WordPress first check: Settings > Reading, make sure "discourage search engines" is NOT ticked. You'd be amazed how many inherited sites still have it on from development. Then verify the site in Search Console, submit the sitemap (WordPress has one at /wp-sitemap.xml unless an SEO plugin replaced it), and use URL inspection to request indexing on your key pages. After that it's a waiting game, days to a few weeks.
