JavaScript SEO Problems: Why Google Can Crawl Your Site but Still Miss Important Content
A successful crawl proves that Googlebot fetched a URL. It does not prove that Google rendered the page, saw the main content, discovered its links or indexed the intended metadata.

IndexNow Setup Guide: Faster Bing Indexing For New And Updated Content
Publishing content is only the first step. Search engines still need to discover it, crawl it, process it, and decide whether it belongs in the index.
