Pinging Sitemaps using GET requests and/or IndexNow

Thanks for replying cblown . We use GSC extensively, and the tweet I added above is from Google’s Senior Search Analyst / Search Relations team lead, which indicates that simply having a sitemap available is not enough. Regular pings to the sitemap when it is updated is preferred.

From talking to other community managers it does seem like SEO is declining for communities in recent years, so it would be great to hear from anyone who has managed to combat this effectively.
