That way people donвЂ™t have to download the PDF actually to see that content. John Mueller: If there is important content in those PDFs that you do need to have indexed then it might be worth including on the product page directly. Maybe these PDFs are content we have looked at or content we havenвЂ™t had time to look at from the website. WeвЂ™ll keep crawling more content from this website, and if we find something really compelling, we will include that in the index as well. So we canвЂ™t guarantee that we index all content on a website which means that for some websites, in some situations, we might have a cutoff and say we have indexed a lot of content from this website already. We are not ready yet to add a significant batch of more content. Or it might just be that we are saying we have enough content indexed from your website already. John Mueller: So if we are not able to index those pages then either we are having trouble finding the links to those PDF files which might be because they are hard to find on the website or maybe they are not in static HTML or they have a nofollow link or something like that. With regards to the indexing of PDF files, if we see links to those pages, we will try to index those pages to get them into the search results. But that doesnвЂ™t sound like your problem.

What probably will happen with PDFs is that we donвЂ™t much refresh them as quickly as normal HTML pages because we assume that the PDF files stay stable. John Mueller: In general we index PDF files like we would like other normal pages on a website. Should I just add the content on my product tab as well, so itвЂ™s in both places? Will that cause duplication issues and any idea why they wonвЂ™t index? Question: I canвЂ™t seem to get a lot of my pdfs indexed on my product pages. In the Google Hangout, the following question was asked at time 18:48: John Muller also gave insight into why such a PDF file may not be indexed, despite this. In a recent Google Hangout, John Mueller confirmed that they index PDF files in the Google just like they would any other webpage.
