Search Discovery

Make the bench easy for search engines to find.

This page documents every no-login discovery surface currently exposed by AI Growth Bench. It is built for broad crawler discovery first; traffic quality can be filtered after there is enough data.

IndexNow

Fast discovery for participating engines.

The public key file is hosted at the site root. The repository also includes a sitemap-driven submission script that can notify IndexNow endpoints when public URLs are added or updated.

Submit all current sitemap URLs once after deployment.

Future runs submit only new or meaningfully updated URLs unless forced.

IndexNow helps discovery; it does not guarantee crawling, ranking, or indexing.

Indexable URL inventory

Canonical pages in the current sitemap.

These are the canonical HTML pages exposed through the XML sitemap, text sitemap, feeds, and IndexNow notifications. Utility and historical pages remain accessible but are intentionally excluded from the active index portfolio.

Yandex Webmaster

Login required

Add the site, submit /sitemap.xml, and monitor IndexNow/API discovery state.
