hello
i tested api goolge to index 5 of my sites which have a lot of pages, the tool indexes the pages very well, but i noticed after 1 week, the keywors disappeared from the serp even if the pages are indexed, has anyone noticed this, thank you for your help.
 
I think still too early too tell. Give it a bit more time to stablise.
 
It has been discussed before.
Yes, when using Indexing API incorrectly - there is a quick analysis and if the site is not very good, then a penalty.

Analysis with this option goes biased, with inflated requirements.
So, don't use Indexing API for junk sites anymore if you don't want to get penalized in 5-7 days.
 
I had earlier posted on another thread related to this issue. If you use Indexing API, either your own script or Rank Math Indexing API plugin, in both cases, your pages get indexed quickly on Google, BUT after 2-3 weeks the page does not ranks for even long-tail keywords. Its not de-indexed from Google SERP, but it never ranks. This was my personal experience accross various domains from past year. Even many webmasters/bloggers reported a fall in traffic for their sites. As per Google, the indexing API should ONLY be used for indexing Job pages, and not article or blog pages.

there is the right answer,
the same will happen for most cases when try to use G News with non-News articles,

some websites might be kept under the radar,
but I've had a dozen of testing websites using these tactics 1-2 years back in time, 90% getting this kind of ban,
you'll have the website new posts indexed shortly after a couple of hours & rapidly vanishing after a day at most,
so is the case for all the of the old posts, nothing ranks as well, just getting in the G index,

OP, you might want to move on with the website,
you can try using a new domain & 301, but won't necessarily work
 
Well, personally I had the same - posts indexed quickly and then deindexed after week or couple of days and rankings vanished.

There are some services that provides paid indexing of own sites and their are using the same API.
And there are no drops from index and / or in rankings by indexing 200 pages / day.

So I asked - how? And showed threads here about many users sites gone bad after using indexing API.
The answer - it is normal when using API on AI (or translated / machine generated / spun) content.

is it should be human-writen ?
 
I have a similar problem. I have a new website, it is a language version of an online store on a separate .de domain. We launched it in January and used Google Api Indexing to speed up indexing. And a month later, the site lost all organic traffic, some pages dropped out of the search results. Having studied this topic, we learned that Google can lower the site's position due to unhelpful content. And since the site is a language version, the structure and products of the site are very similar to another language version.

What did you do in that situation?
 
Sounds like Google just testing your pages. Instant indexing doesnt guarantee stable rankings. If they drop after a week it’s likely a quality/trust issue or Google algo filtering low value content.

Try internal linking, engagement signals and fresh content updates to keep them ranking.
Also check if they’re still indexed with:
Code:
site:yourdomain.com
