    so annoyed rn i don't get it. My sitemap is submitted, pages return 200, no noindex anywhere. Yet:

    about half of my blog posts sit in Crawled - currently not indexed. some older pages from teh same section are indexed and even rank. im trying to figure out if this is a technical problem or a quality judgment. how do you tell the difference?? id love a way to diganose this properly instead of guessing. thx in advance!!

    Most of them are only in the sitemap and a paginated archive. Nothing links to them from the main pages. idk what else to say tbh

    Use URL Inspection on a few affected pages and click 'Test live URL', then 'View tested page' :/ Check that the rendered HTML actually contains your main content 😅 If content is loaded by JavaScript that fails or loads late, Google may see a near-empty template.

    give it time after improvements. recrawling and reevaluating can take weeks. track a sample of improved pages with URL Inspection instead of watching the total count daily. fingers crossed 🤞

    nah tbh sometimes its just a new site with low authority. Ive seen pages get indexed months later without any changes. Patience is a valid strategy too. but hey ymmv
