Google Alerts Users Not To Exploit API Indexing With Spam Practices

The Google Indexing API informs Google every time a job posting or livestream video is added, updated, or removed from a website.

Google has issued warnings for users trying to abuse the proper usage of Indexing API. It clarified in a statement, Let’s break this down for you…..

Google reported that users are foul-playing with its systems by exceeding quota limits using multiple accounts.

The No. 1 search engine warns users to face the consequences if they are found utilizing Indexing API for unscrupulous/forbidden activities.

The new update on Indexing API is detecting and flagging inaccurate and non-structured data.

Another shot Google took emphasizes on mandatory use of sitemaps, rather than treating them as a substitute for API which just aims to speed up the crawling process.

Always use sitemaps along with API. Use Indexing API only for reporting to Google about job postings and livestream videos on your site. Google warns users to keep their job postings and livestream video content accurate and well-structured. Failure to abide by Google Indexing API guidelines may result in revocation of access. ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔
