Recovering Search Visibility After Downtime: Seeking Insights
At Shobha Lifesciences, we are currently facing a challenge that many website owners dread—our site has disappeared from Google’s search results following a downtime of approximately 15 to 30 days due to hosting complications. Since restoring the site, we have conducted thorough checks and audits but are still perplexed by the lack of recovery in organic visibility.
Here’s a quick overview of our findings post-recovery:
- Google Search Console: We have verified that there are no errors, manual actions, or penalties impacting our site.
- Indexing Status: All essential pages are confirmed as submitted and indexed with no issues detected.
- robots.txt File Configuration: Our robots.txt file is properly set up, and there are no disallow rules that could hinder accessibility.
- SEO Audits: Comprehensive audits reveal no critical issues affecting our site’s performance.
Despite these reassurances, our organic traffic has plummeted to nearly zero. We find ourselves struggling to rank for both branded and non-branded keywords.
We are reaching out to the community for any insights or recommendations on how to regain our search presence and improve our rankings after such an extended period of downtime. If you have faced a similar situation or have expertise in SEO recovery strategies, we would greatly appreciate your guidance. Your input could prove invaluable in helping us navigate this challenge. Thank you!
