Just because your website is live doesn’t mean Google knows it exists. In this episode we’re tackling one of the biggest blind spots in local SEO – page indexing. If your service or city pages aren’t indexed, they’ll never show up in search results! And that means no traffic, no leads, and no growth.
You’ll learn how to check if Google is ignoring your pages, why indexing matters more than ever, and how to get your content seen (the right way). We’ll also cover common indexing mistakes, when to use the URL inspection tool, and why shady tools might hurt more than help.
Whether you're building new pages or wondering why your current ones aren’t ranking, this episode gives you the essentials to make your site visible—and valuable.
