A Google indexing tool for the websites you own
IndexCyborg runs the whole indexing workflow on every page of your site: it finds your URLs, notifies the engines that accept notifications, asks Google what it decided, and requests indexing inside Search Console's quota. It can't force Google to index anything, and every screen says so.
1Four steps on autopilot, three that stay with Google
A website indexing tool can make pages easy to find and ask for a crawl. Crawling, indexing and ranking are each search engine's decision.
IndexCyborg automates
Discover
Reads robots.txt and /sitemap.xml, builds the URL inventory and notices new, changed and removed pages.
Discovered
Notify
Sends new and changed URLs to IndexNow, once you have verified the domain.
Accepted
Inspect
Asks Google's URL Inspection API about each page and stores the answer word for word.
Google's own wording
Request
Clicks Request indexing in your own Search Console tab, at most 10 times per property in any 24 hours.
Requested
Search engines decide
Crawl
Bing, Yandex, Seznam.cz, Naver and Yep take IndexNow as a hint. Google crawls on its own schedule.
Index
Each engine decides. IndexCyborg reports Google's verdict and reason exactly as given.
Rank
Outside the workflow. Nothing in IndexCyborg changes rankings.
2What the tool does, with the limits printed
Every number below comes from the code that enforces it, including the quotas Google sets.
| Step | What IndexCyborg does | Limit | Status you see |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Discover | Reads the Sitemap: lines in robots.txt and /sitemap.xml, follows sitemap indexes and builds the URL inventory. Rescans find new, changed and removed pages. | 20,000 URLs per sitemap file, 50 sitemaps per index, rescan every 24 h by default (1–168 h) | Discovered |
| 2 Notify | Sends new and changed URLs to IndexNow once the domain and the key file are verified. Google doesn't use IndexNow. | Up to 1,000 URLs per API or MCP call | Accepted |
| 3 Inspect | Asks Google's URL Inspection API about every page of your linked Search Console property and stores the answer word for word. | 2,000 inspections per property per day (Google's quota), 50 new URLs every 5 min, re-checks after 7 days | Google's own wording |
| 4 Request | The Chrome extension clicks Request indexing in your own Search Console session, starting with pages Google reports as not indexed. | 10 requests per property per rolling 24 h, 14-day cooldown per page | Requested |
Nothing is notified or requested before you verify the domain, and automatic Google monitoring starts once the domain is verified and your Search Console property is linked. Technical checks run alongside, on up to 200 new and changed URLs per sitemap scan: HTTP status, redirects, noindex, robots.txt rules and canonicals.
3Google's answer, word for word
For each page, IndexCyborg stores the coverage state the URL Inspection API returns and shows it unchanged, with what it does and doesn't mean.
- Submitted and indexed
- Google reports the page as indexed. It says nothing about ranking.
- Discovered - currently not indexed
- Google knows the URL and hasn't crawled it yet. Not an error on your site.
- Crawled - currently not indexed
- Google fetched the page and decided not to index it for now. Not a penalty.
- Excluded by ‘noindex’ tag
- The page asks not to be indexed. Automatic indexing requests leave it out.
- Not checked
- Google hasn't been asked yet. Counted apart, never as indexed.
Coverage figures always state the inspected population. For example, if Google has answered for 180 of your 240 pages, coverage is reported over those 180, and the other 60 stay Not checked.
4What no indexing tool can do
Whatever an SEO indexing tool or an auto indexing tool promises, these stay out of reach, for IndexCyborg and for everyone else.
| Claim | Why not |
|---|---|
| Force Google to crawl or index a page | No tool can. Google decides, on its own schedule. |
| Promise “instant indexing” | A requested or notified page is queued, not indexed. |
| Use the Google Indexing API | Google documents it for JobPosting and BroadcastEvent pages only. |
| Index backlinks or pages on other sites | Every automated submission needs a domain you have verified. |
| Change rankings | Out of scope. Indexing is not ranking. |
5Start without an account
The free tools run the same checks as the product on a single page or file: whether robots.txt blocks a URL, whether a sitemap is valid, whether a page carries a noindex. They can't tell you whether Google has indexed a page: only Search Console's URL Inspection can, and that is what the product automates. The Google index checker explains why a site: search isn't proof either way.

6Frequently asked questions
- Can a Google indexing tool force Google to index my pages?
- No. No tool can force Google to crawl or index a page. A good indexing tool makes sure Google can find and reach every page, uses the official channels (sitemaps and Search Console's Request indexing), and tells you what Google decided and why.
- Does IndexCyborg use the Google Indexing API?
- No. Google documents the Indexing API for pages with JobPosting or BroadcastEvent structured data only. IndexCyborg uses the URL Inspection API to read each page's status and Search Console's Request indexing button, through a Chrome extension, to ask for a crawl.
- Do I need Google Search Console?
- For Google index monitoring and Request indexing, yes: you link your Search Console property with Google OAuth. Sitemap discovery, IndexNow notifications and technical checks work without it.
- How many pages can it request indexing for per day?
- At most 10 per Search Console property per rolling 24 hours. Automatic picks start with pages Google reports as not indexed and skip pages requested in the last 14 days.
- Can I use it for backlinks or pages on sites I don't own?
- No. IndexCyborg works on websites whose ownership you verify with a DNS TXT record or a hosted HTML file. Nothing is notified or requested for an unverified domain.
