Option 1 : Provide your sitemap file, if you know it

There's two main ways to get Yandex to index the pages on your website. The best way is to tell it about your sitemap file.

On the menu on the left, click on Indexing to expand the sub-menu and then select Sitemap Files. In the box, enter the full URL of your sitemap, if you know it. If you activated Sitemaps in the All-In-One SEO plugin, it will probably be <your domain>/sitemap.xml.If you don't know it, skip to the Option 2 : Add URLs to index below.

Once you click Add, you will see a notice at the bottom of the page saying the sitemap has been queued for processing. Now, I'm afraid you'll have to wait for Yandex's crawl bot to get around to processing your sitemap.

Option 2 : Add URLs to index

If you don't have a sitemap, or you don't know it, you can add URLs individually to index. At the very least, you want Yandex to index your homepage.

On the menu on the left, select the Indexing submenu and then Reindex Pages.

In the box, enter your domain name with a forward slash ( / ) at the end as shown below. If you want, you can add additional URLs from your site to be reindexed too but no more than 20 in total. Once you're done, click the Send button.

Once you've clicked Send, the URLs that you've provided will be queued for indexing. You'll be able to see them at the bottom of the box you entered them in.

It may take a while for Yandex to get around to indexing them but you can come back to this page at any time to view the progress.

As your site is probably well established, you may find it's already been discovered by Yandex but it's worth registering just to access their webmaster tools.
