Common questions

What's the main difference between Instant Indexing and Foudroyer?

Instant Indexing pushes to four search engines in one shot (Google + Bing + Yandex + Naver via IndexNow) and verifies indexation through the official Google Search Console URL Inspection API. Most of what Foudroyer offers focuses on Google submission only and use third-party scrapers for verification.

Is Instant Indexing really cheaper than Foudroyer?

Yes. Instant Indexing starts free with 100 credits/month and drops to $0.025/URL at 2,000+ credits one-shot. Foudroyer sit at $0.04 to $0.98/URL depending on the tier. The savings compound the moment you go past 500 URLs/month.

Can I migrate from Foudroyer to Instant Indexing without losing data?

There's nothing to migrate - your URLs and your search engines stay the same. You just connect your Google Search Console account in Instant Indexing (one click) and start pushing. We don't import your historical Foudroyer data because we recompute indexation status from scratch via GSC.

Do you have an API?

Yes, available from the Agency plan ($29/month). RESTful endpoints to submit URLs, check indexation status, and receive webhooks when a URL gets indexed or fails after auto-retries.

What if Google still doesn't index my URL?

We re-push automatically at +24h, +72h and +7d. If after that the URL is still not in the index, we surface the most likely blockers (noindex tag, canonical to other URL, robots.txt block, soft-404) so you can fix the page and re-submit.

Should I cancel my Foudroyer subscription right away?

Try Instant Indexing free for a week alongside Foudroyer first. Compare the indexation rates on a sample of 50 URLs. If we match or beat them - which is the typical outcome - then cancel.
