Help! Site disappeared from Google
My site has completely disappeared from Google results as of Saturday August 21st 2021. Nothing on the site had been changed recently other than new articles/posts being added. Literally nothing was done, no SEO work, no code changes, no updates, nothing for at least a few months.
No manual actions in Search Console so no clues. Search Console says the pages are valid. I searched “site:domainname.com” but only only 6 of hundreds of pages pages are the results. No alerts or issues in search Console.
The site is a few years old, I’ve never done any off site SEO work so it’s not like something could have been perceived as black hat by mistake.
I’ve checked DNS, everything is fine. No server issues. I can’t find any clues. What else should I be checking?

Check your htaccess, robots.txt, redirects plugin (if you have one installed). Check your pages meta and schema. Then run a SEO audit.

Don’t panic, happened to me, I was just like you panicked now searched as far as page 50, nothing, this is normal, Google will pull your page and send away for in-depth testing, when they’ve done all the testing it will return

You say no Seo work, no code changes, no updates, for a few months. That’s your problem. Google had a update about fresh content. Either that, or you got reported and blacklisted.
