Massive loss of indexed pages in Webmaster Tools (can't find the culprit)
-
So this plugin has worked well for some time, but noticing a big discrepancy in indexed pages in past few weeks. Out of 506 urls, only 443 are indexed.
And on index status it’s gone from 723-691.
Any reason for this? Usually google indexes everything for me within a week.
I’ve tried google search for a bunch of my posts and everything appears to be showing up, but I’m concerned. The only other thing I could think of is that the last 2 months I got a bunch weird 404 errors for non-existent pages such as this:
I redirected all of those to my search page so they’re fixed. I thought that might explain the drop from index status but given I’ve published 506 posts, that doesn’t explain why only 443 of actual content have been indexed.
I’ve checked, tested, and resubmitted my site map and no errors were found, so I’m perplexed.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
