Rates. Flat and public.

Usually one of four reasons. Google has not crawled them yet, something blocks them (robots.txt, a noindex tag, login walls), Google crawled them but chose not to index them, or the site gives weak signals (thin content, no internal links pointing at the page). The fix starts with a Search Console diagnosis, not guesswork. I check the exact status of every URL and name the cause before touching anything.

Google visited the page and decided not to keep it in the index for now. It is the most common status I get hired to fix. Causes range from duplicate or thin content to weak internal linking or simply low crawl priority. These pages usually can be indexed: the fix is improving the signals and re-submitting, then tracking each URL until it flips.

Anywhere from hours to months. New sites with weak signals wait longest. With clean technical foundations, a submitted sitemap and manual URL submission, most healthy pages index within days. In one documented job, all 63 pages on a local services site were indexed within about two weeks. I never promise a date; I show a per-URL status you can check.

Yes, when the page is fundamentally fine. Request Indexing pushes a URL into Google’s crawl queue faster. It does not force indexing of a page Google considers low value, which is why I fix the underlying issue first and then submit. Submitting a broken page repeatedly does nothing.

No, and nobody honestly can: Google makes the final call. What I guarantee is a correct diagnosis, manual work on every URL, and a transparent per-URL report showing indexed, pending, or fixed. That transparency is why clients come back. Ranked keywords and traffic growth are a separate discussion from indexing.

Two things: your website URL and access to your Google Search Console property. If the site has never been verified in Search Console, I will walk you through it in five minutes on WhatsApp. For technical fixes on WordPress or Shopify, admin access helps, and we agree the scope before I touch anything.

Yes. Search Console access lets me see indexing data and submit URLs. It cannot touch your website files, your hosting, or your payments. You grant it from your own Google account and you can revoke it any time with one click. I never ask for passwords.

No. Automated indexing services violate Google’s guidelines and most stopped working after API crackdowns. Every URL I submit is inspected and submitted manually inside Search Console. Slower per URL, but it works and it cannot get your site penalized.

Basic ($50/month) covers a monthly indexing check, sitemap refresh and manual inspection of new URLs. Pro ($100/month) adds weekly indexed-versus-not-indexed monitoring and re-submission of stuck pages. Elite ($150/month) is daily monitoring with full coverage review and priority support. All plans include the per-URL report.

All of them. Indexing lives in Google Search Console, which is platform neutral. I have shipped work on WordPress and WooCommerce, Shopify multi-country stores, Wix sites, and hand-coded sites. Platform only changes how technical fixes get applied, not the indexing process.

Yes. Google regularly drops pages from its index after a quality reassessment, a crawl budget shift, or a change on the site itself. It is normal, not a sign that something is broken. Catching it early and resubmitting the page is the actual job, which is why de-indexed pages keep showing up even on healthy sites. The monthly plans exist for exactly this: ongoing monitoring catches drops fast instead of leaving pages out for months.
