Google has confirmed it is working on resolving an indexing issue that it says is “affecting a small number of sites.” Google said that some “sites may experience slower than usual indexing times.” The search company is looking to “identifying the root cause” and hopes to fix the issue soon.
The indexing issue seems to have started about 5-6 hours ago, around 11:30pm ET on Monday, January 31st. There are tons of complaints from content publishers and news publishers that their content has not been indexed.
Google posted an update over here at 4:42 am ET this morning saying:
We’re investigating an issue with indexing in Google Search that’s affecting a small number of sites. Sites may experience slower than usual indexing times. We’re working on identifying the root cause. Next update will be within 12 hours.
If you are noticing issues with your content being indexed and showing up in Google Search over the past several hours, you are not alone. Google is working on fixing the issue.
Google’s Search Liaison, Danny Sullivan, did reply to at least one of those concerns as well:
Will pass this on
