Sudden Ranked Drop? Google Algo Update?

Thanks for the insight. Hope you don’t mind answering some more questions :) How big was the drop back then? Is the traffic now equal to the beginning of November - like a full recovery? What kind of site is it? Whitehat? Age of the site?
Sorry for late reply.

Drop was more than 50 %. After core update, everything returned, have better ranking than before now.
Health e-com and blog. Mostly whitehat, couple of links here and there :) Age more than 5 years.
 
as per today, the indexing for the new blog is still not stable.. yesterday was 93 and today is 58, and it goes like that for the past couple days.. traffic are still up and down as well..

we'll see o_O
 
On Search Console Help community forum I see more indexing issue related queries than before. Google f$%ked up something again, nothing special...
 
This is problem with indexing via GSC inspection tool, our problem is with sitemap/mobile usability I think. But idk, I don't understand anything in this story :/

I think this is the same problem, Google have huge issues on their side especially with indexing (numerous threads on forums/twitter) and they still are not doing anything.
 
right, nothing is wrong..
lol
I think there will be update this month.. hope that will fix every mess
 
"in fact, John Mueller implied nothing is wrong"

Doesn't even need to be mentioned anymore at this point. Any time something happens you can just write: "in fact, John Mueller implied nothing is wrong"

I stopped listening to anything John M says a long time ago. He doesn't have a clue
 
Many people in this forum complaint that all indexing services not working.. it seems bigG have indexing issue right now, or they have changed something in their algo.

I think that they are trying to do something with this indexation issue, that's why we see those changes, it's a pity that those are changes for the worse at this momemnt. We need to wait.
 
There is always an indexing issue before or during aglo update, apparently, there is one going on now.
 
rollercoaster ride.. we all have to wait patiently.. sooner or later they will fix this issues (or not issues for them) after all..

meanwhile.. keep the posting updated as usual and build new sites..
I'd say middle-february will be much better.. I hope
 
All I do is read your comments guys about deindexing pages.

But I'm observing a strange phenomenom for the last 2 or 3 days - my indexed pages are growing more and more.

At the beginning it was 262 results in G for my site (that's exactly how many pages I have). Yesterday the number of indexed pages was 424, now it's 529.

However, I can only reach to page 26 of the results, and G says only the most relevant results are displayed, entries similar to the 262 already displayed are omitted.
