New Aged domain articles deindexing

Aditya Verma said:

Guys something strange happened today, I am working on an aged domain that I started 7 days back, and published around 8 articles out of which 6 articles I indexed through search console force indexing, and soon after indexing the article, I was ranking on the featured snippet, and on the first page for almost all 6 articles but today all my articles got vanished from SERP, I mean the articles are showing when I do site:websitename. com but when I enter the article URL in google nothing is coming up?
please give me your suggestion.. I am very tensed.

I can relate to your anxiety, because most of us worry about the same stuff when starting out:

“Why have my posts suddenly disappeared from index?”

“Why have I lost the featured snippet that I got 2 days back?”

“I had 4 visitors for 2 days straight, and today my analytics is at zero since morning.”

Just do not pay attention to any of the doubts till you publish at least 50-100 posts, and the website has aged for at least 3-4 months.

Google is known for the “Google Dance” it does with new posts (especially on a new site). Your new posts will keep bouncing on and off from the index (or from snippets) until they settle in their deserving place in 2-3 months. That’s just the Big G testing out your content and putting it through the algorithm. Even though yours is an aged domain, it's not an exception.

There’s nothing to be tensed about, especially since you had already landed some featured snippets within 7 days of starting out (that rarely happens!).

All the best, and keep publishing unique & helpful content!

I've noticed exactly the same thing on a few expired domain names that I've bought. Like you, I've published ten or so articles and everything was going really well for the first few days/weeks, then suddenly everything disappears on the serp but the articles are still indexed.

As far as I'm concerned, there's no doubt that this is a really scary new algorithmic penalty, which is no doubt aimed at quickly detecting and breaking the use of expired domain names.

It could be a new sandbox for expired domains but I don't really believe it, the fact that everything disappears from the serp in 1 day is really creepy. It's on a par with the 4-page penalty in my humble opinion.

Actually today is 4th day since that happened, and now things are coming back, not to the previous position but some articles that were ranking previously on the snippet are now on the first page but other articles that were also ranking on the featured snippet are still nowhere in Google. So i guess the best bet is to wait and keep uploading more articles.
But the thing that you stated about new algorithmic penalty, I also believe that it is somewhat true. Let's see now, expired or aged domains don't work the same way it used to work few years back.

This is somewhat of a sandbox effect
Your site needs to build some trust to stay on the first page and that takes time

It's a usual issue to face Bloggers, Even I too faced this same issue in my early days.

I read all of your replies, In common to say your domain is aged, and bought from the Godaddy auction

Did you check if your Domain on Clear Footprint, For example, If somebodies maintain a blog for a health niche, and then loses the blog. if you buy that domain and maintain it under Tech

It's completely unreal and if may previous Footprints affect your present result. may this is also one of the reasons affecting your SERP result, So you to inspect once again.
