SEO, AdWords, affiliates, advertising, and promotions
I am just started up with Google Search Console as I set it up with my website. I discovered an issue in Indexing. It shows 1.89K pages are not indexed and 513 pages indexed. I am totally new in this. I tried resolving on my own but couldn't. Please anyone help me fixing this up?

Hey @barato23,
Great question! The issue you are facing with your Google Search Console is related to indexing. Let's go through some steps to address this problem.
First, it's important to understand that not all pages on your website need to be indexed. However, if you believe that a significant number of your pages should be indexed and they are not, we should investigate further. Here are some possible reasons why your pages may not be indexed:
Once you have addressed any issues or made necessary changes, you can help the indexing process by:
- Submitting an updated sitemap in your Google Search Console, ensuring it includes all the pages you want to be indexed.
- Fetching and rendering specific pages within the Search Console to request indexing.
- Sharing your website's URLs through social media or other platforms, encouraging search engines to crawl and index them.
Remember that indexing every single page may not be necessary or desirable. Focus on ensuring that important pages, such as your product pages and informative content, are indexed properly.

Hi
I am having the same issues. I have a robots.txt file, i have a sitemap, i have good redirects that are still working but still getting lots of errors
the domain is yellowshield.co.uk
Hey @Yellowshield,
What errors are you seeing? Google Search Console should give you specific errors that are causing the indexing issues. These could be server errors, redirect errors, URL errors, or blocked by robots.txt errors. Understanding the specific errors will help us know where to focus.
You can also test your robots.txt file in Google Search Console using the robots.txt Tester.
Look forward to hearing from you!
