Reindex pages

The Reindex pages tool helps you notify Yandex about new and updated pages on your site:

  1. In Yandex Webmaster, go to Indexing → Reindex pages.

  2. In the Select site field, choose a site from the list.

  3. In the field that appears, enter the URLs of the pages that should be indexed first.

    Note

    There's a limit on how many URLs you can enter for your site's primary domain and all the subdomains. The limit is reset daily. To regularly submit a large number of pages, use the Tags crawl tool.

  4. Click Send.

The indexing bot will process your request and try to fulfill it. You can track the status of your submitted pages in the Status column:

Status Meaning
In queue The indexing bot will visit these URLs first the next time it crawls your site. This process may take up to three days, but usually takes less.
Request processed The indexing bot has visited the page. The data will be updated within two weeks. This status doesn't mean that the bot has indexed the page. For example, if indexing is blocked for the page, it won't appear in Yandex Search.
Error The bot was unable to index the page and update the information about it in the search database. Make sure that the page is accessible to the robot and the server returns the response quickly enough. Then send the page for reindexing.

To track indexing and receive notifications about status changes, add the URL to your list of important pages. For more information, see Important page monitoring.

Make sure that:

  • The pages can be accessed by the robot (use the Server response check tool).
  • The information about pages is present in the Sitemap file.
  • The Disallow and noindex prohibiting directives and the noindex HTML element in the robots.txt file prevent only technical and duplicate pages from indexing.
Recommendations didn't help

If you followed the instructions when deleting the site pages and more than two weeks passed after the site was crawled by the Yandex robot, fill out the form below:

If you use a redirect, the robot will gradually track redirects and the old pages will disappear from the search results as it crawls the site. For the robot to learn about the changes faster, send the pages for reindexing.

If the page URLs change with the change of the site's domain name, it may take more than a month to update the search data. Check if the site addresses are configured correctly.
