If the recent changes you’ve made to your portfolio website aren’t showing up in Google search results yet, don’t worry; this is completely normal. Google may not have re-crawled or re-indexed your website since your last update.
Re-crawling happens automatically, but it can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks. Google doesn’t provide an exact timeline, as it depends on many factors, including your website’s activity, popularity, and structure.
Speed up the process with Google Search Console
To help Google detect your updates faster, you can request a crawl using Google Search Console.
If you haven’t connected your Portfoliobox website to Google Search Console yet, follow this step-by-step guide:
👉 Use Google Search Console with your Portfoliobox website
Once your website is verified, submit your sitemap. This helps Google better understand your site’s structure and index your pages more efficiently.
👉 Submit your Portfoliobox sitemap to Google Search Console
A note on timing
Submitting your sitemap doesn’t trigger instant updates. Google’s bots crawl billions of websites every day, so it may still take some time for your pages to be re-indexed and for your updates to appear in search results.
Patience is key; rest assured that once your artist portfolio or photographer website is re-crawled, your latest changes will start appearing on Google.
