So here’s the thing: search engines crawl my pages, but they don’t store them.
Crawling = bot visits.
Storing (indexing) = where the money is.

If it’s crawled but ignored, the usual suspects are: duplicate content, too thin, or site trust issues.

I’ve tried strengthening content, adding internal links, and testing different submission methods. Results are mixed.

In this case, Google apparently treats your content as not relevant and therefore does not index it. Personally, I’ve never had issues with my sites in that regard, only occasionally with some $1 backlinks but otherwise never.
 
I have the same issue though I have tried many methods to overcome it. I think it’s a bug which needs to be fixed.?
 
It says crawled but not indexed. It just indexes homepage.

Because your site have no authority.

Unique inages, videos, social media presence, backlinks and so on.

Build everything around it, as any normal business should do, do not focus on content or 1 thing only, it never worked.

Use twitter long content and buy some twitter likes and point your url to force index if you want, but your problrm is bigger then indexing ; even if will index, you will not rank most likely at all.

Yes, it doesn’t have an authority, but my other sites with no backlinks do not have this problem. What is interesting, adsense even approved it in the first submission.

No problem, I also write from my mobile device. Thanks for your help.
 
I’ve run into the same issue before. Even with crawl activity, pages don’t always get indexed if Google sees them as low priority. Improving internal linking and content helps, but I’ve found building a few strong external links and making sure the page offers something unique can push indexing faster.
 
Indexing can be tricky these days. Sometimes it’s less about content quality and more about overall site authority. I’ve noticed that when the domain has stronger trust signals, new pages tend to get picked up much faster.

If your pages get crawled but not indexed it’s often due to thin content or low site trust and the fix is usually stronger content plus better internal linking

Keep focusing on making genuinely unique and valuable pages. Ensure every page serves a clear purpose. Sometimes, consistency and patience with high-quality additions are what finally tip the scales for better recognition.
