Do not rely on manual URL inspection in GSC for thousands of pages. Here is the proper way to handle this:
1. Google Indexing API: Set up the Google Indexing API using Google Cloud Console and connect it via the Rank Math Instant Indexing plugin or a simple script. This increases your daily submission limit from 10 up to 200 URLs per day.
2. IndexNow for Bing: Bing natively supports the IndexNow protocol, which allows you to submit up to 10,000 URLs daily for immediate crawling. Most SEO plugins or the official IndexNow plugin will automate this whenever you publish a tour.
3. Fix Internal Linking: If thousands of tour listings are stuck in "Discovered - currently not indexed", they are likely orphan pages. Build strong category hub pages (e.g., Country > City > Tour Type) and add dynamic "Related Tours" blocks on every listing so Googlebot has clear crawl pathways.
4. Free Travel Backlinks: Pitch travel bloggers to get featured on their "Things to do in [City]" guides, submit your business to local regional tourism boards, and monitor Connectively (formerly HARO) for travel journalists looking for expert tour quotes.
