Enable Instant Indexing in the Landing Page Studio Publish flow to automatically submit your custom-domain URLs to Google — no manual submission or organic crawl wait required. Available as of the LPS-102 release.
🔍 What Instant Indexing Does
The Instant Indexing toggle submits your published URLs directly to Google via RapidURL Indexer — an automated URL submission service that Search Atlas uses to relay your URLs to Google's indexing API. Without it, Google discovers new pages on its own schedule, which can take days or weeks.
- Submitted URLs are typically crawled within 24–48 hours — significantly faster than organic discovery.
- Submission accelerates discovery but does not guarantee indexing — Google controls the final crawl and index decision.
⚙️ Requirement: Custom Domain
The Instant Indexing toggle only appears when your site is published to a custom domain. If your site is not connected to a custom domain, the toggle will not appear in the Publish flow. Connect a custom domain to your Landing Page Studio site first, then return to publish.
🖱️ How to Enable Instant Indexing When Publishing in Landing Page Studio
- Open Landing Page Studio and navigate to the site or page you want to publish.
- Click Publish to open the Publish flow.
- In the Publish dialog, locate the Instant Indexing toggle.
- Enable the toggle to turn on automatic URL submission.
- Click Publish to confirm and go live.
Once publishing completes, Landing Page Studio submits your custom-domain URLs to Google via RapidURL Indexer automatically. No additional steps are required on your end.
Toggle persistence: The Instant Indexing toggle applies only to the current publish action. Re-enable the toggle each time you open the Publish flow to submit URLs for future publishes.
📊 What to Expect After Enabling Instant Indexing
After you publish with Instant Indexing enabled:
- Your custom-domain URLs are submitted to Google through RapidURL Indexer.
- A confirmation message appears in the Publish dialog, and the submission status is recorded in your Landing Page Studio publish history.
- Google typically crawls submitted URLs within 24–48 hours, though timing can vary depending on Google's queue and your site's authority.
- Pages index faster than through organic discovery, but submission does not guarantee indexing — Google makes the final crawl and index decision.
⚠️ Troubleshooting: Instant Indexing Toggle Not Visible in the Publish Flow
If you do not see the Instant Indexing toggle in the Publish flow, check the following:
- No custom domain connected: The toggle only appears for sites published to a custom domain. Go to your site settings, connect a custom domain, then return to the Publish flow.
- Publishing to a non-custom URL: Instant Indexing is not supported for Search Atlas-hosted or subdomain-only URLs — a custom domain is required.
🛠️ If Instant Indexing Submission Fails
If your URLs are not submitted successfully, use the steps below to diagnose and resolve the issue:
-
Check submission status: Open the publish history in Landing Page Studio to see whether the submission succeeded, failed, or is still pending.
-
Common failure causes:
- Your custom domain is not yet verified with Google Search Console.
- DNS records for your custom domain are still propagating.
- Google's indexing API temporarily rejected the request due to rate limits.
-
Fallback option: Manually submit the affected URLs through Google Search Console using the URL Inspection tool, then click Request Indexing.
🎯 You now know how to use the Instant Indexing toggle in Landing Page Studio to give Google an immediate signal about your newly published pages. Make sure your site is connected to a custom domain before opening the Publish flow.
