Ok guys, so today I've got one subpage deindexed (big domain, great recognized brand). This domain got hit in May update, then biggest traffic subpage got deindexed today. No manual actions in GSC. Already send to reindex. What do you think? Anybody experienced it last time? What to do?

Other subpages are fine.
 
Ok, in GSC I have this url as ‚excluded’. According to G website, it looks like it has noindex tag or something. Onpage negative seo? :|
 
There is no "onpage negative" seo as this is yours site. So this can be mistake by some implementations. After you delete that tag or header it should bring back to positions.

Unfortunately, there is no noindex tag.


GSC says:
URL is not on Google
This page is not in the index, but not because of an error. See the details below to learn why it wasn't indexed.



Crawled - currently not indexed



What the hell it can be? I didn't made any changes last days/weeks on this subpage. It's a product page btw.
 
Probably a Google bug, if you resubmitted it let us know what happened.

tried few hours ago, still not indexed. It' s strange because it's not a new website with shitty backlinks, but strong, local brand.

What type of content on the page has been deindexed?
Checked if it has not been duplicated
 
When is the content on the page that has been deindexed?
Checked if it has not been duplicated
No, it is 100% manual written. The product page has been in top for 100's of keywords till May update, then drop, then now - deindexed. :(

I meant someone may have copied your post, did a duplicate content test
 
checked, no duplicates. any other ideas?
No new links that point to the page?
A new buggy plugin that could have put a noindex in the code?

If the article is not complete enough (or updated), it is also possible that it has been downgraded but I would rather go for a Google bug which should be fixed in 2-3 days for your page.
 
Google has given advice about negative ranking but Google did not give any specific action to recover your page rankings. however there are some FAQs that google has answered you can read "Barry Schwartz" blog about it
 
Looks like a Google Bug. I am Back. One-day Heart attack Lol.

thanks guys, i appreciate your help :)
 
yes lately there are some issues with Google indexing. one of my website homepage was deindexed for 2 days but it came back on its own

usually this is a glitch or Google might having issues with maintaing multiple indexes
 
Minding indexing issues during this weird era is not the right thing to do, wasting your time on other things.
 
same damn thing. one main sub page is not index, it was getting traffic and it was also hugely affected by may core update.

it's been almost 3 days :/ just submitted on search console again.
 
I submitted in GSC, and it recovered on a next day. Good luck for you!
