Definition
Backlink indexers are specialized services or tools designed to force search engines to quickly discover and index newly created backlinks. The natural indexation process can take weeks or even months, and many backlinks are never indexed. These services use a set of techniques to accelerate the process: creating secondary links (tiered linking) pointing to the backlink, submitting to search engines via pings, generating RSS feeds containing the URLs, sharing on social networks and bookmarking platforms, and submitting to directories. Popular services include Indexification, Omega Indexer, and One Hour Indexing. Indexation rates vary from 30% to 70% depending on the quality of pages hosting the backlinks. This practice is controversial because it aims to manipulate the natural link discovery rhythm by Google.
Key Points
- Forces backlink indexation by generating multiple signals (pings, RSS, secondary links)
- Indexation rates vary from 30% to 70% depending on source page quality
- Popular services: Indexification, Omega Indexer, One Hour Indexing
- Controversial practice that manipulates Google's natural link discovery rhythm
Practical Examples
PBN network indexation
After creating 50 backlinks from a private blog network, submit the URLs to an indexation service so Google discovers them within days instead of several weeks.
Tiered indexation boost
A backlink indexer automatically creates secondary signals (blog comments, profiles, bookmarks) pointing to your backlinks to signal their existence to crawlers.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. Indexation rates vary significantly depending on the quality of the page hosting the backlink. Pages on established, regularly crawled sites have much higher indexation rates than pages on new or low-quality sites. No service can guarantee 100% indexation.
The main risk is drawing attention to artificial links. If Google indexes links from a PBN or low-quality network, it can also identify and devalue them. Sometimes, non-indexed links being 'invisible' to Google is preferable to having them indexed and triggering a spam signal.
