IndexBolt alternative

A hundred free credits is one of the best trials on the market. The guarantee behind it covers credits you never spent, not URLs Google never took.

IndexBolt sells URL and backlink indexing in prepaid credits, bought once, with no subscription and no expiry. Packs run from 500 credits at $25 to 25,000 at $1,000, which is $0.050 down to $0.040 per URL in normal mode, and an instant mode costs ten credits per URL. A hundred credits arrive free at sign-up, with no card, which is one of the two genuinely usable trials we found in this market. The homepage promises crawling in hours rather than weeks. What sends people looking elsewhere is the line under the word guarantee.

Why look for an IndexBolt alternative

Read on the provider's own pages on September 13, 2026.

  • The refund covers the wrong thing. Credits you have not used come back within 30 days of purchase. Credits spent on URLs that Google never indexed do not. So the risk you were worried about, paying for links that stay invisible, is the one the guarantee leaves with you.
  • Thirty days is a clock on the purchase. Credits never expire, but the refund window does. Buy 5,000 credits for a campaign that slips by six weeks and the money is committed, even though the credits are still sitting there.
  • The instant mode is ten times the price. One credit in normal mode, ten in instant, so $0.40 to $0.50 per URL. Speed is what you are buying, and no provider in this market promises that a fast submission ends in an indexed page.
  • The engines are not named. The pricing page does not say which search engines receive your URLs. The rest of the site is written around Google. Bing does not appear.
  • Hours, not weeks, is about crawling. The promise on the homepage is about getting Google to your links quickly. Crawling is not indexing, and the two get blurred often enough in this market that the distinction is worth keeping in mind when you compare claims.

Prices read on each provider's own pricing page on September 13, 2026. The price per URL is our division of the pack price by the credits it holds.

Speed Indexing

The guarantee is about the result. Seven days after you submit, the Google index is queried for each URL. If the address is not there, the credit goes back to your account automatically, with nothing to claim and no window to watch. There is no 30 day deadline, because the refund is not tied to the purchase: it is tied to the URL. A returned credit can go straight back into another batch, and the same URL can be resubmitted immediately.

Google and Bing on one credit. Every URL you send goes to both engines. Nothing to tick, no second purchase, no separate checker. On day seven both indexes are queried and your account shows the two answers per URL, each with its date. The credit follows Google alone: a page Bing kept and Google did not still comes back as a credit.

Prices, and where they sit. From 100 credits at $9 to 10,000 at $330, which is $0.090 down to $0.033 per URL. At the volumes where IndexBolt charges $0.040 to $0.050, the same batch here costs $0.033 to $0.046, and the credits for URLs that fail come back. The packs are listed in the pricing section.

Ten free credits, no card. Fewer than IndexBolt hands out, and worth saying plainly: on the size of the free trial, IndexBolt wins. Ten credits is enough to run ten of your own URLs through a full cycle, day seven report included, which is the part that tells you something.

Nothing unusable is billed. Before any credit is taken, each URL is inspected: noindex in the meta tag or the X-Robots-Tag header, 404, 403, 5xx, a redirect, a robots.txt block, a canonical pointing at another page. Refused means not charged. A URL your own account sent in the last 30 days is refused too, so a duplicated list costs nothing. The interface takes 1,000 URLs per paste or a txt or csv file, spreads them over 0 to 60 days, shows a table per URL with a CSV export, and has a button that resubmits the unindexed ones. The REST API takes 10,000 URLs per batch at 60 requests a minute, with a signed webhook when a batch finishes.

What Speed Indexing does not do

No instant mode, at any price. If a page has to be crawled today, IndexBolt sells that and we do not. Our free trial is 10 credits against their 100. No WordPress plugin, no Chrome extension, no Zapier. No interim report before day seven, and no standalone index checker. Bing is checked and displayed but carries no guarantee. We publish no indexing rate, because we have not measured one worth defending, and the service opened in September 2026, so there is very little public feedback about it.

Rapid URL Indexer

Rapid URL Indexer is the other end of the trade from IndexBolt: nothing free, and a real refund. Prepaid credits that never expire, 500 for $25 up to 50,000 for $2,000, or $0.050 down to $0.040, almost the same grid as IndexBolt. Unindexed links come back as credits automatically after fourteen days of monitoring, with an interim report on day four. It ships the widest integration set in this market: a REST API at 100 requests a minute, a WordPress plugin, a Chrome extension and Zapier. Apex mode targets five minutes at three credits per URL and returns one credit on failure. The claimed 91% indexing rate is the company's own figure. Google only, and no free trial at all.

SpeedyIndex

SpeedyIndex is cheaper at volume and refunds properly. It counts in tokens, 100 per indexed link, from $5 for 50 links to $500 for 15,000, which is $0.100 down to $0.033. Tokens never expire, there is no subscription, and the day seven report returns tokens automatically for anything unconfirmed, except URLs that were unreachable in the first place. Drip feeding is built in, with published daily guidance by site age, and the API takes 10,000 URLs per task. Its trial is the weak point next to IndexBolt: 100 tokens, which is one indexed link. Indexing is Google only, and the Bing or Yandex check is a separate paid product. Our earlier survey notes a break in service in November 2025 after a Google update.

UltraIndexer

UltraIndexer is the cheapest grid among services that check their work: $0.038 at 500 credits, $0.034 at 1,000, $0.030 at 10,000, $0.027 at 50,000, with credits that never expire and no subscription. It reports per URL on day seven, drip feeds over 1 to 31 days, and sells a bulk index checker as a product on the same account. On the question that brings people to this page it is no better than IndexBolt, and it says so more bluntly: no refunds on indexing credits once purchased. Its Trial pack costs $9 for 100 credits, so there is nothing free to try, and the engines are not named on the pricing page.

IndexPro

IndexPro is the cheapest way into this market: $3 for 1,500 credits. It counts at 20 credits per standard URL and 70 for an instant one, so that first pack is 75 URLs at $0.040 each, and the rate falls to $0.027 from 30,000 credits, which costs $40. Credits never expire, and 100 free credits at sign-up cover five standard URLs, well short of IndexBolt's hundred. Like IndexBolt, it has an instant mode, and like IndexBolt it does not refund: the page describes an automatic re-check on day three and support if a URL fails. The claimed rate above 90% is its own. Google only, with prices in dollars and Pakistani rupees.

Linkindexer.io

Linkindexer.io charges the same £0.050 per URL at every tier, from 500 credits at £25 to 100,000 at £5,000. There is no volume discount, which makes a budget easy to write and large batches costly next to IndexBolt's $0.040. Prices are in pounds, so the dollar amount follows the exchange rate. The free trial is ten URLs monitored for thirty days, less than IndexBolt offers but with a longer watch window, and the service also runs a bulk index checker and per URL SEO audits. Two reservations: the refund policy is not detailed on the pricing page, and the page claims an 80% success rate in one place and an 85% average indexation rate in another.

How to choose

  • You want the credit back when a URL fails. Speed Indexing or SpeedyIndex on day seven, Omega Indexer at 24 hours, Rapid URL Indexer at fourteen days. IndexBolt, UltraIndexer and IndexPro all keep the credit.
  • You want the biggest free trial. Stay with IndexBolt. A hundred credits with no card is the most generous offer in this market, and using it costs you nothing.
  • You need a page crawled today. IndexBolt's instant mode at ten credits, or IndexPro's at 70 credits. We have no express mode.
  • Bing is part of the job. Speed Indexing submits to Google and to Bing on one credit and checks both on day seven. Nobody else on this page does.
  • You are buying tens of thousands of URLs. UltraIndexer and IndexPro at $0.027 without a refund, SpeedyIndex and Speed Indexing at $0.033 with one.

Frequently asked questions

Is IndexBolt free?

It has one of the two real free trials in this market: 100 credits at sign-up, no card, and one credit is one URL in normal mode. That is a hundred of your own addresses through the service before you spend anything. After that the smallest pack is 500 credits for $25. Speed Indexing gives 10 credits, IndexPro five standard URLs, SpeedyIndex one indexed link.

Does IndexBolt refund unindexed URLs?

No. Its guarantee is a refund on credits you have not used, within 30 days of purchase. A URL you submitted that Google did not index is a spent credit. That is a purchase guarantee, not an indexing one, and the difference is the whole point of this page. Omega Indexer refunds at 24 hours, SpeedyIndex and Speed Indexing on day seven, Rapid URL Indexer at fourteen days, all in credits and automatically.

Which indexing service is the cheapest?

UltraIndexer at $0.027 on 50,000 credits and IndexPro at $0.027 above 30,000, both without any refund for unindexed URLs. Among services that do refund, SpeedyIndex and Speed Indexing reach $0.033, Rapid URL Indexer and Omega Indexer stop at $0.040. IndexBolt sits at $0.050 down to $0.040, so it is mid range on price and generous on the trial.

Can I move from IndexBolt to Speed Indexing?

Yes. Credits are not transferable, so spend or claim what you hold first: IndexBolt refunds unused credits within 30 days of the purchase date, which is worth checking before it lapses. Then sign up here and put a batch through on the ten free credits. Nothing renews and there is no subscription on either side.

Is the instant mode worth ten credits?

At IndexBolt an instant URL costs ten credits instead of one, so $0.40 to $0.50 per URL. It buys speed, not certainty: nobody in this market guarantees that a faster submission gets indexed. We do not sell an express mode at all, and we would rather say so than charge for one we could not stand behind. If a page has to be crawled today, IndexBolt and IndexPro both offer it.

Does IndexBolt index on Bing?

The pricing page does not name the engines, and the homepage is written around getting Google to your links. Speed Indexing sends every URL to Google and to Bing on the same credit and checks both on day seven. Only the Google result decides whether the credit comes back, and the Bing result sits next to it with its own date.
