      This is not something I have ever seen before. The site is still indexed if I search for it directly, but not in top 100 rankings for keywords even though sub-pages are ranking for the given keyword. Changes I have made recently include site transfer to wordpress, force redirect http to https removal of www by redirect and adding new property instance in Google Search Console. I have checked htaccess file and sitemap and all seem fine. ideas? Site: https://dublinSEO.co

        In sitemaps under Google Search Console I have noticed the following.

        Originally, I had added property https://www.dublinSEO.co - in this property I have 16 pages indexed.

        2 days ago I added https://dublinSEO.co - in this property my indexed pages are still pending.

        Do you think this could have somehow caused it? Google de-indexed my homepage while adding it to indexing for my new property in Search Console?

        https://dublinSEO.co is my primary domain where every variation is redirected to.

          It was due to the re-indexing in Google Search Console.
