  • Can you request GoogleBot to crawl a URL that you don’t own?

    Posted by seohelper on April 11, 2020 at 7:45 am

    As the title says… I want to request GoogleBot to crawls certain URLs of a site I don’t own. Is it possible?

    PS- I know very little about SEO.

    Thanks!

    I don’t think that would be possible.

    If you do a 301 on that url, you can force the crawl via Google Search Console.

    You can also use tools like bulkaddurl and submit it, there is a free version and it works pretty good.

    That will never happen.

    No, you can’t request a URL to be crawled for another website. All other methods for link discovery still work.
