Crawled - Currently not indexed - My Experience Troubleshooting the Issue

 As a SEO Analyst, one of the challenges I faced was encountering a "Crawled - Currently not indexed" status on Google for our old blog post - https://scgroup.global/blog/safety-tip-green-cleaning-cleaner-future/ (Continuity of case 2) that I worked on. After some analysis and troubleshooting, I was able to fix the issue and get the post indexed.

First, I analyzed the content, meta tags, internal, and external links for the blog post. I used the "Copyscape" tool (https://www.copyscape.com/) to check for any plagiarism issues with the content. I then edited and updated the meta tags to make sure they were properly optimized for the post. 

The title and meta description for the post were updated to:
Title: Safety Tip: Green Cleaning for a Cleaner Future | Cleaning tips
Meta Description: When you choose green cleaning products and practices, your family is safer and healthier. Find out more about the advantages of greener cleaning. The future: green cleaning, clean air quality, cleaner environment, safer spaces.

Links: I also created internal and external links for the post. 

  • The internal link was to https://scgroup.global/facility/cleaning/ and 
  • the external link was to https://www.care.com/c/7-benefits-of-green-cleaning/. I also changed the focus keyword based on relevance.

Next, I built some backlinks for the post. I submitted it to sites like 

  • https://slashdot.org/submission/17074416/safety-tip-green-cleaning-for-a-cleaner-future,
  • https://www.reddit.com/r/SecurityCareerAdvice/comments/zsg0w1/tips_for_success_on_security_guard_job/ and 
  • https://www.reddit.com/user/Southerncrossgroup/comments/zsg2aq/safety_tip_green_cleaning_for_a_cleaner_future/


Finally, I submitted the blog post URL to be indexed in Google search console's URL inspection tool and requested indexing https://scgroup.global/blog/safety-tip-green-cleaning-cleaner-future/. I also deleted and resubmitted the blog post's XML sitemap.

After these steps, the "Crawled - Currently not indexed" issue disappeared, and the post was successfully indexed in Google. The screenshot below shows the result.

In conclusion, my experience troubleshooting this issue taught me that analyzing content, meta tags, internal and external links, building backlinks, and submitting indexing requests can help resolve this kind of issue. I hope this experience can help others facing similar challenges.
