      I've noticed that some of our URLs have recently dropped completely out of Google's index.

      When carrying out a URL inspection in GSC, it comes up with 'Crawled, currently not indexed'.

      Strangely, I've also noticed that under referring page it says 'None detected', which is definitely not the case.

      I wonder if it could be something to do with the following? https://www.seroundtable.com/google-ranking-index-drop-30192.html - It seems to be a bug affecting quite a few people.

      Here are a few examples of the URLs that have gone missing:

      https://www.ihasco.co.uk/courses/detail/sexual-harassment-awareness-training

      https://www.ihasco.co.uk/courses/detail/conflict-resolution-training

      https://www.ihasco.co.uk/courses/detail/prevent-duty-training

      Any help here would be massively appreciated!

          It seems like this issue is quite common lately. I have experienced something similar with some pages on my site InstPro.net which are not getting indexed properly either. any advice would be appreciated.

                          Hello,

                          since the beginning of ladykiller.nl I am having the same issues with Google to crawl sitemap(s) and index urls. I am using Yoast as a plugin for the sitemap.

                          For the moment +3620 urls are indexed, but my website has +10.000 urls :(.
                          Also from time to time I get a notice in GSC that Google can not fetch certain sitemap urls f.e. https://ladykiller.nl/post-sitemap.xml. Mostly the issue is fixed after a week or so. Please find print screen here: https://prnt.sc/Pm_h2Arjxu-k

                          Already asked on numerous forums for help, as I can not find a solution to get this problem fixed. However, without any good results so far.

                          Therefore, I am trying it here again in the hope maybe some of you guys have some better understanding of what the issue might be and how it can be fixed. All help is highly appreciated!

                          Thanks in advance for having a look into it :)!

                          Warm regards,
                          John

                            Hi there,

                            The third URL you are referencing, is actually indexed:

                            https://dmitrii-regexseo.tinytake.com/tt/NDY4NDY4N18xNDgzNjgzMA

                            As for "crawled, not indexed" - in most cases it happens because of one and only reason - Google is seeing your page as thin content, not worth being indexed. Typically it happens on bigger sites with a lot of similar pages. In your case, you got many courses, with exactly same structure. So, if the content is not completely different, then Google might deem it not worthy.

                            As for the bug you referenced - did your URLs drop off the index exactly at the time when this issue has been discovered? (aka within the last week?).

                            Do you have any cannibalization happening?

                            To me it looks like that's the case. If I do this search: "site:https://www.ihasco.co.uk/ Sexual Harassment Training course"

                            There are many pages that are indexed and are ranking: https://dmitrii-regexseo.tinytake.com/tt/NDY4NDcwN18xNDgzNjg4Mg

                            So, basically, you have pages that are more authoritative with similar content. Therefore your courses pages are dropping as thin content.

                            I would recommend doing some internal linking optimization to tell Google what is actually important. Look in GSC for internal links metrics.

                            Hope this helps.

                              Hi, I have a problem with my website. From my PC, when I search for site:nobelcom.com the homepage of the website doesn't appear, but on other PCs (different IPs) it is ok. 
                              Also any keywords that usually responded with homepage, now responds with other page. Does anyone know way this is happening. It happen before the Penguin update, and after a fetch like google and send to index, I had the homepage back on serps

                              3 days ago I sent in a new sitemap for a new platform. Its 23.412 pages but until now its only 4 pages (!!) that are indexed according to the Webmaster Tools. Why so few? Our stage-enviroment got indexed (more than 50K pages) in a few days by a mistake.

                              I have 3500 pages crawled by Google, - why is SEOMOZ only able to crawl 400 of these ?

                              I added my site almost two weeks ago to the PRO DashBoard, and so far only 404 pages has been crawled, - but I know for a fact that there is 3500 pages that should be crawled. Other search engines has no problem in crawling and indexing these pages, so what can be wrong here ?

                              I recently rebuilt a static website to a wordpress site...In the privacy settings ....the -"Ask search engines not to index this site" was checked and I didn't notice. I had a top ranking website now its completely gone off google and every where else. I have unchecked it, resubmitted a sitemap to google.....does anyone know if this is permanent damage or if there is something else I can do to help fix this......I'm freaking out

                              Have a client that migrated their site; went live with noindex/nofollow and for last two SEOMoz crawls only getting one page crawled. In contrast, G.A. is crawling all pages. Just wait?

                              Client site is 15 + pages. New site had noindex/nofollow removed prior to last two crawls.
