How do I get an expired domain indexed again

[uwat]

I bought an expired domain a couple months ago with a decent amount of backlinks in the right niche.

How do I get the domain indexed in Google again without using search console and leaving no footprints?

I already made some new backlinks without any result.

Should I use a different google account with search console?

If the domain doesn't have any penalties, you can easily index it with social media links. You can share a link through facebook page or twitter, and Google crawlers will check the site and index it.

Have you built a website on it? Because usually, I just install wordpress, post several articles, and in a few days, it will be indexed. no GSC no backlinks.

If that domain isn't indexed after 2 months, then I have some bad news for you.

It's very likely it has a manual penalty, so check GSC console for that.

Or your content is so bad, that there's no point indexing that site. If you put a 200 word article on homepage and let it be like that, then it might never get indexed.

Also, GSC does not leave footprints really. It doesn't provide Google with any information that they wouldn't already have.

Thanks.

I thought the whole point of setting up a pbn is that you leave the least amount of footprints. So that is what i've tried to do.

So you are saying I can put this site on the same search console as my money site?

- It's fine to use GSC.
- So I should add all my domains within the same GSC account?

- You can pet the cat.
- Are you saying it's fine to cut its head off?

No mate... no. How do you people even come to these conclusions?

You never once mentioned that you are planning to use the domain as PBN. Everyone figured you are talking about a money site.

Of course you cannot have the domain on the same GSC account as your money site.

You can create different GSC account and add the domain there, but considering that you have a LOT of learning to do, I would advice you not to add anything PBN related to GSC at all.

Your domains is most likely manually penalized.

Also, you are concerned about footprints and you have already built backlinks to your PBN domain? You don't build backlinks to your PBN domains, that's their entire point.

If it was a money site I wouldnt be worried about leaving footprints in the first place. But yes I wasnt totally clear about that.

But back to my original question. How do I get the site indexed? Lets assume it is penalized wich i highly doubt. I hear and read a lot about Google indexing problems recently.

I could do it manually but the site is not in GSC..

How much content do you have on that site?

How much content do you have on that site?

About 10 pages. I've rebuild the ones with links to them and added a couple new posts.

The site didn't have any traffic anymore so thats why I made a couple new backlinks to give it a little boost.

Either that content is catastrophic or that site is penalized mate. Not a chance that a domain with 10 pages of half decent content wouldn't get indexed within 2 months.

Indexing issues or not. Feel free to shoot me the domain over if you want and I can take a look, but it's either penalized or terribly low quality.

The content is unique and good quality. But I am experiencing the same problem with other websites as well. Old and new ones. Aged sites that always got indexed without any work and fesh domains as wel. And I am not alone in this. A lot of people experiencing the same.

Thank you for time and energy. Have a good day
