I did a new site one week ago, so then, I tried to follow the EEAT process by adding all the necessary pages up to adding "about me profile" with my picture. I went on to create social media accounts as to add them on the site.

After the first day of adding the site to search console, the main page was indexed as usual and it wan ranking on the domain keyword. But later on as of yesterday, Google drop the ranking of the domain and move the social media accounts up instead of my initial domain that was ranking number 1.

Also, Google refused to index the posts on the site but went on to indexed the social media handles I created for the site.

What should I do like this as I am getting really frustrating because the last recently Google update destroyed my site and I had to start afresh by building something good, but all to no avail. Is it that low key Google update has affected the new site cause when I said am really frustrated, I can tell you that I mean it

New site got hit hard—indexed at first, now socials outrank it and posts won’t index. Check Search Console for crawl errors, fix robots.txt/sitemap, and boost on-page SEO with unique content. Recent Google update might be targeting low-authority sites. Anyone else seeing this?

There's no crawl errors on the search console. I don't know what to do again honestly. I keep wasting money on buying domains with proper time I spend on doing the site. All wasted, I took time to arrange posts well and write them. But there's no recent Google update that I might think.
 
If the site is one week old, everything is possible and it does not matter.

Just keep working on it, google does not trust your site yet.

I am scared as it ranked the social media accounts I created more than my domain name
 
If there is nothing wrong with your site, then continue publishing content as if nothing happened. If you're using black hat tactics, then immediately check if you've done something wrong like building too many backlinks at once.

Have not done anything wrong. But I don't know why Google just drop the site ranking and decided to rank my social media pages I created
 
Site is new. You need to be patient.

It's a clear case of low authority site. Your site doesn't have strong backlinks required for branding. Even basic foundation backlinks can fix this situation.

How do I get this basic foundation of Backlinks?
 
Link your new posts from your homepage and best articles so Google finds them faster, then request indexing in Search Console.

There are many guides available in BHW to build backlinks. You should at least build some basic links like profile backlinks that establish your site.

Do not get frustated. SEO is a long term game now.
 
Google not trusting new websites is very common. You can’t make Google do anything anymore using GSC etc.

My advice: keep producing and posting content. Interlink posts where it makes sense to. Do some light backlinking after about a month of sharing posts on social media. You need to get traffic to the website even if it’s not a lot of traffic. Engaged sessions are a good thing to have before building backlinks.
 
This is fate of most of the bloggers. We cannot do much about it. I will suggest you to explore other traffic sources like social media.
 
Everyone says the site may be new, but I've lost my patience. Google is really annoying me. I feel like a stepchild. :D

I just feel everyone commenting used AI to reply me because all of them saying the same thing. Not even a reasonable solution. :D
