Custom Component to Implement Multiple Crawls

For SEO purposes, I need a simple way to populate custom page that lists all the current blog articles. We do not score well on search engines, for reasons we have been unable to determine, so we are trying to jumpstart better results. I've tried building an API call to do this, and basically get no results. (I have little experience with programming via APIs, and all of the documentation on Lithosphere expects one to already be an expert. However, I can do a crawl of a blog and get the articles. It's just when the crawl ends, even though the component calls for another crawl, nothing happens. I tried multiple single-crawl components called by a higher-level component (think classic procedural programming), but same thing happens.
If you are calling into the community from another application to crawl the boards ,you probably don't want to call a component on a page, but want to call either an API (Here's the REST API V2 getting started page and how to make a REST call via Freemarker section of that page) or an Endpoint.
If you want to share your component code though, I could possibly offer some advice on what you might want to try.
Thanks,
