Google Confirms Indexing Bug – New Content Delayed In Search

Google has confirmed reports of an ongoing technical issue causing delays in indexing newly published web content. The indexing delays mean that any content published on websites now through whenever the problem is fixed may not show up in Google search results right away. Once the technical problem is resolved, previously unpublished content that was affected should get indexed by Google as usual. Publishers can check the latest updates on this indexing issue via the Google Search Status Dashboard. In the meantime, be aware that search visibility for new articles and other pieces of content will likely be reduced until Google corrects the underlying technical issue.
