As a long-term website operator dealing with the AnQiCMS content management system, I am well aware of the importance of content creation, publication, and optimization.In today's search engine environment, timely inclusion of content is crucial for website traffic and visibility.The built-in link push function of AnQiCMS is designed for this purpose, it can help us actively inform search engines that new content has been published, thereby accelerating the inclusion process.However, it is not enough to configure the function properly; we still need an effective method to determine whether the function has truly been successfully enabled and is functioning.

Understand the importance and necessity of link push verification

In AnQiCMS, link push is part of its 'Advanced SEO Tools', aimed at promoting timely crawling and indexing of pages by submitting new or updated page links to major search engines.This has incalculable value for improving the ranking of the website in search results and ensuring that the latest content can be quickly accessed by users.

As an operations person, we cannot be satisfied with just completing the configuration on the back end; we must also verify its effectiveness.Valid verification not only confirms the normal operation of the function, but also helps us to discover and solve potential configuration problems in time, and avoid missing valuable inclusion opportunities due to failed push.

The direct verification method of AnQiCMS backend

AnQiCMS provides an intuitive and efficient backend interface, allowing us to directly view the execution results of link pushes.This is the most direct and primary way to judge whether the function is successfully enabled.

You can navigate to the "Function Management" module of the AnQiCMS backend and then select the "Link Push" option.On this page, you will see an area named "View Recent Push Records".This area will record in detail the status and feedback information of each link push attempt.

After we configure the active push interface for different search engines, the system will try to push whenever there is new content published or updated. We should pay close attention to these records:

  • Baidu search active push:When you see that the push result containssuccessthis usually means that the content has been successfully submitted to Baidu. For example, if it shows as{"error":0,"success":1,"not_same_site":0,"not_valid_host":0,"fail":0,"remain":999999,"success_urls":1}, thensuccess:1this means that a link has been successfully pushed.
  • Bing search engine active push:The sign of a successful push for Bing search is seeing something similar{"d":null}return results. This means Bing has received your push request.
  • Automatic submission of 360/Toutiao and other JS:Due to the search engines using JavaScript code submission methods, the push records on AnQiCMS backend usually do not display the directsuccessorerrorStatus. Usually, the background will record that the script code has been successfully implanted on the page, or prompt you to paste the obtained JS code into the specified area.At this point, the focus of the verification will shift to checking whether the website's front-end page has loaded these JS codes correctly, and whether the indexing of these search engines has improved.

I usually recommend publishing a new test article after completing the link push configuration, then immediately check the "recent push records" to confirm that the system can send push requests to search engines in a timely and correct manner.

Cross-verify using an external search engine platform

In addition to the direct feedback from the AnQiCMS backend, we can also log in to the webmaster platforms of various search engines for deeper cross-verification.This not only confirms whether the push has really been received by the search engine, but also allows us to understand the actual inclusion effect.

  • Baidu Search Resource Platform:Although the AnQiCMS backend can provide initial feedback, the feedback of Baidu's API submission data is not real-time, and it usually takes until the next day to see the API submission records on the Baidu Search Resource Platform.You can log in to Baidu Search Resource Platform, go to the 'General Inclusion' under 'API Submission' page, and check for any new submission records.If the AnQiCMS background shows success, but Baidu platform has no records for a long time, it may be necessary to further investigate the configuration or network issues.
  • Bing Webmaster Tools:Bing provides a more real-time feedback mechanism. You can log in to Bing Webmaster Tools, go to the "URL Submission" or "IndexNow" pages, and view the list of submitted links and their status.If AnQiCMS dashboard displays{"d":null}The Bing platform usually updates the corresponding submission record immediately.
  • Other search engine webmaster platforms:For search engines pushed through JavaScript code (such as 360 Search, Toutiao, etc.), due to the lack of direct API feedback, our focus of verification will be more on the inclusion statistics of their webmaster platforms.Regularly check the index volume reports and crawling diagnostics of these platforms, observe whether the newly released pages are gradually included, and whether the overall index volume shows a growth trend, which is the main way to indirectly judge the effect of JS push.

As an operations manager, my experience is that the 'success' status recorded in the background is a good start, while the actual records in the search engine webmaster platform are the final confirmation.The combination allows us to have a comprehensive and accurate grasp of the effectiveness of the link push.

What should be checked if the push fails or the status is abnormal?

If the push record in the AnQiCMS backend shows a failure, or if the external search engine platform does not receive the expected link, you need to investigate:

First, carefully check that the API interface addresses and keys filled in under the "Link Push" feature in the AnQiCMS backend are completely correct, with no extra spaces or characters.Any minor error can cause the push to fail.

Secondly, check if the server network connection of the website is normal, ensure that AnQiCMS can smoothly access the search engine's push interface.The firewall rules or network configuration may sometimes hinder normal external communication.

Finally, check the AnQiCMS system log (if provided), which may contain more detailed error information to help you locate the problem.In some cases, the search engine's push interface may be temporarily unstable, you can wait for a while and try to push again.

By thorough inspection and verification, we can ensure that the link push function of AnQiCMS continues to effectively support the SEO performance of the website, allowing our high-quality content to be discovered faster and more broadly by the target users.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Why do I not see the submitted records in Baidu Search Resource Platform even though AnQiCMS shows that the Baidu push was successful in the background?

AnQiCMS Backend DisplaysuccessYour website has successfully submitted the link to Baidu's push interface.However, the "API submission" records of Baidu's search resource platform are not updated in real time, and there is usually a delay of about 24 hours.This means you need to wait until the next day to see the previous day's submission records on the Baidu platform.If it does not display after more than 48 hours, it may indicate an actual problem. At this point, you need to check your API address and key again, and pay attention to whether there are any new failure records in the AnQiCMS backend.

2. Can the link push feature only push newly published articles? Can articles on my website that have not been indexed or updated be pushed through this feature?

The AnQiCMS link push feature is not only suitable for newly published articles, but also for old articles.When you edit and republish an old article, the system usually triggers link push automatically.For articles that have not been included or that you want to accelerate inclusion, you can trigger a push by editing and resaving the article, or AnQiCMS backend may provide an option for batch manual push (please check the latest version features).If the content is valid, accessible, and conforms to the search engine crawling standards, it can be tried to push.

3. Do I need to reconfigure the link push feature if my website changes its domain?

Yes, if your website changes its domain name, the link push feature needs to be fully reconfigured. You need to:

  1. Under a new domain, re-submit and verify your new website on Baidu, Bing, and other search engine webmaster platforms.
  2. Get new API interface address and key on these website administrator platforms.
  3. Log in to the AnQiCMS backend, go to the "Function Management" -> "Link Push" page, and update all push interface addresses and keys to the latest information associated with the new domain.
  4. At the same time, don't forget to update your website address in the "Global Settings" of AnQiCMS, and make sure that all internal links and pseudo-static rules on all pages are correctly updated to point to the new domain name.
