TearSnow IndexNow submits a post or page URL to your selected IndexNow endpoint whenever the item is saved with the published status.

Features:

  • Automatically submit newly published posts and pages, including scheduled items when they are published.
  • Submit updates to posts and pages that remain published.
  • Choose Bing, IndexNow, Amazon, Naver, Seznam.cz, Yandex, or Yep in Settings > General.
  • Use Bing by default until another endpoint is saved.
  • Automatically derive an IndexNow key from the site hostname and serve a virtual verification text file.
  • Skip revisions, autosaves, unpublished items, and post types other than posts and pages.
  • Open the endpoint setting using the Settings link on the Plugins screen.

This plugin does not submit existing content in bulk, submit deletion notifications, retry failed submissions, or display submission results. Submissions run during the save request, with a request timeout of 10 seconds.

The plugin is developed by TearSnow and is not an official plugin of IndexNow or any participating search engine.

External services

This plugin uses external IndexNow services to notify participating search engines about published URLs. Activating the plugin enables automatic submissions to Bing by default. Administrators can change the receiving endpoint in Settings > General. Deactivating the plugin stops its submissions.

When a post or page is saved with the published status, the plugin sends an HTTPS POST request containing:

  • The hostname of the submitted URL (host).
  • The site’s IndexNow verification key (key).
  • The public address of the verification file (keyLocation).
  • The permalink of the saved post or page (urlList).

The payload does not include the post body, author details, passwords, or visitor information. The receiving service can observe the server’s public IP address and standard HTTP request metadata. Published password-protected posts and pages are also submitted; their passwords are not sent.

The selected service may retrieve the verification file and crawl the submitted URL. According to the IndexNow documentation, submissions are shared with other participating search engines; choosing an endpoint does not restrict submission data to that provider.

Available endpoints:

  • Bing: https://www.bing.com/indexnow
  • IndexNow: https://api.indexnow.org/indexnow
  • Amazon: https://indexnow.amazonbot.amazon/indexnow
  • Naver: https://searchadvisor.naver.com/indexnow
  • Seznam.cz: https://search.seznam.cz/indexnow
  • Yandex: https://yandex.com/indexnow
  • Yep: https://indexnow.yep.com/indexnow
