Hi

I've a fresh new site and upload 7 posts. Then I add the sitemap and also fetch 5 articles using Google webmaster for quick index. As a result pages got index and live 3-4 days. Suddenly a week later, i notice all of my 5 posts are deindex by google. But Homepage or other pages are OK. I don't receive any notice at webmaster tool or even didn't find any crawl errors there.

Can anyone tell why such action taken? If Google didn't like Fetch then what the purpose of this Fetch URL section at Google Webmaster Tools.

Thanks in advanced

    Hello,

    Where did you get your articles from? If you copied them, then maybe you received a duplicate content penalty and that`s why the pages got deindexed.
    Also check your robots.txt file for anomalies.

      No they are not directly copied from other website, but they are manually re-write and 100% unique though copyscape premium result.

        Naturally, you want to remedy the situation immediately, but this is usually not possible. Prevention is much easier than cure in such situations, and it is important to understand why Google finds it necessary to take this step. A remedy may take a minimum of one week to over a month, and even then it may take a long time for you to recover your previous ranking. There is also a big difference between a site being reindexed and individual pages and posts reappearing in the rankings.

        The first step is to try to find the reason for it. Google won't tell you. Always remember that Google's primary objective is to provide a good search experience to its users. It does not want people finding the same duplicate content on its results pages, and it does not want to list pages with poor content that is filled with adverts, spammy links and poorly written text that is barely readable. You must find yourself where you are failing.

        So what you're saying is that these articles are indeed copies that you rewrote "manually". Do you really thing that Google in 2015 is still doing simple string comparison like Copyscape? They're trying to "understand" and parse the article which is why the top results don't often even feature the exact search phrase. I'm not sure if you're correct on this de-indexing, but posting bad copies would be a good reason for Google to move the content to their supplemental index.

        I'd start from Google search with the phrase you're trying to rank for. If there's dozen results from strong sites that match the topic of your articles - well, it's possible that you just don't stand a change unless you're prepared to really put some resources and effort in your SEO.

        Links in signature will not help your SEO. Not on this site, and not on any other forum.
        Who told me this? An ex Google web spam engineer.

        What's your excuse?

      If you read again the first post you can find out that Google has indexed his website. The homepage is still indexed now but the articles that were also indexed at first are now deindexed.
      My best bet is that you got flagged for duplicate content. "Manually" rewriting other articles is still considered plagiarism.
      Search for parts of text from your articles on Google. Do you find articles almost identical to your own on other websites? If yes, then you have your answer

        Google does not care about duplicate content. It does not de-index pages for duplicate content unless the duplicate content appears on the same site. They index duplicate content ALL OF THE TIME.

          Then, what do you think could be the problem if his pages got deindexed?

            Without seeing the site, who knows?

            My first guess though would be the OP is confused between de-indexed and not ranking. That seems to happen a lot around here.

            My second guess would be there is something weird going on with the pages or ads. Something that makes Google think the pages are worthless.

            Without seeing the site though, there is no way to know.

          ...and bury the weak domains/pages with duplicate content in Google Supplemental SERPs, lol.

            Exactly, but it still gets indexed.

              I know.

              OP is in panic mode over a new domain with new pages bouncing around the SERPs. Doubtful he even did an exact URL site: search to see If the internal pages are indexed.

    Thanks all of you for your valuable info. Article rewrite wont the fact, I can bet on this. Because I've already few sites that are manually rewrite for other subjects, which are get ranked also. I think there are two issues:

    - Domain registration. I've buy a domain which was previously purchased and was live from 2010-2013. After getting de-index, I discover this and really get shocked. Never thought it was an expire domain. I also try to explore previous backlink or archive history, but couldn't fined any. I think this was a penalized domain

    - Another reason, but not sure, that a quick fetch might be not good for my fresh website. I was too hurry to get index and as a result bad things happen.

    btw, thanks again to you all.
