A couple days ago I noticed doing my general daily work that URLs/pages I was trying to index across any site of mine (not wordpress.com) seem to suddenly not be indexing like normal. So I created a wordpress.com blog to test if I would notice something similar with them because those pages should index no problem. And sure enough after doing everything possible yes including sitemap submission none of my posts are indexing. These pages are totally unique content I created. What the heck is going on ?
 
It can take weeks for search engines to index your site content. We have no control over search engines positioning or appearance in the SERPs (search engine page results).
 
I do experience before web 2.0 like edublog. Only paid account will get indexed.

If this matter it will be pointless to use them already
 
I have made plenty of other wordpress.com blogs for different topics in recent weeks and they all index instantly. I have never had this happen.
 
So I turned on my DeepCrawl extension and notice that whenever I create a second post on any wordpress.com blog it makes every page except the first post have a Paginated 2+ reading for the posts. Did it always do this ? And why is this happening now when it never did before ?
 
Hi, Normally Google takes a week to index website.
Hope you’re are using Seo yoast plugin for SEO purposes.
Kindly check the below things in your website.

1. Canonical Url Updated?
2. Sitemap frequency updated?
3. Check crawl errors and security issues in google search console.
4. Check your robots config

To index your site faster,
Navigate Google Search Console -> Crawl Fetch as Google

In Wordpress, posts, pages, portfolio items, author pages, or any other type of content are essentially all the same - dynamic content that is output as static HTML, and as long as a page, post, etc. is not explicitly telling a search engine to noindex (like a meta tag or robots.txt), it will be crawled and indexed.
Google takes between four days and four weeks for your brand new website to be crawled and indexed by Google.
 
It's cuz they use Gutenberg and all those crazy html comments it looks like shlt to the google bots
