How to use this IndexNow checker

  1. Enter the site URL and the key (8 to 128 letters, numbers or hyphens).
  2. The official protocol prefers a UTF-8 file named {key}.txt at the site root, containing only the key.
  3. A 200 response and a matching body mean the file is in place. That is not proof that a search engine has indexed a page.
  4. This tool never calls api.indexnow.org or www.bing.com/indexnow.

See the IndexNow setup guide for response codes and how Traffivio can send pings after you approve a change.

Fetches https://your-host/{key}.txt only. No URLs are submitted to IndexNow. Rate limits apply.

Let Traffivio send IndexNow

Connect the site in a workspace. After you approve a change, Traffivio can ping IndexNow for the updated URLs. You still need a valid key file on the host.

Questions

Will this submit my pages to Bing?

No. It only fetches the key file. Traffivio can send IndexNow pings after an approved change in a connected workspace.

Where should the file live?

At the site root: https://example.com/{key}.txt, as option 1 in the official IndexNow documentation.

Do I need an account?

No. These tools work without signing in. Rate limits apply per visitor.

Does Traffivio change my site?

No. Server tools only fetch public URLs. Counters run entirely in your browser.
