Indexing Pages
-
Hi,
I’m having issue indexing pages and I’m struggling to understand why out of my 12 pages, 3 of them are live on google. Google Search Console isn’t providing me I feel with a sufficient answer.
The two reasons it states on ‘Indexing, Pages’, is
1: Discovered Currently Not Indexed – Validation Passed. A majority of pages not indexed are due to this. Some pages I created months ago are on this. If Validation has passed, why are these pages after so much time not appearing in google search results?
2. Crawled Currently Not Indexed – A few of my pages not indexed are due to this. I’ve started validation again with this.
I’m just not certain what to do as I’ve been waiting months for my pages to appear on Google. Will these pages never appear? Is there a way around this?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hello,
You can ask Google to recrawl your site by following the steps in this guide https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/crawling/ask-google-to-recrawl?hl=en&visit_id=637483804915793207 -3175171168&rd=1
I used Lighthouse’s tools to diagnose your site, and there were no severe problems with the diagnostics.

Generally speaking, there are several reasons why your pages may not be appearing in Google’s search results:- Technical issues: If your site has broken links or slow load times.
- Duplicate or low-quality content.
- Lack of backlinks: Backlinks from other sites can help indicate to Google that your pages are valuable and relevant.
- Submit a sitemap: Submitting a sitemap to Google can help ensure that all of your pages are indexed and included in search results.
You can also submit your site to Google Search Console and see if any errors or issues need to be resolved.

I also have some questions, so I’ll tag the WordPress.com team to help us out. -
Hey there, so that we can have a fuller picture of what you’re seeing, which pages are not on Google? Can you share links or the page titles? We’ll see if we can spot differences between the pages that are indexed and the pages that are not.

Many thanks for that additional information.
The latest posts look quite new and so it’s plausible that Google hasn’t yet indexed the site.
With the posts published in 2022, there may be a reason why Google has not indexed these. Thankfully, it’s possible for to manually get Google to do this and is known as Fetch as Google.
I’d recommend this page here: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9128668?visit_id=638096367393415051-3985525886&rd=4 on how best to do that.
I hope this helps.
