Help! My Articles Are Not Getting Indexed Anymore for More Than 3 Months Now!
Hi All,
I've been posting 1 to 2 blogs per week and each blog has about 1500+ words. I do my keyword research using Jaxxy and I make sure that I use keywords with <100 QSR, Great KQI rating and 90+ SEO rankings. In addition, I try to do backlinks and internal link, post shortened links (by Bitly) to Pinterest and Facebook using etc. but in spite of this I haven't indexed any of my article for the past 3 months.
Anyone has an idea or suggest? Is a Wordpress theme can affect SEO?
Thanks In Advance!
JG

Hi there
If you have changed your theme that will affect your ranking - it did mine. Here's a link to the training I was given to "reconnect" my site: How to Install Google Analytics Using the All in One SEO Plugin And here's the link to my question with all the answers when it happened to me: Where do I go for help, my site has no traffic any more? I got Site Support to assist me - they are so awesome!

You can check all your posts using Google Chrome. Just type the following - site:yourdomainname.com - in the search bar.
Hi,
Thanks for the tip. Yes, I did try to use the Google Chrome to double check and it seems the results WA is giving is relatively the same as Google.

Hi
Always use Google Console to see if your posts are being indexed.
Use the URL inspection tool and you will probably find that your posts are being indexed.
I was relying on site content a few months ago and I wasn't getting notifications that my posts were indexed.
However, on using the URL inspection tool I found I was, in fact, being indexed almost immediately.
Good Luck
If you need any help just holla.

The most important question here is how you have checked you are not indexed? Because you might be but just not have checked it the right way.
The system here on WA that lets you know when you have been indexed is not always updated so if that is what you are using to find out if you have been indexed or not, you will not necessarily get the right answer.
HI,
Thanks for your reply. I know the WA system is not up to date but I find it weird that my all of my post starting 3 months ago just don't get indexed anymore. It is just weird because before that 3 month stint, my articles were being indexed after 2 weeks to 3 weeks or so.
I am wondering if I did something to my site to break it and that is why I am not being crawled by Google, but if that scenario is not possible then I guess I'll just review my blogs and make sure I do all the possible ways to get indexed.
Thanks.

But how did you check that your posts have not been indexed?
Because if they truly have not been indexed after this long there might be a technical issue and then you should try to contact support about this.
I don't know about the Google Console. I just searched it and there is something that I need to copy paste, correct? I will try this solution.
Thanks so much.
