# Get started with Index My Site

Learn how to get product, docs, comparison, and collection pages indexed by Google, buy and manage credits, and automate submissions with the CLI, MCP server, and API.

Index My Site helps Googlebot discover and crawl the pages you submit, then checks each one and reports the result. Submit the pages that matter to your business, or pages on other public sites that mention or cite you. We check every URL once after 24 hours. Your full report follows around day 5, with final checks around day 14. A URL confirmed as not indexed returns its credit. Google decides what it indexes, so nothing is guaranteed.

## Four steps

1.  **Sign up.** Create an account at [app.indexmysite.app/signup](https://app.indexmysite.app/signup) with Google, GitHub, or an email address and password.

2.  **Buy credits.** One URL costs one credit. Your first purchase is $50 for 250 credits. See [Credits](https://indexmysite.app/docs/credits) for the full pricing rules.

3.  **Submit URLs.** Paste up to 2000 URLs into a job. Each URL uses one credit. See [Submitting URLs](https://indexmysite.app/docs/submitting-urls).

4.  **Watch the statuses.** Each URL moves from queued to in progress to indexed. We check every URL once after 24 hours. Your full report follows around day 5, with final checks around day 14. URLs confirmed as not indexed after the final check are marked as refunded and their credit goes back to your balance.

## What to submit

-   Software: product and feature pages, documentation, comparison and alternative pages, pricing, changelogs, and blog posts.
-   Ecommerce: new products, collections, and category pages, especially after a launch or catalog update.
-   Mentions and citations of your product on other public sites.

You do not need Search Console access or site ownership. Any public, crawlable http or https URL works. Pages still need to be worth indexing: public, reachable pages with real content do best, and pages blocked by robots rules or a noindex tag will not be indexed.

## Automate it

-   The [MCP server](https://indexmysite.app/docs/mcp) lets Claude, Cursor, Codex, and other AI clients submit URLs and check results for you.
-   The [`indexmysite` CLI](https://indexmysite.app/docs/cli) submits URLs from your terminal, a deploy script, or CI.
-   The [API](https://indexmysite.app/docs/api) gives you the same features from your own code, so pages can be submitted the moment they publish.
