@ohnoo_not_her Ha! Google is such a tease 
š and google has sent me a fourth email. Now they are just bald face flat out lying.
[attach]1250[/attach]There was nothing wrong with my site until this dumb update. Yāall deindex my site and wants me to fix it. The answer is no! While rolling my beautiful brown eyes š
@keydah_keys Thatās odd you only got these messages after the update. This is an automated email though ā¦ itād be worth identifying which pages have the alleged redirect. It might be an easy fix.
@keydah_keys Are you sure this is from a trustworthy source? If so, you should see the same messages in the GSC itself. These kind of messages I get in GSC plenty of times, but I never get actual emails about it. Neither do I ever ācorrectā something, Iāve been there and it is a waste of time. (only 404 errors) Only unless your website loads very slow can that still be a reason for Google to put you out of the game completely. (it happened to me before the HCU update, when Ezoic installed their ads all over the place , without my consent and I couldnāt correct it in time )
PPS: thatās when I also found out that WAās hosting sucks - lol .
@ohnoo_not_her yes I just made this image smaller. This is directly from Google themselves. I can screen shot all of my now de-indexed pages. Yes also from Google search console. Direct links back to them.
@rohanm I understand that it is an automated response to an error Google caused. I havenāt added any redirects but will check it out.
@ohnoo_not_her see image below matches with the email. Directly from Google. July 20,2025.

@rohanm lol 
Google trying to spare my feelings of being hurt. lol but hereās an image from Google Search Console lines up with my email.

@ohnoo_not_her lol 
wa hosting is even worst now. However I am going through all of the notifications I got from Google and itās still bull crap. The excuses they are giving me for deindexing my entire website is a farce. Especially when it comes to site maps. Because I personally added each site map to google console one by one. And had to wait two to three days for each to be approve.
@rohanm Iām going through all of their excuses and none lines up. Especially not having a site map. That is a trash excuse because I took my time and added a site map to each page.
[attach]1253[/attach]
@ohnoo_not_her like site maps, they are saying thereās no site maps on a lot of of those 48 pages. And Iām looking at another page showing site maps approved 38. 
. Itās the baby web dev in me thatās going to be annoyed enough to look into a way of fixing this because the excuses donāt line up. Iāll report back in a day or so. Even though I said I wouldnāt fix it
@keydah_keys To not stress you out this much, I would somehow āunsubscribeā for those mails then- lol. It doesnāt even matter anymore these days with google just being too much up-and-down, whatever you do.
@ohnoo_not_her lol maybe I will. But I like to keep my eyes 
on Google as much as the watch me.
@keydah_keys well, everyone has their fetishes hahahahaha (sorry 
)
@ohnoo_not_her lol
@keydah_keys
I checked out my Page Indexing for you on GSC, I am not going through all of it lol
[attach]1254[/attach]
Only the 404 errors.
As you can see, I have 19 404-errors, wow panique! hahahaha
But no, most of these, are from my forum, Google doesn't index a lot of these anyway, just randomly indexes forum posts. And there's basicly nothing I can do or change to force those posts being indexed.
I can't imagine that you have a lot of 404 errors?
So again, I wouldn't really worry about that. As you're not 'working for Google anymore', why would it matter anyway?
With my Africa site, I havent checked indexing in a long time, I don't care anymore, because my focus is on getting traffic through Facebook (and maybe some other socials) to this niche.
And while you're doing that, you might even "get lucky", and get indexed and ranked in Google again.
But basicly, I am writing about whatever the heck I want (sure, I have some longtail keywords in the back of my head still and still write topic clusters), but really don't care anymore what Google thinks. And you know what? it works - lol
@ohnoo_not_her lol š, well it annoyed me so I went and looked. 38 post de-indexed although the email said 48. I dugged deeper just to see they reindexed 10.
I checked all of my pages and for the most part the main issue was there was a no index meta tag for most and one had a access forbidding (403). So, i fixed that. Went back to my website to see if their was a "no index" tags on either page and guest what?!
There were zero! š Lying Google!ššš Either way. I corrected what i could because this annoyed me. I submitted a reindex. Just for kicks and giggles. I have a way around this foolishness. By hosting my links directly on Linktree. Where there is a will there is a way.
Hey Kida ... I had a bit of a scout around your website and I'm not finding anything obvious which would prevent indexing. Robots.txt looks fine. I checked the source of a couple pages and nothing obvious there either.
Even fed the source code into GPT and after having to tell it who's boss (it kept hallucinating), no problems found in the source code.
It does seem like a bit of a weird one !
@rohanm exactly! Lol I just looked this morning out of curiosity fixed the 403 error had got and resubmitted my deindex pages. Nothing wrong. Googled helpful update wasnt that much of a help to me. But i know how to work around it. Im just going to focus on restructuring my site, add more articles and such. Wont let Google stress me out behind this foolishness! 
@keydah_keys yeah ... Google has slapped me before and it hurt. HCU 23 was second time around for me and my site was not generating much income so no big loss but it just goes to show, diversification is important (says he, barely diversifying at all š¤« ).
But look at Lizzy ... she's given Google the middle finger and just focused on building multiple traffic sources. Then Google seems to sit up and pay attention. Lizzy has seen a partial recovery!
Re: the de-indexing of your site. Are all pages reporting the same issue ie: redirect problems?
