How do I ask Google to recrawl my URLs?

To confirm whether your site is known by Google, search for site:<your_site_URL> on Google. For example, my site is http://www.ilearnaws.com, I’d search for this: site:ilearnaws.com.

Because I’ve just launched this new site and Google hasn’t found it yet, no pages from my site appear in the search results. Therefore  I would like to request that Google re-index my page.

I use the URL Inspection tool to request a crawl of individual URLs. Note that if you have large numbers of URLs, you should submit a sitemap instead.

To submit a URL to the index:

  1. Inspect the URL using the URL Inspection tool.
  2. Select Request indexing. The tool will run a live test on the URL to see whether it has any obvious indexing issues, and if not, the page will be queued for indexing. If the tool finds issues with the page you should try to fix them.

Please note that requesting a crawl does not guarantee that inclusion will happen instantly or even at all.
