What to include in a bulk indexing batch

Group URLs by a shared purpose so the final report tells you something useful. A launch batch, a refreshed-content batch and a backlink campaign should not be mixed together.

  • New product URLs from one release
  • A set of refreshed articles
  • Backlink URLs from one vendor or campaign
  • New location pages
  • Migrated pages that have a clear old-to-new mapping
02

What the validator removes

The tool rejects entries that are not complete public HTTP or HTTPS URLs and removes exact duplicates before credits are charged.

It cannot know whether a page is thin, canonicalized elsewhere or blocked until deeper processing or human review. Those issues should be checked separately.

  • Blank lines
  • Malformed URLs
  • Unsupported schemes
  • Exact repeated URLs
  • Over-limit rows
03

How to prepare a CSV or pasted list

Use one canonical URL per row. Strip tracking parameters unless the parameterized URL is intentionally canonical. Resolve redirects before submission and avoid mixing staging URLs with production URLs.

  • Use absolute URLs including https://
  • Keep one URL per line
  • Remove fragments and unnecessary tracking tags
  • Confirm redirects resolve to the intended final URL
  • Keep a campaign name and source reference
04

Bulk processing without misleading status claims

FastIndexingBot separates operational status from search-engine indexing. Received, processing and completed describe what happened inside the service. They do not claim that Google has indexed the page unless an indexing check is explicitly performed.

This distinction keeps reports honest and prevents a green interface from being mistaken for a guaranteed search result.

Frequently asked questions

How many URLs can a bulk batch contain?

The allowed size depends on available credits and plan limits. The free test includes 10 URL credits.

Are duplicate URLs charged twice?

Exact duplicates in the submitted list are removed before a batch is created.

Can I upload a CSV?

The V4 dashboard supports pasted lists and CSV upload. Larger custom imports can be handled through the Scale plan.

Can bulk submission harm SEO?

Submitting clean public URLs does not repair or worsen the page itself. Avoid spammy, blocked, duplicate or non-canonical URLs and follow search-engine policies.
