      Hello, Smart People!
      We need help solving the problem with Google indexing.
      All pages of our website are crawled and indexed. All pages, including those mentioned, meet Google requirements and can be indexed. However, only this page is still not indexed.
      Robots.txt is not blocking it.
      We do not have a tag "nofollow"
      We have it in the sitemap file.
      We have internal links for this page from indexed pages.
      We requested indexing many times, and it is still grey.
      The page was established one year ago.
      We are open to any suggestions or guidance you may have. What else can we do to expedite the indexing process?

        Hi, we had a problem, indexing a new post, through Google Search Console, but we believe that's because they been rolling out an Google update this week, we tried this morning, and it worked, a new blog post for our website design business got indexed. so, it could be because of an algorithm update rolling out?

          I launched a website about two months ago that got indexed right away. However, after 25 to 30 days, when I checked again, it was de-indexed, but then it got indexed again.

          After that, the website's position in the search engine results page (SERP) was fluctuating. Can someone tell me what the issue might be?

              If a particular page cannot be indexed by Google, it could be due to several reasons:

              1. Noindex Tag: The page may have a noindex meta tag, instructing search engines not to index it.
              2. Robots.txt Block: The page might be blocked from crawling in the robots.txt file, preventing Google from accessing it.
              3. Lack of Quality Content: Thin or duplicate content may cause Google to avoid indexing the page.
              4. Technical Issues: Broken links, server errors, or incorrect canonical tags can also prevent indexing.
              5. Manual Actions: Google might have applied a manual action if the page violates their guidelines.

              Addressing these issues can help the page get indexed properly.

                If your page cannot be indexed by Google, it could be due to several reasons. Make sure the page isn’t blocked by robots.txt, that it has a valid noindex tag, or that it's not set to 'noindex' in your CMS. Also, check for any crawl errors in Google Search Console.

                By the way, while you're troubleshooting, you can use tools like this website to keep track of your tasks or deadlines. Hope this helps!

                  This page cannot be indexed by Google, potentially affecting its search visibility. To enhance your site’s SEO, consider leveraging [WordPress plugins] or other tools to ensure your content is fully accessible to search engines.

                        Can anyone tell me what I should do?

                                Hey @Viktoriia1805,

                                Would you be able to let us know the URL so we can check this?

                                Also are there any errors showing when you run the URL through the inspection tool on Google Search Console (as below)?

                                0e2cfb4c-6bed-4351-891c-b8b1c5373e0f-image.png

                                    Noindex and Canonical Tags: Verify no noindex tags or conflicting canonical tags are present.
                                    Content Freshness: Update the page content regularly.
                                    Page Speed and Mobile Usability: Ensure the page is fast and mobile-friendly.

                                          My posts are ignored by google not sure why

                                          indexing google

                                          I have been investigating this problem for some time now and there must be a technical problem. My posts seem to be ignored by google. For example, if i put this title of my article in google, other sites come up instead of my website Lincolnshire Caravan Owners Struggle To Compete With Haven https://www.in2town.co.uk/skegness-news/lincolnshire-caravan-owners-struggle-to-compete-with-haven/ I am trying to find out what technical problem I have that is stopping google displaying my post. Can anyone advise me on what tools to use and how to find out what is going wrong

                                          onpage

                                          This is a question for the organic SEO experts, once you added the main keyword that you want to rank for in the homepage title, meta title plus meta description, perhaps once or twice in the text on the homepage. How often do you then write it in the content marketing, say blog posts, we want to rank higher on Google for "SEO agencies Cardiff" however if you mention this in the blog posts too much say once a week, this could lead to over optimisation issues?

                                          Added a canonical ref tag and SERPs tanked, should we change it back?

                                          canonical indexing serps canonical duplicate url issue

                                          My client's CMS uses an internal linking structure that includes index.php at the end of the URLs. The site also works using SEO-friendly URLs without index.php, so the SEO tool identified a duplicate content issue. Their marketing team thought the pages with index.php would have better link equity and rank higher, so they added a canonical ref tag, making the index.php version of the pages the canonical page. As a result, the site dropped in the rankings by a LOT and has not recovered in the last 3-months. It appears that Google had automatically selected the SEO-friendly URLs as the canonical page, and by switching, it re-indexed the entire site. The question we have is, should they change it back? Or will this cause the site to be reindexed again, resulting in an even lower ranking?

                                          Renamed a page and created a 301, page lost its rankings.

                                          We changed a page name to fall under the root of our site from domain.com/page1/page301d/ to domain.com/page301d/ and after 2 weeks it still is not back to its #3 position. Now it is on the bottom of page 3. I cant figure out what im doing wrong here. The original .com/page1/ that this page fell under was removed totally and redirected to antoher page that was more relevant. I went ahead and re-enabled this page and its contnent, because the page was linking out to the page we 301d. This page we re-enabled had about 150 links poitning to it and therefore i was thinking that maybe the link juice from this page (or relevancy) via an internal link was helping it rank. This was updated about 6 days ago and the internal link is back Any other ideas why this might not be working. Ive checked all the 301s, content has not changed on the page. We have updated the strcuture for many pages. Instead of having the pages in question fall under anotehr page, they all fall under the root and its sub content is now only 2 levels deep , instead of being 3. hope that makese sense.

                                          Form Only Pages Considered No Content/Duplicate Pages

                                          We have a lot of WordPress sites with pages that contain only a form.  The header, sidebar and footer content is the same as what's one other pages throughout the site.  Each form page has a unique page title, meta description, form title and questions but the form title, description and questions add up to probably less than 100 words. Are these form pages negatively affecting the rankings of our landing pages or being viewed as duplicate or no content pages?

                                          Is Google indexing something I can't see on my page title?

                                          When I do a search for my businesses website (colourpages.com) it returns a listing which is great but the title tag includes Hull Colour Pages which is our old brand name - we changed to colourpages.com 2 years ago yet Hull Colour Pages is still pulling through on the title tag. I have checked the source and it's as follows: <title>Plumbers in Hull - Reviews - colourpages.com</title> I have attached a photo which shows the issue - http://imgur.com/Cva3001 Is Google indexing it from old history that is no longer visible or am I missing something?

                                          Some of my pages are ranking for terms which I want other pages to rank for. What can I do to effectively switch the ranking?

                                          Some of the pages are ranking for terms I have optimised other pages for. The pages which are ranking are quite rightly falling, because they aren't optimised for the terms they're showing for. However, I have pages which are optomised for those terms. How do I switch the SERPS to the page I want?

                                          Google Penalty?

                                          What are the characteristics of a Google penalty - i.e. how do you know by looking at the rankings for your keywords? Do all keywords that you had previously ranked for fall from say top 5 to nowhere? Do you disappear from SERP for a branded keyword? Or something else?? Basically how do you know if you have been penalized? Thanks
