Episerver Find block content

We have a block that retrieves content from another website.

Ideally, we would like that content to be indexed against the page that contains the block, but I'm not sure how this is done?

I could also remove the block and have the page type retrieve the external content if that is easier.

Any ideas? 

Thanks,

Paul

I would probably create a separate method on the page type that returns the content from external source. Then add to index by using client convention like

client.Conventions.ForInstancesOf<YourPageType>()
    .IncludeField(x => x.GetExternalData());
