Google deindexed my pages and slow to reindex

I run programmatic SEO in high finance topics and had 15K+ pages on Google that were all indexed.

Before anyone jumps in - it's high quality content delivered via APIs (company valuation data). All pages are very different from each other. No AI involved. All linked together, all correct meta, sitemaps etc. There were all indexed before and picked up by Google and LLMs (even though my domain reputation is just around 5).

I've made edits to those pages (technical stuff, adjusting formula calculations etc). After this, half of the pages got deindexed from Google. They sit at "Crawled - currently not indexed".

Now I assume it's because of those changes? But it has been a month and nearly nothing came back. I try to "validate fix" in GSC but it gives absolutely nothing, and even fails, on pages that work and are all correct.

Anyone has any idea?

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

Clients site has a weird issue with 302 redirects that I haven't seen before.

Site is in Drupal, hosted on Amazon CDN & Cloudflare. So here's a quick breakdown: The site itself works normally. It's a bit dated, but you can click on links and navigate around as you'd expect. Seeing no obvious issues, I run a Screaming Frog crawl to begin my audit. Only 5 pages were picked up by the crawl which was super weird, since all internal links are regular html and there shouldn't be any issues. So I go through the site and manually collect a bunch of URLs, which I submit to SF again as a list. Every single link bar the 5 originally crawled return a 302, with the 'redirect' pointing back to the home page. Except as I said, those pages don't browser redirect. Browser side, they work fine. I guess they redirect the crawl bot though, since the rest of the site is functionally invisible. Other tools I've looked at say that the pages return simultaneous 302 and 200s, which doesn't make too much sense. These 302s are also old enough ...
