  • Michael Martinez: Sometimes not even that. But if you`re frustrated with the crawl rate, you can submit the sitemap to Google Search Console, along with several URLs from your site that link out to other parts of your site.

    Crawling tends to happen very quickly. Indexing takes more time for most sites and may take longer than average for new sites.

    Ranking takes even more time for most sites, too.

  • Melanie Rosa: Michael Martinez thanks for the insight
