I started a blog on 10 august and submitted it to Google search console. I also started building forum post backlinks 2 days ago and did 15 forum posts. But google is neither indexing my blog posts and nor backlinks. What can I do?
After waiting for 2 days the webpages got indexed in Search Console. But the backlinks are still not indexed and getting this message in search console - "Processing data, please check again in a day or so"
I'm guessing that they're not prioritising new sites, and what they've seen so far hasn't triggered special treatment.
In which forum ?? ..... 15 posts in single forum or multiple forums ?? ...... Are those forums allow do follow ?? because most of forums use no follow ..... you should build backlinks by multiple ways like social bookmarking, guest posting, HARO, can use directory submission (Not so effective but not bad if old and good DA), content marketing etc.. Now a days content based links are more effective then other backlinks.
These are unmoderated forums where tech support websites spam their links. I also posted links there for my computer troubleshooting blog. Last time I got to page 2 doing this but I got too much worried about hosting bill last time.
It sounds like you're taking proactive steps to get your blog noticed! Sometimes it takes a bit of time for Google to index new content and backlinks. Since you've just started, patience is key. Make sure your blog content is high-quality and original, and keep engaging in those forums for genuine interactions. Also, consider sharing your blog on social media and connecting with others in your niche (as mentioned above). If you're still facing indexing issues after a while, you might want to double-check your Google Search Console settings or explore other ways to enhance your blog's visibility. Keep up the good work, and things should start falling into place!
Hold your horses, You hve just started a blog, It take some time, maybe a month, and make sure you hve done everything correct from your side, and let Google to crawl it easily.
since you are site is new, I recommend please wait for a few weeks to a month. Google will automatically index your site. Make sure your site pages aren't blocked by robots.txt and you have submitted sitemap in search console.
Sometimes the webpages get indexed in 2 or 3 days but sometimes it will be more than a week or a month. And, it's great your webpages got indexed. Let's come to the backlinking part. As you've mentioned you have created 15 links from the Forum. Are those forums of the same niche? Are those forums active? Basically, it's not a good idea to create backlinks from the Forums but in the initial stage, you can create some on similar, active and high-authority forums. However, creating backlinks to your website from 100s of forum websites can negatively impact your website. And, Google also mentioned it in their link spam policies. If the link has a nofollow attribute then it is up to Google to index that link or not. BTW nofollow links won't get indexed. So it may be the case your backlinks aren't indexed.
Do you have any other websites that are already indexed or a friend with a website? The spiders always re-walk the existing indexed pages looking for new links. All you need is a link leading to your site on an existing page and you will get into the index. Maybe sure that the hyperlink is plain html and not rendered by some complex javascript to be safe.
I assume, you have create the website on a newly registered domain name. These days such websites take longer to be indexed in Google. Please know the rule of thumb, which is faster the activities on your website creating content and building links, better the indexing performance you get. And, it doesn't mean that you started creating several low-quality pages everyday... of course, quality is the first priority.
Indexing takes a bit, especially with new sites. Google can be slow to recognize new players, so don’t sweat if things aren’t popping up right away. It could take a few weeks or even longer for everything to start showing up in search results. Focus on building out new articles whilst you wait.
Focus on content first and share it with your established connection on social network. Good indexing usually take 1 - 2 days when you just create a new sites
Google lets the GSC handle by a AI, the similarities are striking when they 1st tried that. At least that is my impression. You have seen a Temporary processing error ?
