The Waiting Game: Where Link Value and Ranking Signals Get Stuck
Think about it: that killer backlink or vital piece of content? It's practically invisible to Google's ranking system until it gets indexed. Relying purely on organic discovery puts you in a holding pattern:
- Link Value on Hold: The 'juice' from those hard-earned backlinks? It doesn't start flowing until Google actually *sees* the linking page. Every week of delay is a week you're missing out on the ranking push you earned.
- Ranking Signals in Limbo: Google needs to index content to understand what it's about and factor it into rankings. Faster indexing means Google gets the memo sooner, potentially boosting your position much quicker.
