Crawlers and technical
How does IndexNow work?
IndexNow works by notifying participating search engines that a website address has been added, changed or removed.
The notification can help engines discover updates without waiting for an ordinary crawl. The engine still decides whether and how to process the page.
Notification is not guaranteed indexing. It also does not guarantee that a generated answer will use the updated content.
In Seenford
In Seenford, IndexNow is technical context rather than outcome evidence; verdicts link to the exact sentences returned by engines.
Example
A site notifies participating engines after correcting a public service page.
