How to Index Blogger Posts in Google Faster (Updated Guide)

You published a new post on Blogger, but it is not showing up on Google. This is one of the most common problems for new bloggers. In this updated guide you will learn the methods that actually help Google find and index your Blogger posts faster, and the truth about the “Instant Indexing API” trick that many tutorials promote.

Method 1: Request indexing in Google Search Console (recommended)

1. Add your blog to Google Search Console and verify it (Blogger can be verified with an HTML tag in Theme → Edit HTML, or with a DNS record if you use a custom domain).
2. Paste your new post URL into the URL Inspection bar at the top.
3. If it says “URL is not on Google”, click Request indexing.
4. Wait. Most posts appear within a few hours to a few days.

Do this only for new or updated posts. Requesting the same URL again and again does not speed things up.

Method 2: Submit your Blogger sitemap

In Search Console, open Sitemaps and submit:

• sitemap.xml – for posts
• sitemap-pages.xml – for static pages

Google then checks your sitemap regularly and discovers new posts on its own.

Method 3: Make your blog easy to crawl

• Link new posts from older posts that are already indexed. Internal links are one of the fastest ways Google finds new pages.
• Enable search description in Blogger Settings and write a unique description for every post.
• Check custom robots.txt. If you enabled it, make sure it is not blocking your posts. When unsure, turn custom robots.txt off.
• Write original, useful posts. Google may crawl but not index thin or copied content (“Crawled – currently not indexed”).
• Share your post on your social profiles and YouTube video description so people (and crawlers) can reach it.

What about the Google Indexing API trick?

Many videos show how to use a Google Cloud service account, a JSON key and a Google Colab script to “instantly index” any page. Here is what you should know before using it:

• According to Google’s official documentation, the Indexing API is only meant for pages with JobPosting or livestream (BroadcastEvent) video structured data.
• Google says all submissions are checked for spam, and abusing the API can get your access revoked.
• For normal blog posts, Google may crawl the URL but there is no guarantee it will index or rank it.

If you still want to test it for learning purposes, the basic setup is:

1. Open Google Cloud Console and create a new project.
2. Go to APIs & Services → Library and enable the Web Search Indexing API.
3. Create a service account, then create a key in JSON format and download it.
4. In Search Console → Settings → Users and permissions, add the service account email as an Owner.
5. Upload the JSON key to the Colab notebook from the download below, paste your URLs and run the script.

Our advice: use Methods 1–3 for your blog. They are safe, free and recommended by Google.

Common reasons a Blogger post is not indexed

• The blog is brand new and has very few links pointing to it.
• The post is too short or very similar to other pages.
• The post is blocked by robots.txt or a “noindex” setting.
• The sitemap was never submitted.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does Google take to index a Blogger post?

Usually from a few hours to a few days. New blogs can take longer until Google trusts the site.

Is the Indexing API safe for blog posts?

Google officially supports it only for job postings and livestream videos. Using it for normal posts is not recommended.

Does a custom domain help indexing?

It does not index posts faster by itself, but it helps with branding and long-term trust.
