Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Simple Search Submission for IndexNow
At the time of writing, IndexNow is supported by Bing, Naver, Seznam, Yandex and Yep.
There is no settings page for this plugin, simply activate the plugin and it will work as intended.
Possibly. Most SEO Plugins only include IndexNow support in their paid versions of the plugin. If you are using a free SEO plugin (such as Yoast SEO or All In One SEO), it is likely you will need this plugin to speed up indexing of your site's new content. If your SEO plugin does support IndexNow then you should not install this plugin. Doing so will double up requests to search engines to index your content. For large sites publishing regularly, this will increase the chance you reach your maximum number of URL submissions.
No, but it's more complicated than that. This plugin is intended as a replacement for the Bing plugin that is much simplified and just works.
IndexNow supports both notifications for newly published content and newly unpublished content. When unpublishing content, the notification serves as a request to de-index the newly 404 response on your site. Sending a de-indexing request ensures that your site's old content does not appear in indexes and result in a file not found error.
No. The plugin uses wp_get_environment_type() to determine whether to send notifications to IndexNow. For non-production environments, the request that would have been sent are logged in the PHP error log file to allow for developers to debug any requests. The notification is not actually sent to IndexNow.
There is no check for this setting in the plugin. As an SEO feature, the expectation for installing this plugin that you want search engines to index your site. If this is not the case then you should deactivate this plugin. As mentioned above, notifications are not sent for non-production sites.
