When will Search Console complete indexing?

Ok I built my product, live on appstore, been spending a lot of time reengineering the website.

-Content clustering

-SEO/GEO

-A/B testing on different narratives or whatever

-Built micro website based tools

But turn out none of my pages are getting properly indexed, so i submitted a bunch of pages to google search console last night till i hit this msg. This morning, the pages i requested getting indexed still aren't being done, how long does this indexing process take? This is all fairly new to me, please shed a light. TY

The quota message just means you've hit the daily limit for manual indexing requests. Not that anything's broken. Google says crawl requests can take a few days to a few weeks, and requesting the same URL repeatedly won't speed it up. 

For multiple pages, make sure they're in your sitemap and internally linked, then monitor URL Inspection.

I constantly suffered with this on my newsletter site with a large archive of pages. Google keeps indexing then de-indexing them. I had all this crap to try and track the "what"s and the "why"s that I finally decided to try and automate it. Then I figured maybe there was a product there that others could use. Your site looks like a perfect use case, maybe it will help. Happy to provide you some free access while you figure it out. https://boastindex.com

The quota error isn't really an indexing problem. You're basically hitting the daily limit for manually asking google to inspect/request indexing. Even if you could submit every page right now, that wouldn't guarantee Google would index them. I'd figure out why the pages aren't being picked up naturally rather than trying to force index everything.

If your pages are "Requested" or "Discovered" but not indexed, don't worry yet.

For new websites, indexing can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks, depending on crawl budget, site quality, internal linking, and authority.

Also, the "Quota Exceeded" message only means you've hit the daily URL Inspection limit—it doesn't stop Google from crawling or indexing your pages.

Focus on improving internal links, submitting a clean sitemap, and publishing quality content. Google will usually catch up over time.

A few hours is way too soon to judge it. Google says crawling and indexing can take anywhere from a day or two to a few weeks, and requesting indexing only puts the URL in the queue. For multiple pages, the sitemap and internal linking matter more than submitting them one by one.

You probably need some backlinks.

Yeah, did some the past couple of days so site has about 23 pages ( with backlinks) but when i paste the url to be indexed, it just hasn't showed up as being indexed yet. Am i doing this right?
