I have done the above steps still same thing.. some post im ranking on dissapeared totally and my newly publisged are not showing anywhere on search resuly but if checked and tested on google search console everything is fine all this started when the child sitemaps dissapeared on gsc.. help me
Hello,
In this case, this isn’t the issue with the indexing but mainly with the ranking of your posts relative to the desired keywords.
We can confirm that the URLs have been indexed by Google. Please note that ranking on Google depends on so much more than just your on-page optimization. You could have the perfect article and still struggle to break the top 10 in SERPs. Here are some of the factors Google considers when ranking you:
1. Your website’s authority
2. Your content’s quality and how better it is than the other article currently ranking.
3. How competitive the keyword is.
4. How many backlinks you have and if they are better than what the other guys ranking for that keyword have.
5. Your website’s crawlability.
6. Frequency of new content and content updates.
7. So much more that there is a dedicated blog post on it by Brian Dean 🙂 https://backlinko.com/google-ranking-factors
I would recommend that you keep at it and work on acquiring more links to break into the top SERPs.
You may also check for URLs in your Google Search Console and look for any coverage issues so we can identify why your content is not ranking well.
We are looking forward to helping you.
thats not the issue … even the some posts dissapeared on google… you re not helping despite my detailed explanation.. its not about ranking…. okay, why did the child sitemap dissapeared
Hello,
All the URLs you previously shared are already appearing on the Search Engine Results Page (SERP). It is likely that Google chooses to crawl your new posts via internal links and not your sitemap and Google wasn’t able to provide enough crawling budget for your sitemap.
However, you may try removing all your sitemaps from your Google Search Console and submit this variation of your sitemap instead:
https://edustuff.com.ng/?sitemap=1
See if that will change the current sitemap report you see in your GSC.
If there are other posts that are disappearing from the SERP, please share them here so we can take a closer look at them.
Looking forward to helping you.
