How indexing with Index Forge works
From the moment you paste a link to the moment Google has it: what you can send, what the bot checks, what you pay for and what happens when something goes wrong.
1. Send what you already have
Pick whichever is easiest. The bot accepts four kinds of input, and you can mix sites in one message. Up to 10,000 links per batch.
A list of URLs
Paste them straight into the chat, one per line. Good for a handful of fresh posts.
https://site.com/page-1
https://site.com/page-2A text file
Export from your crawler or CMS and drop the file into the chat. One URL per line, up to 10 MB.
urls.txtA sitemap URL
The bot reads it and takes every page. Sitemap indexes work too: it follows them down to the actual pages. You can send several at once.
https://site.com/sitemap.xmlJust a domain
The bot takes the homepage. One button pulls in every page from the site's sitemap, if the site has one.
site.com2. Every URL is checked like Googlebot
Google won't index a page that returns an error, redirects away, asks not to be indexed or points its canonical at another URL. Sending such pages is money spent on nothing, so the bot fetches each one first and filters them out.
Filtered links are never charged. The bot shows how many were dropped, and the "what was filtered" button lists them grouped by reason, so you know exactly what to fix. If you still want to send everything, there is a "Send all" button.
- 404 and 410The page doesn't exist. Google drops these from the index, it won't add them.
- Other 4xx and 5xxAccess denied, server errors, timeouts. Google can't read what it can't load.
- RedirectsGoogle indexes the destination, not the redirecting URL. Send the final address instead.
noindexin metaThe page asks search engines to keep it out of the index. Google respects that.X-Robots-TagThe same noindex instruction, sent in the HTTP header instead of the HTML.- robots.txtCrawling is blocked for Googlebot, so the content can't be fetched.
- Canonical elsewhereThe page names another URL as the main version. Google will usually index that one instead.
3. You see the price, then decide
Nothing is charged while the bot reads and checks. You get a summary with the number of links ready to send and the price in credits. One link is one credit, $0.01.

Indexing usually takes 1–3 days from sending. Some pages show up sooner, some take longer, and some are never kept: that part is Google's call.
What decides whether a page stays in the index is mostly the page itself. A unique, useful page that loads fast and is linked from the rest of your site has a good chance. A thin page, a near-duplicate of another URL or a page Google has already judged low-value may be crawled and still left out.
To see the result, use the URL Inspection tool in Google Search Console. The site: operator in search is a rough hint at best and often misses pages that are indexed.
If a page was crawled but not indexed, our guide on "Crawled – currently not indexed" explains what to change before sending it again.
5. Refunds, cancels and limits
- Filtered by the checkNever charged.
- Sent but not acceptedThe credit goes back to your balance automatically.
- You press CancelThe request is dropped and nothing is charged.
- Not enough creditsThe bot tells you how many you have and how many are needed. Top up from $5 in USDT.
- Batch sizeUp to 10,000 links at a time. Bigger lists go in several batches.
- LanguageThe bot speaks English and Russian.
- QuestionsPress 💬 Support in the bot. The team replies in the same chat.
What we don't promise
We don't promise that every page will be indexed, and you should be wary of anyone who does. Google decides what goes into its index and what stays there.
What we do: make sure each link is technically indexable, drop the ones that aren't before you pay, and get the rest in front of Google. Most accepted links that point to solid, unique pages are picked up. If a page keeps falling out, the problem is almost always the page, and the not-indexed checklist is the place to start.
Stop waiting for the crawler.
