Indexing
in short
Indexing is adding a crawled page to the search engine's database used to build results.
Indexing means storing a page in Google's index after crawling and analyzing its content.
How it works
Google evaluates uniqueness and quality, picks a canonical version and decides whether to add the page to the index.
Why it matters
- Only indexed pages can rank
- Duplicates dilute signals
- A stray noindex can switch off a whole section
How Accendix handles it
We monitor the Search Console Pages report and fix noindex, duplicates and 'Crawled – currently not indexed' issues.
