On "Job Boards Say Google Indexing API Requests Get No Response"

Google's silence on the Indexing API is starting to feel deliberate, and that's a real problem for anyone running content at scale who can't afford to wait months in a black box. The approval process has no published SLA, no appeals mechanism, and no transparency—which means job boards are stuck either crawling at organic discovery speed or burning budget on alternatives like Bing. For practitioners, this is a reminder that relying on Google's gated APIs for time-sensitive content distribution is a structural risk, not a temporary inconvenience. Start building redundancy into your indexing strategy now, because Google clearly isn't optimizing for responsiveness here.
