Indexing API update - July 14 2024 Report

Welcome to Crawl or No Crawl today. As I mentioned in the last report, I thought it time to bring back the Indexing API into active status.

Something that often happens when I shift from GSC request to API or API back to GSC that first time using the alternative method of request, the crawling system behaves differently. Because I can’t point to that with data, I’m going to start tracking that.

Often we think Google is so capable that it seems odd to note that even Google takes a moment to get back “into the swing” of things. I’m sure there’s a highly sophisticated reason why that is. Why I note this is because I think it’s important not to make these glitches MEAN SOMETHING about our content.

I do think we inflate our influence and control over things like this when we encounter something we don’t expect.

Now to the report.
