  • Pages are only updated when certain fields are updated (title, description, keywords, modifiedDate).

  • The pages must be visited (i.e. the page and the script are loaded) within 30 minutes of updating or being added for it to be indexed.

Additional details:

  • Behind the scenes we check every 15 minutes to see if a instant index ‘ping’ has occurred. If the conditions above have been met the request then enters the crawlers queue, so the actual indexing usually occurs within 1 hour of the original request.

  • If you are serving this tag to the page dynamically for example via your ad server it can break the mechanism if our script is ‘wrapped’. To test this go to a page where the ping-back should be firing, open the browsers developer tools and in the console type SJ (see image below)

...

If SJ appears in the drop down menu like the image above then the ping-back has installed correctly. If not then try replacing this line of code:

Code Block
var _sj = _sj || [];

in the ping-back with:

Code Block
window._sj = window._sj  || []
