Guys please help me. I bought an expired domain from 2021, apparently without spam and toxic backlinks. I started publishing 5-10 posts per day, the first 3 posts were indexed (and one ranked for kw multiple), then suddenly google stopped indexing the posts. I tried speedyindex, GSC etc but google does not index anything. Index another post for one day, and then disappeared. I dont understand why one article is ranked, while the others are not and are not even indexed. i noticed that there are still old pages indexed, if this can be useful to you.
Expired domains expert, help me please

Ok, but why I have the first 3 posts indexed and one in first page for many kws? This is really strange, because I had website in the past penalized and disappeared from serp for all kws

Hey guys, I need some help. I bought an expired domain from 2021 that looks clean no spam or toxic backlinks. I started publishing 5–10 posts per day. At first, three posts got indexed (one even ranked for multiple keywords but then Google suddenly stopped indexing new content. I’ve tried SpeedyIndex, GSC, etc., but nothing gets picked up. One article even got indexed for a day then disappeared. Also I noticed some old pages from before are still mindexedmaybe that’s affecting things Any insights would be appreciated!

It seems like the issue might be related to the old pages that are still indexed. Google may be confused with the mix of old and new content on your domain. You should try to remove the old pages or update them with fresh content to see if that helps Google index your new posts. Good luck!

Please take a moment to consider this carefully:
Are you rebuilding the website or blog in the same niche it originally had before you purchased it?
For example, if it was originally a travel blog, are you continuing with the travel niche, or have you shifted to a different one?

Different one

Personally I've recently been finding my sites built on aged/expired domains are taking an age to index properly. The only remedy I've really found for it is patience, as they do eventually index and rank, though 90 days is pushing it for me
Wow, 90 days to index it’s too much.Personally I've recently been finding my sites built on aged/expired domains are taking an age to index properly. The only remedy I've really found for it is patience, as they do eventually index and rank, though 90 days is pushing it for me

Check your GSC if there any warning notif appear, wait for 1 month and keep posting regularly make sure those content not spam or full ai content, and use manual submit url content into your GSC, gl

1- Do you have AI content?
2- Is new content in the theme/niche with history? Have you checked web archive?
3- GSC is not the best option, many people do this mistake. GSC is not aimed for fast indexing in the blog. GSC will index the post quickly but deindex after some time.
4-Indexers cannot push the post to be indexed but ping the Google and make bot to scan you post. I hope, you get the difference.

1. No AI content
2. New content with completely restructured website (new theme etc.)
3. Webarchive seems fine
4. Backlinks seems fine

We had similar situation and we caught the issue before it went worse. We used one old domain, published content and all indexed and appeared in Google search for many keywords. We were monitoring the SERP, we noticed drops in SERP ranking before they disappeared completely. We reduced the bounce rate and it worked.

I bought a clean expired domain and started posting daily, but after initial indexing, Google stopped indexing new posts—any idea why this is happening
Already did, I will continue to post content

Yeah, it's been the upper limit but I'm still seeing minimums of 30 days before anything but the home page is indexed, then the rest follows suit pretty quickly.
Any experiencing about rapid index and, after 8-10 days, quickly de-index? I also have this issue with sone websites

I generally only encounter that with new domains, though sometimes with expired domains where the new site content is vastly different to it's previous incarnation.
