Google Indexing API Facing Issues, Causing Digital Marketers Concern
Recent reports indicate that the Google Indexing API is experiencing technical difficulties. Users have reported that although the API shows successful submissions, content is not being indexed by Googlebot. This has raised concerns, particularly for those relying on fast content indexing as part of their digital marketing services strategies. Google clarified that the API is meant only for job postings and live stream content. Misuse of the tool can lead to content not being indexed or being quickly dropped after indexing. These issues have surfaced shortly after the August 2024 core update, highlighting the need for quality content to meet Google's standards.
