SEO : indexed pages changed from 80 000 to 80 in a month

[Jean-Baptiste]

Hello,

I have checked google webmaster tools, and it is showing that I am not indexed correctly by google anymore.

My website is realitygaming.fr (we have a lot of threads, it should be indexed).

I am not blacklisted by google.

Any ideas ? How can I debug this ?

Here is a screenshot of my google webmaster tool :


Thanks for the help,

Did you recently change to HTTPS ?

Make sure you add your new HTTPS URL to Google Search Console - Google sees them as different properties.

Oh yes, that was the cause ! Thanks !

Howewer, that’s not explaining why « site:realitygaming.fr » is only showing 3000 results..

Now that you've added the HTTPs version to Search Console, you should add your sitemap to Search Console:
https://realitygaming.fr/sitemap.php

That should help, if there are any issues Google will provide more feedback on its next crawl..

You can use sitemap.xml these days rather than sitemap.php if you have friendly URLs enabled.

(Doesn’t particularly make a difference but thought worth mentioning).

It is possible to create sitemap.xml automatically?

Ok I think my DDOS protection script banned google bots ! That's the reason...

If so, your DDOS protection script worked incorrectly because it banned normal traffic.
