Hey guys, just need some help on this.

Do you manually index all your post on search console OR post and wait for google to index it on its own??

i have about 50 posts on my website and submitted site map.

when i search the string ''site: my website)''.... i see only 6 posts, im assuming this is normal and Google wont show everything but i could be wrong.

Do i keep posting and leave it at that or do i post and submit every post to search console as well....

Any advice?
 
Basically, the page was found by Google, but not crawled yet. Typically, Google tried to crawl the URL but the site was overloaded
therefore Google had to reschedule the crawl. This is why the last crawl date is empty on the report. Wait for sometimes and If u still face the problem, do manually indexing.
Thanks :)
 
I always ping Google API when new post is created or updated. I used to trackback, back in the day, and before this, url should be submitted manually to avoid long waiting, so API feels like a new method to help indexing and stay fresh, although not 100% effective

Sitemaps help reasonably but not enough for my POV and although I don't obsess with the indexability rate of my sites I feel that one should maintain a bare method to stay comfortable on this topic.
 
If a post isn't getting indexed I'd make sure you have enough internal links pointing to it, and they're as few clicks away from the homepage as possible. I'd also tier a post if it proves stubborn to index.
 
I always use the Google inspection tool at least once after each post is published
 
manually the home page, the rest wait for GG. it is very fast when the content is good.
 
I keep on sharing my content on social media and occasionally create some backlinks. This ensures that Google crawls my site.

I have also observed that Google never reveals the exact number of crawled and indexed pages in your site in the GSC. So I stopped worrying about the non-indexed pages because when I tested them individually, it shows that they are already crawled and indexed. It happens with many pages. So I stopped thinking about it and focused on my promotion activities.
 
Generally, Google takes a week or more to index your site, so don't assume there is a problem immediately. If your site was updated recently, check back in a week to see if it has been indexed.
 
Always ping after a new post to speed things up is what ive always been told

This usually happens when you are posting low-quality and non-unique content.
 
I check the cache of each post after ten days to 2 weeks. I don't submit anything. GOod things come to those who wait, and post regulalry
 
you should manually index your Web pages by Google Search console. because when you start a new website you have to tell google about your Page.
 
Give some time for natural indexing if the articles were recently published. Usually google will take some time. Also, nowadays indexing is very slow. Make sure that all the articles were unique. You can share the articles on social medias, interlink the relevant articles, & build some high quality links to it.

Sitemaps do help. How many quality backlinks do you have?
