Script to get your site indexed on Google in less than 48 hours

Google Indexing Script

Use this script to get your entire site indexed on Google in less than 48 hours. No tricks, no hacks, just a simple script and a Google API.

You can read more about the motivation behind it and how it works on this blog post https://seogets.com/blog/google-indexing-script

Important

This script uses Google Indexing API. While there is no absolute guarantee that every page will be indexed, recent tests conducted in December 2023 have shown a notably high success rate.

Requirements

• Install Node.js
• An account on Google Search Console with the verified sites you want to index
• An account on Google Cloud

Preparation

1. Download or close this repository
2. Follow this guide from Google. By the end of it, you should have a project on Google Cloud with the Indexing API enabled, a service account with the Owner permission on your sites.
3. Download the JSON file with the credentials of the service account and save it in the same folder as the script. The file should be named service_account.json

Usage

1. Open a terminal and navigate to the folder where you cloned repository
2. Run npm install to install the dependencies
3. Run node run index <domain> to index all the pages of your site. Replace <domain> with your site domain. For example, if your site is https://seogets.com, you should run node run index seogets.com

Here's an example of what you should expect:

Important Notes:

• Your site must have 1 or more sitemaps submitted to Google Search Console. Otherwise, the script will not be able to find the pages to index.
• You can run the script as many times as you want. It will only index the pages that are not already indexed.
• Sites with a large number of pages might take a while to index, be patient.
