I am trying to improve the SEO placing of my site

www.vistashop.online

by creating contextual blog posts. I only discovered today that these posts are not indexing. I have manually submitted them through google webmaster tools.

Can someone tell me what i am doing wrong?

Thanks

While there are some good practices and contributing factor, there is no guaranteed on how long Google or any other search engine would take to index your site. It could range from few days to months.

 

If your website is new, I will strongly encourage to manually submit to search console for indexing. You should also look into other good practice like building 2 ways and relevant backlinks, creating content with the appropriate volume and brings value etc.

Hi @Limeonline,

 

Google prioritises sites that has huge traffic. For small/new sites that have minimal traffic, Google only occasionally automatically scan the sites for new content.

 

If you want a newly published blog content to be indexed quickly on Google, I highly recommend you to include "request for indexing on Google Search Console" as one of your tasks. This informs Google about your new content and it goes into their indexing queue. Indexing is not immediate and would take a few days up to a few weeks depending on how many links you are trying to indexed at one go.

 

Cheers,

Clarice
