Sudden Drop in Site Performance & New Products Not Indexed by Google

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing with your website’s performance and the indexing of new products. It’s important to address these concerns promptly to ensure your site’s visibility and traffic are not adversely affected.

Here are a few steps you can take to investigate the indexing issue:

1. Check Google Search Console: Use Google Search Console to monitor your website’s indexation status. Look for any errors that Google has encountered while trying to crawl and index your site. This tool can provide insights into why your new products are not being indexed.

2. Use Rank Math’s Index Status Report: You can also check the Index Status report in Rank Math’s Analytics. Navigate to Rank Math SEO → Analytics in your WordPress dashboard, then click on the Index Status tab. This will show you the real data/status of your pages and their presence on Google.
   

3. Content Duplication Issues: Ensure that there are no content duplication issues on your site, as Google penalizes websites with duplicate content. If you find any duplicates, consider adding canonical URLs pointing to the original content you want to index.
   

4. Crawl Budget Issues: If your website has many low-quality pages, it might affect how often Google crawls your valuable pages. Ensure that your internal linking structure is strong to help Google discover all important pages.

5. New Website Considerations: If your website is relatively new, it may take some time for Google to index all pages. Be patient, as indexing can sometimes take longer for new sites.

If you continue to experience issues after checking these points, we recommend replying to this ticket so a human agent from our support team can assist you further with a more in-depth investigation.

Thank you for bringing this concern to our attention, and we look forward to helping you resolve it quickly!

Hello,

Please note that the status “Discovered – currently not indexed” indicates Google has discovered the page, and even wants to crawl the page. But this was expected to cause an overload on the site, hence Google has rescheduled the crawl.

As a result, Google may delay this crawl for several days after it has been discovered, and the crawl status will remain empty until then.

Here’s a link for more information:

Also, Google releases a new algorithmic update several times a month, and there is a good chance that your website was affected by it.

We have a full guide on that:

And if you’re using Rank Math PRO, you can see if the drop in traffic correlates to an algorithm update:

Looking forward to helping you.

Hello,

We checked the affected pages you shared, but we couldn’t find any technical issue in the page source that would hinder it from indexing on the SERP.

You can see fromn this screenshot that the page is valid for search indexing:

Please note that Google doesn’t always disclose the exact reason for not indexing content, and in such cases, there may be little we can do from a plugin perspective unless the content is of high quality and follows Google’s guidelines.
