So ensure that to verify your protection report in Google Search Console to see if there are any main modifications within the listed versus not listed report.
This isn’t going to be a enjoyable bug for a lot of SEOs to report on to their purchasers or stakeholders. For all of you who had been telling your purchasers X pages of the positioning is listed by Google and now you want to inform them that solely Y pages had been listed, that isn’t going to be enjoyable.
