    Hi,

    After updating the latest security update for my website traveljots dot com, My posts are not showing up on Google search results. Before this update all my posts used to show on googl search results within 20 minutes, but now they are not showing up at all.
    Please help.

    The security update does not (actually cannot) affect how Google indexes your site. Were you using an SEO plugin?

    Hi,

    I was using Google Sitemap plugin. I used to do fetch as Google for all my posts. All the posts have been fetched and submitted to Index. But in Index status graphs in google index option, shows the graph has become linear after 10 Aug 14. From that time onwards, posts are not being fetched. I tried uninstalling google sitemap, it didnt solve the problem. Then I installed SEO yoast, but it didn’t solve the problem too.

    I use managed WP hosting, Godaddy has sent me an email on 09 Aug 14, saying they had updated my site to version 3.9.2 and I am doubting, that it has caused the problem.

    I must mention that everything was fine prior to 10 Aug 14.
    Also, I checked my ht access is presently,

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>
    
    # END WordPress

    Main Plugins used are Jetpack, All In One Schema.org Rich Snippets, Growmap Anti Spambot Plugin all were updated to latest versions.

    Additional information”
    Godaddy website was showing that they have a known issue that wp-cron file has been disabled. However, today morning it has been resolved.

    Thanks for all the help.

    Well, Google will be Google, there isn’t really anything we can do about that. They change how things are crawled and ranked in their index all the time.

    There definitely isn’t anything is basic WordPress that would prevent Google from indexing your site, unless you set it as such via Settings -> Reading in your blog’s Dashboard.

    You might want to get in touch with some forums that focus on SEO or Google, or if you’re still using an SEO plugin, get in touch with the support forum for that plugin.
