Google Search Console has a submit URL for indexing feature. Most people use the Indexing tool for getting pages crawled by google. I just indexed 1500 pages by looking up a single URL in the Inspect Tool.

 
The other day I indexed almost 1,700 pages this way.  Google dosn't just crawl the page, it crawls links on the page.

I was checking a hacked website. This made matters worse. it actually kicked off the isue as there were just 3 dodgy pages at first. If you are facing a similar situation, you might want to reconsider using the Inspect URl Tool.

On the other hand this might be a way to get urgent news indexed. it will also be a black hat hackers tool. For that reason this page isn't getting shared by me, but I still added it in case anyone else faces a hacked site and needs the warning. 5 AI LLMs didn't warn me about it. Now there are 3.5k cloaked pages indexed on Google. 

At least I will probably get to move the website off WordPress and over to the easier to handle Duda.
