Has Google been 'weird' lately?

    Pages aren't being indexed, or crawled. Not to mention the fact that pages are mysteriously vanishing off of page one of Google search for specific keywords. Is it just me?

    I don't know many times I am on page one right after I type up an article, and then I just fall off the charts.

    Since August 2nd, none of my new articles have been indexed / crawled.

    Is it just me, or have any of you guys had problems with Google also?

    Get back at me.

    probably google missed the site. but if that is the case submit your site to google again. or submit sitemap again.

    looks like I am not alone :( :)

    Till a few days back the posts on my blog would be indexed by google wihtin a couple of hours of me posting it. However since the past couple of posts, I find that they have not been indexed. When i enter the title in my custom search box I find no result for them

    It is a purely personal blog with no monetised content in it.
    My Google Webmaster settings is enabled at Fast for indexing speed.

    I think google does that sometimes, give it some time and it should be fine, also check your script that could be the issue.

    I have already signed up for webmaster tools.

    Headshot - I am not talking about my index page. I am talking about deeper pages. Usually google gets them right away, but for some reason, my last 2 days worth of articles haven't been indexed.

    Alright. It must be a google issue. Hopefully things will soon be restored. Can I have links to your guys' sites?

    google has deindexed MANY pages from its search so its not just you

    for example, if you search lets say "Gamers Forum" now you will get roughly 1 million listings, if you have done that in January, you would have gotten 30 million or so listings

    i mentioned that keyword because I worked to get my site ranked 1 for that keyword from 30 million a few months ago, it's still 1 but listings are just low
