Then, create a sitemap for your website. It's like a map that shows Google all the pages on your website. Make sure it's in the XML format and upload it to your website. Finally, submit the sitemap's URL to Google Search Console. Usually, within a couple of weeks, Google will start indexing your website, which means it will add your pages to its search results. This can sometimes take a bit longer, but submitting a sitemap is a good way to speed things up.
