Upon hearing the confirmation, many SEO practitioners were somehow alarmed since they consider this a major blow against their content promotion campaigns given that most of them heavily rely on such tool to promote the products and services that they offer. After giving the confirmation, Google also provided some advice to individuals or groups who are most likely to be heavily hit by the newly-implemented changes. In fact, it is advising the users of the removed tool utilise their Search Console’s Fetch & Submit tool. Also, Google informed their users that they can now notify Google regarding new pages using a sitemap file. Unfortunately, most of the Google users who regularly use the recently-removed tool are not yet acquainted with the Search Console’s Fetch & Submit tool which is being introduced as an option. This prompted a lot of SEO experts who are familiar with the new tool’s mechanism were quite quick in accommodating the immediate knowledge.
A good example of the said effort manifested when Search Engine Journal published an article which tries to educate many Google users. According to the post, users can submit a URL to Google’s index via Search Console by following the steps below. Step 1: Conduct a fetch request for a URL using the Fetch feature. Step 2: Click the “Request indexing” icon located near the fetch icon within the fetch history table. Step 3: Choose the desired crawling mechanism. The tool comes with a feature that allows users to select whether they want the single URL to be crawled or that new URL along with its direct links. Step 4: Click “Submit” icon to have the request queued Given these steps, many SEO experts are expecting that the users will soon become familiar with the new tool’s functions. However, Google hinted that they would allow site owners to submit up to 10 individual URLs daily. Finally, Google revealed that they would only allow verified site owners to submit URLs from their sites.
