My client is upset because her blog posts all used to be found on Google and this is not anymore the case. The number of site visits dropped dramatically and she is losing business because of this.
In fact, I saw on Ahrefs that the keywords her site is ranking for, dropped dramatically (from 4,000 keywords to about 3,000) over the last months.

23 individual blog post URLs that have been submitted and used to rank well in Google are not indexed, but not because of an error but because they are not selected as canonical by Google. Instead the blog page https://www.vacationrentalsmanzanita.com/blog has been selected by Google over the individual blog posts.
Recently posted blog posts are not indexed by Google either. Google Search Console shows "discovered not indexed" which indicates that Google tried to crawl the URL but the site was overloaded.
The sitemap has been submitted after every site change, the site has been fetched & rendered and all URLs have been submitted to index.
I am not that worried about the recent posts that haven't been indexed but I am about the ones that used to rank and are not indexed any longer. I think there is clearly something wrong with the indexing of this site and hope there is someone of the Wix New Blog team that can look into this.
Thanks!

The problem of my client's site was fixed after more than 2 weeks going back and forward with support.
I see a lot of references to Google Search Console. It seems that GSC doesn't represent the indexing of the blog posts very well. I would recommend to download a report from GSC of all URLs that GSC says are not indexed and to double check the indexing yourself in Google search by typing site://https://www.mysite... in the search bar or by using a bulk index checker like https://indexchecking.com
This way you can see which blog URLs are truely not indexed and communicate those with support.
A new update on this issue. By all means please see the screenshot below:
I have perform a fetch on every single pages that I have told as being excluded before (if you ever do this, it is a chore indeed, but I did it anyway for the sake of proving an issue here).
And the result is? A new category is made up in Google Search Console as "Duplicate, submitted URL not selected as canonical". Most of the fetch (if not all) I did, are clumped inside this category. Basically they are still being excluded, just changing category. NICE! VERY NICE!
You can see the last crawled date in the screenshot above, which I underlined in red mark, is very new. And as I said before when I clicked the view as search result, most of them were pointing to the main blog feed page, not the actual blog.
6 days ago, I published a new blog post and it is directly being excluded and regarded as "Discovered - currently not indexed". See the one I circled around in the screenshot below, that is the newest blog post.
From the first time I faced this issue, I always believe it is due to the messy SEO structure of the New Wix Blog. And that is still the case now.
Based on the response so far I feel that this thing isn't being considered as an issue at all. Or if it is, then it is being considered as unimportant one. But seriously pages being excluded from Google search is unimportant?
Wix Blog Team - PLEASE help us here. You need to be pro-active with us and respond to us...to some people this is their business - it's not just a hobby. The SEO structure on the current blog is messy, the page titles etc are just MESSY. Please help 😄 @Simona Griskute
Well, in the old search console of google its same for me. It stucks at 50 listed urls. But in the new one there are currently 56. I checked what you said about "view as search result".
Its listed and indexed so far. The blogpost was my latest release. And its in the rankings:
But i had same expirience like you.
The problem isn't that Google doesn't recognized the blog pages, but the one they see are regarded as "Submitted URL not selected as canonical" or "Crawled - currently not indexed" in the New Google Search Console. If you look at the old Google Search Console, the number of indexed pages will never ever goes up. And I'm talking like even after more than 6 months. Well I have been using New Wix Blog since the initial launch, since then the number stuck at that point.
I have submitted a new sitemap, I even fetch and request it to be indexed one by one, and the crawled date are very recent, but still that blog pages are regarded as such by Google. You can see it in the screenshot below:
When I clicked view search result (the one I give a red line) it didn't come up with anything. Just pure blank Google search. Even if the one disregarded by Google are showing something in the search result, it just point it to the main blog feed, not the actual page. And why is the "blog-feed.xml" there too?
I got 45 New Wix Blog pages being regarded as Submitted URL not selected as canonical
And 22 New Wix Blog pages being regarded as Crawled - currently not indexed
Plus the weird thing is the main New Wix Blog feed page and Wix Forum are being redirected. Though I have not set such thing.
So this means that all of them are not indexed by Google and they don't show up in Google Search at all. Well :(
After sending the sitemap again to the google search console it seems working. My blogposts are indexed. I will observe my latest (few days ago) entry in the blog, if there will be any trouble again. So far its not listed in the indexcover. But its in the search results.
Red arrows are the blog-posts.
I have the same problem, nothing being indexed, zilp, zilch, nada. #lostinouterspace?
In the new search console under index coverage it states that Submitted URL's are not selected as canonical. These URL's are being excluded.
What good is this blog and all the features you keep adding if it is broken on so many levels and isn't being indexed?
Hi All,
regarding the problem of blog posts being not indexed - if you experience such issue, please request Google indexing on several posts and check after 4-5 days if these posts are indexed correctly. Please share with us the outcome, thanks!
Hi Christoph,
please let us know if these posts are indexed correctly after 4-5 days after you sent the sitemap for indexing.
I solved it like andrea did. I was sending the sitemap again and its indexed so far. I will observe it.
I also have this problem! I have sent a Ticket, but no valid solution. The issue is still going on up to now. There was another person who explained the problem here too https://www.wix-blog-community.com/blog/updates/advanced-seo-for-blog-posts-is-here-1
I think the problem is with the SEO structure of New Wix Blog. The page titling mess up so bad :(
I did, you are free to take a look.
The support answerd me also and setted the main language to "de". But so far, the content language in html is in en/us. (i tested url for the newest information).
Another issue i have, the multiple urls of pictures because of the ajax technologie. I setted the pictures for "pop up" and of cause, google is indexing it (urls). Now i have 420 Urls indexed, normaly it should be 57.
I turned all pictures back without pop up, but so far google is listing it........ ( it makes me crazy)
Hi Christoph,
I am writing to you regarding language case. The team is checking, but it would be very helpful, if you could give us “viewer permissions” for the following account in your Google Search Console: wixpromote@wix.com. Please let me know when you do it, thanks!
Thank you! I will do also and hope its not a solution for short time. :)
Just to let you know that I solved the problem by sending google my sitemap again.
Really annoying.
I did also, no response so far. It makes me nervos that wix setted my page to english content but everything is listed in german and on top it doesnt rank because of the problem with canonical url.
Looks like nobody cares about this problem. I also wrote directly to wix assistance but I got no answer. Very disappointing.
Same thing happened to me recently. All my posts disappeared from google. Please, let us know if you know something about this and when this will be fixed.
