Before I would go to Bing Web Master to manually submit my links one by one, which is a tiresome and inefficient process. This app helps to simplify and expedite the link submission process to Bing and other IndexNow search engines and works in the background automatically. Support is also fast and friendly, A great addition to my store, I highly recommend it.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Mina! It was our pleasure to help you. If you need anything else, we’re always here for you. Thanks again for choosing InstaIndex!

This app is great! Automatic link submissions and updates give me peace of mind knowing that any change I make is sure to get indexed therefore increasing organic traffic potential. Totally worth it!

I had known about Indexnow for a while but hadn't gotten around to working out how to implement it. Then I found this app. It's very simple to install and use, and customer support (Raj) is very good. I am submitting a lot of URLs, but many aren't getting indexed. I know it's not InstaIndex that can influence this, but I wonder if Instaindex is all it says it is. It's early days, and I will try it for a year to see otherwise; you can submit 100 URLS manually on webmaster tools, which I think do, in fact, get indexed; however, if you have lots of product URLs, this is quite burdensome.
Thank you for your detailed review, Graham! We’re thrilled that you found our app simple to install and use, and we appreciate your kind words about our customer support. As you mentioned, the app facilitates notifying search engines, but the decision to index ultimately rests with them. Sites with good SEO typically see a high submission-to-indexing ratio. For newer sites, it's crucial to be patient and address any issues highlighted in Bing Webmaster Tools while continuously improving SEO. The decision to index is determined by algorithms and depends on various factors, including the age and popularity of the site, backlinks, niche, and quality of content. Rest assured, we are here to help with any issues you encounter when submitting URLs. The Bing team has assigned us a project manager, and we are continuously working with them to ensure our submissions are optimized for search engines. We recently implemented meaningful submissions—a first in any IndexNow implementation on the internet—that compares changes and only submits a URL if the change is important for SEO, thereby improving the quality of our submissions. We will bring your indexing issue to our contact at Bing. However, based on their usual recommendations, it's vital to focus on SEO improvements, as these are crucial for better indexing results. Thank you again for your feedback and for giving InstaIndex a try. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Saves a lot of time, pulled the trigger after they introduced markets support, so now we can get our ten CCitds index faster for search engines supporting indexNow, a bit matter than sitemaps
Thank you for your review! We're thrilled to hear that the app is saving you time and that the markets support feature has been beneficial for your needs. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please feel free to reach out.

Installed. Didn't work.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate your feedback and apologize for the inconvenience you experienced. We understand how frustrating it can be when things don’t work as expected. We have checked our server logs and found no errors related to your shop, which suggests that the issue might have been a temporary hiccup in either Shopify loading our app or an internet connection problem. In most cases, simply refreshing the page can resolve these kinds of issues. We pride ourselves on offering top-notch customer support and are committed to resolving any problems as quickly as possible—most support tickets are resolved within hours. We would love the opportunity to make this right for you. To ensure you have a smooth experience, we invite you to reinstall the app and get in touch with us directly at [email protected] if you encounter any issues. Our dedicated support team is always ready to assist you and ensure everything runs smoothly. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Update RAJ was very helpful in redeveloping the application. He provided information about things we lacked knowledge on. The application is now running smoothly. We are currently testing the application, and it will take 3-4 months to see effective results. I will provide another update after 3-4 months. I really thank RAJ very much. ---- I installed this app with great enthusiasm to integrate with the Bing search engine and make our products easier to find. However, I installed the app on May 24th, submitted 2,500 links, and haven't received a single bit of traffic yet. It's unbelievable, right? Not even one. This app is truly useless, folks. It's just a waste of space on your website.
Update: Thank you, Ece, for your update! We really appreciate your feedback and are glad we were able to help you. We are always here to support you. --- Original response: Thank you for your feedback and for using InstaIndex. We apologize for the delay in our response, as Shopify reviews can take a few days to be published, and we were not aware of your feedback until it was live. We understand your enthusiasm for getting your products ranked on Bing and driving traffic. To help with this, our app is designed to notify search engines about changes on your store, reducing the time it takes for them to become aware of new URLs or updates such as content improvements for SEO or price adjustments. However, it's important to note that InstaIndex does not directly influence the indexing or ranking of your store pages. Our function is to notify search engines promptly, and it is at the sole discretion of the search engines to crawl, index, and rank your pages. We reviewed your submission logs and noticed that you submitted 2,500 URLs in a single manual submission about 20 days ago. If these URLs were submitted without any changes, such as bulk pricing adjustments or content updates, this would violate IndexNow guidelines and be considered misuse of the protocol. As an official Bing partner, we do not support this and provide multiple warnings in our app before you reach the manual submission page. The IndexNow protocol is a combined effort of multiple search engines to help site owners notify them about changes on their site, reducing the need for regular sitemap crawls and making the indexing process more efficient. Once a URL is submitted, it is up to the search engines to decide whether to crawl, index, and rank that page. IndexNow simply reduces the time between changes on your site and when search engines become aware of them. For any further questions or issues, please get in touch with us directly at [email protected]. We're here to help.

Feels like I just subscribed to a beta product. The premium plan is supposed to automatically submit my URL's, yet it's doing nothing for my existing pages after days. Do I submit them manually? Do I wait? I'd love to troubleshoot this and find out more answers, but the only thing that exists on this product is a single landing page, and the contact page of your subsite doesn't work. While I appreciate that you replied saying this explanation is in your welcome email and slightly mentioned in your dashboard FAQ, you should make this clear on the actual ad profile, before users install the product and purchase premium. If a user has a new shop and recently updated a bunch of pages that have not been indexed yet, the tool that should automatically submit these doesn't, because the changes were made yesterday and the app was installed today, leading me to having to submit everything manually anyways and defeating the purpose of automation. At the minimum you should at least recognize those pages and allow the user to make the choice to submit or not, but there is not much with this product all together from features, info, or anything else, everything is all one pagers. I appreciate you following up with me after you post your reply here, but I've already uninstalled the product.
Update June 8: Thanks for updating your review with more details. Since we haven't received your email response, we're addressing your concerns here. Just to clarify, even if you're bulk submitting URLs you updated yesterday, they'll still be flagged as late submissions. During our calls with the Bing team, they made it clear that the app should only submit URLs that have changed "after" the app was installed. We built the app with Bing’s guidelines, and it works exactly how they wanted it. Auto-submitting existing URLs without changes goes against IndexNow protocol and can be counterproductive. We don’t recommend or promote this practice. We recommend submitting your sitemap to notify search engines about all existing URLs for your newly created site. SEO is a long-term game, and you’ll get the best results by making sure Bing learns about any new updates on your site through the IndexNow protocol. While our App Store listing clearly mentions that we auto-submit URLs when changes are made, we apologize for any confusion caused. We'll work on better educating our new users about IndexNow. Regardless, for users who need to manually submit URLs following changes, we support one-click bulk submission from the Shopify products table. Here, you can filter, select, and submit multiple products using the "Submit to IndexNow" action. This feature is highlighted on the manual submission page with screenshots, as well as in the app store images. We've designed the app to be minimalistic and user-friendly—install, subscribe, and forget. We want you to focus on what you do best: selling your products. As the app is still relatively new and our priority has been on technical aspects and bug fixes, we will now shift our focus to educating our users about IndexNow and how it works. -- Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any confusion caused. Please note that Shopify takes a couple of days to review and publish app reviews, which is why we were not aware of your issues until now. For immediate assistance, we always recommend contacting us directly at [email protected]. Regarding your expectation for the app to automatically submit all your existing pages, this is not how the IndexNow protocol works. As an official Bing IndexNow partner, we adhere to their guidelines, which recommend submitting URLs only when changes occur. Automatically submitting existing URLs without changes could negatively impact your crawl rate, indexing, and rankings. Our app is designed to submit URLs when you create a new page or update an existing one, ensuring efficient and effective indexing. We strive to communicate these details clearly in the welcome email, FAQs on the app dashboard, and the app listing. However, we understand there may be some confusion, especially for users transitioning from gray hat SEO indexing apps. We're committed to improving our communication and support to better meet your needs. Regarding the contact page issue, we've been unable to reproduce it on our end. We will reach out to you directly to gather more information and provide the assistance you need. Thank you for your understanding. We're eager to hear from you and improve our app to better serve you.

This is my second app from klipp.tech. I like apps from this developer for their clutter-free, minimalist approach. I installed this app some time ago and forgot about it until I opened it and checked my submission logs today. The app has been submitting all of my updates and new products in the background. It works like a charm.
Thank you for the amazing review, Sandeep! We’re thrilled to hear that you appreciate the minimalist design and functionality of our apps. We’re grateful to have you as a repeat customer and look forward to continuing to provide you with reliable and efficient solutions. Thanks again for choosing klipp.tech!

I have a Shopify store. My Google ranking has always been outstanding, 1st page, but Bing and others have faltered miserably. My listing on Bing showed on the third and fourth pages. I installed the Instaindex app and checked my ranking a few days later. My store ranked #1 for stores selling my product! The customer service has been great. They have gone the distance in service and support. Great company to work with!
Thank you so much for your review, Frank! We’re thrilled to hear about your success with InstaIndex and the improvement in your Bing rankings. While InstaIndex efficiently pings search engines about changes on your site, enabling faster crawling and indexing, the credit for the significant increase in rankings mainly goes to your ongoing efforts to improve site quality, relevance, and reach. We’re glad our customer service could support you along the way. Thanks for choosing to work with us, and we look forward to continuing our collaboration!

What truly sets InstaIndex apart is its user-friendly interface and exceptional customer support. The app is seamlessly integrated into the Shopify dashboard, making it a breeze to manage and monitor indexing processes. And if you ever encounter any issues or have questions, their support team, led by the incredible Raj, is always ready to assist with prompt and knowledgeable responses.
Thank you for the great review, Vivek! We’re delighted to hear that you found InstaIndex’s interface friendly and easy to use.

This is an essential app for all Shopify stores. It allows new and amended product descriptions to be indexed by Bing and related search engines within hours. We have been waiting for an app like this for a long time, and klipp.tech has taken the lead in producing it. Support has been excellent. Raj and his team have proactively ensured this app works effectively. Initially, we had an issue with Manually submitted pages, but Raj fixed it within hours! klipp.tech is now working on automatic submission for Collection and other page types. This will likely be live when you read this. Let's hope Google wake up and smell the coffee. They need to support IndexNOW. Bing has been a great source of B2B leads as many corporate customers use Bing as their default search engine. The search traffic from Bing is lower than that of Google, but the quality for us is much higher. The app is well priced and should be a no-brainer for all Shopify stores.
Thank you, John, for your fantastic review! We’re delighted to hear that InstaIndex has been a game-changer for your store. Your early feedback was crucial in enhancing the app for everyone. As we’ve discussed in our emails, the automatic submissions for collections and the easy submission option for pages and articles were released just hours after your review. We apologize for the delay in our public response. Thanks again for your support and for choosing klipp.tech!
