Update 1.92 – Revamped Google Indexation Checker
Since our last big update when we added Lighthouse data to Page Speed, we’ve run a number of low-key updates that didn’t warrant a blog post about them. But this time we’ve got a fix to a core feature, so we suggest everyone jumps on this new version of the software. Improved: Google Indexation Checker […]
