: How can I make Google crawl and index multiple pages? There are several pages on the web that are not under my direct control but contain content about a product I'm involved with. I'd like

As John Conde suggests, you should make sure all those pages have links to them. If Google is being slow about indexing them you can:


Ensure that the page(s) that are linking are popular and have pagerank
Make the links prominent on the page
Make the pages you are linking from useful for users
Put links in additional places

Unfortunately, you can't force Google to crawl webpages. Google uses its own assortment of systems and protocols for crawling and searching/indexing. You can ask Google to crawl pages from webmaster tools but that is the only method to do it. Without access to that, your best bet would be to create pages on your site with links, or to promote more traffic to the pages in other ways. The more traffic a page gets, the more it is crawled, read, and saved. You could even promote your website(s) with Ads on places like Social Networks.

Just make a page that links to those pages. Google fill follow those links and find those new pages. Just as with any page, it won't guarantee those pages get crawled or indexed, though (but those are true even with pages you do control).
