What's going on my SEO? It is 100% gone!!

I started my website about one or two month ago,
and It started get some traffics from google.

But exactly at 29th 12AM, completely disappeared.

I assume that It is because of I have some postings generated by Gemini.
So I shut down all the postings, and made it as 410(gone) responses.

Indexs are not gone, but in SERP, I can't find anything.

What should I do and Why does it happens??

as much as I hate to say it, I don't think that google are bothered by AI content. Now, if it is BAD content, then yeah, it could be a problem no matter if it's AI or not

So I don't think that the AI content itself is the problem, as much as it's whether it's bad content...

This being said, there was a google update during that time (see link below), so it's possible that the reason for which you got traffic was because of that update, but normally you wouldn't have gotten traffic otherwise. I'm saying this because...

1) the period during which you got traffic is exactly the same period during which the update ran
2) during updates, random sites go up and down in rankings / traffic randomly

So, based on these 2 things it's possible that you've just been the lucky benefactor of google's updating algorithm, otherwise you might have not gotten any traffic (yet)...

well, this is not very smart. As far as I know there is no reward for domain age, but there is a reward for content age, and your 2 months content has lost its history if you've deleted it, which means that it might be harder to rank that content again in the future if you decide to bring it back.

This is not 100% certain, however, so bring it back again, re-create the sitemap, and re-submit it to GSC all over again (but only if the content is good, or after you improve it, otherwise - if it's been bad content to begin with - don't bother!). And don't delete aged content ever again (unless it's bad maybe, but even then, it's best to just improve it instead of deleting it)

that's not bad. The fact that your content is still indexed it means that google finds it valuable enough to keep it in their index, which many sites can't pride themselves with

So yeah, bring that content back if it's not garbage, and try to rank it somehow (improve it, build links - both internal and external - to it, etc). By the way, from what I understood, ranking takes time nowadays, so the fact that you're not ranking within 2 months is not necessarily bad. People say that ranking can take 6 month or longer now, so yeah, don't take rushed and radical measures again, keep doing things slowly but consistently, abrupt measures are never good in SEO except for when you're in dire need to salvage a sinking ship, but even then I'm not sure they're worth it...

my guess is that the reason you've ranked is because of the December update, normally you shouldn't have ranked so soon to begin with...

since your site is still indexed (therefore google still trusts it), keep working on it as usual (publish content - slowly and gradually though, don't publish 100 posts a day or other retarded number like that - build links, improve CTR, UX and EEAT scores, etc... the usual stuff). And - after 1-2 months of such slow but gradual building up - I dare predict that your site will gain rankings and traffic...

Just my 2 cents, you can obviously wait for better advice if you want

Seems like Google took your pages down from search results for a while, maybe because of worries over AI-generated content. My recommendation is to adhere to Google's standards and concentrate on producing unique, high-quality content. Also, be patient; after Google re-evaluates your sites, your search visibility can recover. To find out what happened, you should look for any coverage difficulties or manual activities in Google Search Console.

if you are a small publisher and not a company who wants to promote, you are highly likely that you will fail. They penalize websites after few months with no reason.

Thank you for the comment, I will make the postings into human-like and unique ones. Thank you for recommendations.

Most likely effect of the recent Core update.

Yeah Google doesn't care if the content is ai generated, so long it's specific and to the point.

It's a very fresh web-site, 2 months only! Actually EVRYTHING is OK for such a web-site. Wait at least for 6 months, and add content slowly, like 1 article a day.

Your drop is likely due to a Google algorithm update/test, not penalty, and rankings can fluctuate or return over time.

Google sometimes pulls a plug to see if a site is blackhat. Just keep publishing content unless there are any errors or penalties in your console.

2 month old site + sudden pop then flatline usually isnt a penalty - its Google testing you during a core update. You nuked your own chance by 410ing content, that tells Google "this site has nothing left" so SERPs vanish instantly. AI content isnt the issue, thin + unproven site with no trust is - bring pages back, improve them, publish slowly, let it age, check GSC for manual actions but 99% this is sandbox + update volatility.

Are you kidding? Why you used 410?? It ruined everything.
You were in need just wait for 2-3 weeks. Oh, man...

Sounds like a sandbox or quality hit, not a manual penalty.

New sites often drop suddenly after a short “test” period. Using AI content + nuking pages with 410s can make it worse, not better.

Google core updates (GCU) Maybe but it’s not the only reason
GCU reshuffle rankings, so some sites drop even if nothing changed.
Your site is new and had weak or auto-written posts, which makes it more unstable during updates.

The fix doesn’t change:
Keep only strong, original content.
Remove or rewrite weak posts.
Improve trust and usability.
Give it time and monitor Search Console.
Quality is the only long-term solution.

This actually looks normal for a very new site. Google often gives new sites a small boost at first, then pulls them back to reassess - it’s sometimes called the honeymoon phase. Setting a lot of pages to 410 can also cause a sudden drop because Google loses signals fast. It’s probably not just the AI content. I’d focus on rebuilding with a few solid pages, keep them indexed, and give it some time. Traffic usually comes back slowly if the site is clean and consistent.

Most websites issues can be found using free google tools.

New site sandbox or algorithm hit; removing pages with 410 worsened visibility—wait, improve quality.

If the posts were AI generated and didn’t add much value Google’s systems might’ve flagged the site after a quality reevaluation that’s common with new sites.

Most likely, the reason is a recent Google Core update. Since your content was created using AI, there is a high chance that it was low quality, not original, and contained details that already exist on other websites.

Google usually does not apply manual penalties for AI content, but if the content is unoriginal and low quality - which is often the case with AI generated content without human editing - there is a high likelihood that you were hit by an algorithmic filter for weak AI generated content.
