You might have written some rule in the robots.txt file that is restricting it. Check with the Google robots.txt checker from your webmaster account.

There is nothing written in robots.txt by me. and what can you tell me about "not found" does it obstruct site in ranking?

Did you check the meta tags of your site? Maybe you've used "noindex" on these article pages?

Hi,

If you're using Wordpress, there are certain plugins that could be rewriting the robots.txt.

Not found will hurt ranking, so either fix the link, fix the page, or setup a 301 to redirect that page that is not found to a related page.

Follow the steps below:
1: Connect your website through FTP
2: Go to the root directory
3: Download robots.txt
4: Look for the Disallow: /filename.php (the file name is the name of file used as generating the new page for the specific new Article)

If you find any match just remove that line and you are done. Otherwise look in the meta tag on the file which is rewritten during the new page creation. If there is noindex tag, just remove that and you are done.
