Description

Problem

No IndexNow key file or pings detected. Low priority for a static site, but it would speed Bing/Yandex/Naver discovery of new blog posts.

Fix

Add an IndexNow key file and ping on deploy via a Netlify build hook.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the static site's Netlify deployment configuration and existing build or deploy entry point. Add the IndexNow key file and configure the deploy hook to send pings for new blog posts. Done means the key is available and deploys trigger IndexNow discovery requests for Bing, Yandex, and Naver.
