Hi everyone,
I recently updated the internal linking structure of a website with about 2,000 indexed pages. No URLs were changed, but I added new category hubs and redirected many internal links to improve crawl paths.
Google Search Console shows that the pages are still indexed, but the new internal link structure doesn't seem to be reflected in the "Links" report even after several weeks.
Has anyone experienced a long delay before Google recognized major internal linking changes without URL changes? Did requesting reindexing for key hub pages help speed up the process, or did you simply wait for Google to recrawl naturally?
I'd be interested to hear real-world experiences from sites with a few thousand pages or more.
Thanks!
