internet every day, from new, old, high authority, and popular websites and Google
is well aware of websites that have very good authority, But Google doesn’t
know your site, which is brand new.

website exists

it to our Google Search Console, Then our website will become a part of the
Google search console and get the attention of the Google webmaster.
Before that, whenever a new user published a post on their website,
they would go to Google Search Console and send a request to Google Crawler to
index their post through the Google link inspection tool.

requests to Google Crawler.

new users but now I am here to help you and in this tutorial, I will tell you a
