Start indexing

An IndexPlease alternative that reads your sitemap every 10 minutes.

IndexPlease and IndexBoost do the same core job: find pages search engines are missing and submit them for you. They differ in how often they look for new pages, in what comes with the product and in price.

Which one fits

Neither tool is right for everyone. This is how we would decide.

Choose IndexBoost if

  • You publish often and want new pages submitted within minutes, not on a daily scan.
  • Your content is announced in an RSS feed or a WordPress site rather than only in a sitemap.
  • You want to ask an AI assistant about index status through an MCP server.
  • You want to try automatic indexing before paying for it.

Choose IndexPlease if

  • You want a daily email telling you what was indexed.
  • You want page error monitoring and meta tag previews in the same tool.
  • You prefer to sign up with an email address instead of a Google account.

Common questions

Is IndexBoost cheaper than IndexPlease?

Right now, yes: IndexBoost is free during its beta and automatic indexing is included. IndexPlease starts at $15 a month, or $7 a month billed annually, as listed on its pricing page on November 15, 2026. IndexBoost will charge for plans after the beta; the planned prices are on the pricing page.

Do both tools need owner access in Search Console?

Yes. Google only accepts indexing requests from an owner of a property, so both products ask you to add a service account as an owner. You can remove it at any time in Search Console.

How do I move from IndexPlease to IndexBoost?

Sign in with the Google account that manages your sites and they are imported from Search Console. Connect Google, Bing or IndexNow for each site and turn on auto-indexing. Nothing needs to be exported from IndexPlease: IndexBoost reads your sitemap and checks each URL's index status itself.

Does IndexBoost guarantee that pages get indexed?

No, and no tool can. IndexBoost tells search engines about a page through their official interfaces soon after it is published. Whether the page is indexed is the search engine’s decision, and thin or duplicate pages may be left out.
