Indexing fix — root cause via URL Inspection, page by page
Important pages are not getting indexed. I check each URL in URL Inspection, find the real reason — wrong canonical, hidden noindex, soft 404, thin content — and fix it. Within 14 days, 80%+ of the URLs are indexed. ₪80 per URL.
Why per-URL indexing fix matters
- ✓ URL Inspection reveals the exact reason a page is not indexed — canonical, noindex, soft 404, render error — which the summary Coverage report hides
- ✓ A page that is not indexed cannot rank. The revenue loss starts on day one of the indexing problem
- ✓ Scheduled (not spammy) Request Indexing accelerates indexing from 30-60 passive days to 3-10 active days
- ✓ Fixing soft 404s and thin content lifts the indexed-rate from 40-60% to 85-95% within 30 days
Coverage shows you summary numbers. URL Inspection shows you the real reason a specific URL is stuck. A page in Crawled - currently not indexed could be thin content, a canonical pointing somewhere else, JavaScript that never rendered, or near-duplicate text against another page on the site. The summary report cannot tell you which.
The work runs in batches of 20+ URLs. Each URL gets URL Inspection: Last crawl, Crawled page, Indexed vs Live test, root cause identified. The cause varies by page — sometimes a forgotten noindex left over from staging, sometimes a wrong canonical, sometimes a soft 404 that needs either real content or a clean 410.
Once the fix is in code, Request Indexing goes out on a controlled schedule. Twenty requests in a single day reads as spam to Google, so the pace stays at 5-8 per day. Indexing gets monitored daily and verified after 14 days. Anything still sitting in the report goes back to Inspection.

FAQ
Why does Google crawl a page but not index it?
Common reasons: thin content (less than 300 meaningful words), duplicate content against another page on the site, canonical pointing somewhere else, JavaScript render failure, or soft 404 where Google reads the page as empty. URL Inspection shows the exact reason under Indexing > Coverage details.
Does Request Indexing actually help?
Yes — but only after the underlying problem is fixed. Sending Request Indexing on a URL with a wrong canonical or an active noindex does nothing — Google will reach the same decision. After a real fix, Request Indexing shortens indexing time from 30-60 days to 3-10 days on average.
What about soft 404s?
A soft 404 is a page returning HTTP 200 that Google reads as empty or "not found" — usually empty category pages, no-results search pages, or out-of-stock product pages. The fix is either real content (legitimate 200) or returning 404/410 when the page is genuinely irrelevant. Half-measure "soft 404s" hurt Google's trust.
