What Does it Mean to be "Indexed"?
For your website to appear in Google search results, it must first be "indexed." This means Google's web crawler (Googlebot) has visited your page, understood its content, and stored it in its massive database, known as the Google Index.
If a page isn't indexed, it's invisible to Google Search. Our tool helps you quickly check if a specific URL is part of this index, which is the first and most critical step in any SEO strategy.

Check NowFrequently Asked Questions
Why does this tool open a new tab?
There is no public API to check Google's index directly. This tool automates the process of creating a special `site:` search query, which is the most reliable method. Opening it in a new tab allows you to see the official, live results directly from Google.
My page is not indexed. What should I do?
First, ensure the page doesn't have a "noindex" meta tag and isn't blocked by your `robots.txt` file. Then, use Google Search Console to inspect the URL and request indexing. High-quality content and internal links also help.
How long does it take for a page to get indexed?
It can take anywhere from a few hours to several weeks. The speed depends on your site's authority, crawl budget, sitemaps, and how frequently you publish new content.
