      Hello we have 2-3 new pages being submitted every night to google/bing via our sitemap.  Two issues I am noticing.  Wondering if anyone else has same issues.

      a) 22 URL submitted via sitemap but only 1 indexed in two weeks.  there are no errors showing

      b) If i submit manually using "Fetch As Google" and request indexing - the page gets indexed right way but after a day it seems to be unindexed - it will show up when i search (site:domain.com) but then disappear from the results doing the same search a few days later.

      Is this normal or do i have a problem that needs addressing?

      thank you

        Hello Sancarlos,

        I had an issue similar to this. The issue was with my SEO plugin. Are you using Wordpress?

          It's not normal.

          To start, I'd check to make sure the content:

          • is unique
          • canonicalized to itself
          • has incoming links
          • no redirects
          • isn't blocked from indexing

          I'd also check to see if you've had any site outages that may have prevented crawlers from accessing your content.

          If your site is fairly new and/or has little traffic, it's possible you're running out of crawl budget before search engines get to those pages.
