity that an API approach brings.

Maybe you're looking at WordPress.com videos and not WordPress.org

Glad we could help

This diagram is useful for understanding some of the logic behind how a page is loaded in a given request. i.stack.imgur.com/KhJPd.png You might also find this article helpful for understanding how bootstrapping happens as part of a request lifecycle. It's not perfect, but I can't find a good overview. www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-wordpress-actually-works-behind-the-scenes-infographic/#:~:text=WordPress%20allows%20developers%20to%20create,then%20WordPress%20will%20load%20it. As far as creating your own CMS, you might be better off looking through the code. It is open source software haha, though I think many would agree that it's not the shining example of how to build a CMS if you were going to start from a greenfield project.

Thank you too!

I actually figure it out. One has to remove the link manually after the main item has been created via "Add to menu" button. Thank you again for the tut.

Glad I could help and glad you were able to figure it out!
