Google fixed month-long delay with page indexing report

Google Search Console appears to have fixed the month-long delay with the page indexing report just about an hour ago. The report is now showing data as early as a few days ago, which is the normal timeframe for when this report is updated.

Plus, emails about indexing issues have started going out from Search Console to site owners again.

Page indexing report. It shows which pages Google can find and index on your site, along with any problems. You can also submit fixes there and see whether Google confirms they worked. Site owners and SEOs were stuck, they were unable to verify their “fixes” and unable to see if new pages were being indexed and if old pages were having issues being indexed.

Fixed. Here is a screenshot of the report showing December 14th, a much more recent date than the November 21st date that many were stuck on:

Google also fixed the performance reports delay just yesterday. So all the major reports should now be running normally, that is until they break again – which is not that uncommon.

Why we care. Many of you were unable to do full reporting for your SEO clients and stakeholders over the past month. Now you can get recent data both for page indexing and performance reports.

So you should be able to catch up on your reporting before you go into the holiday season.
