<p>Well, this isn't a Craft issue.</p>

<p>You can submit a URL to be indexed via the "render" tab in Google Search Console. IIRC not all will necessarily be indexed straight away, even if submitted by itself, it may take time. </p>

The URLs have been submitted and some are indexing, and then it will not be indexed the next day. A few days later it'll be indexed again.

<p>Just because Google has not indexed your pages doesn't mean there isn't necessarily anything wrong. Have you gone into the group Google search console to see what pages it has actually consumed?</p>

We can see that it has crawled all of the pages, but is only indexing random blogs. Which ones are indexed seems to change every day/few days as well.

<p>We are encountering an issue where some/most of our blog pages are not indexing with Google. Some random blog pages are indexed but most are not.</p>

<p>The pages are being rendered correctly by the google bot but are not being indexed.</p>

<p>This is our _entry.html that pulls in the craft blog and renders the individual blog view:</p>

<pre><code>{% set title = entry.title ~ " | Blog" %}

{% if entry.metaDescription | length &gt; 0 %}
    {% set description = entry.metaDescription  %}
{%else%}
    {% set description = entry.body|split('&lt;/p&gt;') [0] | striptags | slice(0, 144)  %}
{%endif%}

{% block meta_tags %}
    {{ siteMacros.returnMetaTags({
            'description' : description,
            'og:title' : entry.title ~ ' | Default Titlge Here',
            'og:image' : siteUrl ~ 'assets/favicons/favicon-196x196.png'

{% block content %}

Blog pages not indexing SEO
# Blog pages not indexing SEO

(Asked by: username_0 on 2017-02-08)

We are encountering an issue where some/most of our blog pages are not indexing with Google. Some random blog pages are indexed but most are not.
The pages are being rendered correctly by the google bot but are not being indexed.
This is our _entry.html that pulls in the craft blog and renders the individual blog view:
{% set title = entry.title ~ " | Blog" %}

{% if entry.metaDescription | length > 0 %}
    {% set description = entry.metaDescription  %}
{%else%}
    {% set description = entry.body|split('') [0] | striptags | slice(0, 144)  %}
{%endif%}

{% block meta_tags %}
    {{ siteMacros.returnMetaTags({
            'description' : description,
            'og:title' : entry.title ~ ' | Default Titlge Here',
            'og:image' : siteUrl ~ 'assets/favicons/favicon-196x196.png'
        }) 
    }}
{% endblock %}

{% block content %}

    {{entry.title}}

    
        
            {% include 'content_blocks/_entryBody.html' %}
        

        
            {% include 'content_blocks/_blogCategoryList.html' %}
        
    

{% endblock %}

This just filters everything through the _entrybody.html which looks like this:
{% import '_macros' as siteMacros %}

{%if entry.subHead | length %}
    {{entry.subHead}}
{%endif%}
    {% if entry.image | length %}
        {% set image = entry.image.first() %}
    {% elseif entry.curataImage | length %}
        {% set image = entry.curataImage %}
    {%endif%}

    {% if image | length %}
        {{ siteMacros.responsiveImage(image) }}
    {%endif%}

    {%if entry.video | length %}
    
    {%endif%}

    
        {% set paragraphs = entry.body|split('') %}
        {% set pfirstBreak = (paragraphs | length / 2 ) | round - 1 %}
        {% set firstParagraphs = paragraphs | slice (0, pfirstBreak) %}
        {% set lastParagraphs = paragraphs | slice (pfirstBreak, paragraphs | length ) %}

        {% for p in firstParagraphs %}
            {{p|raw}}
        {%endfor%}

        {%if entry.pullQuote | length %}
            
                {{entry.pullQuote}}
            
        {%endif%}

        {% for p in lastParagraphs %}
            {{p|raw}}
        {%endfor%}

        {% if entry.pdf | length %}
            
                Related Documents:
                {%for pdf in entry.pdf %}
                    {{pdf.title}} [pdf]
                {%endfor%}
            
        {%endif%}


        {% if entry.referringSite | length  and  entry.readMoreLink | length %}
            Read the full article at {{entry.referringSite}}
        {% endif %}

    

    {% if not hidePostDate %}
        {% set category = entry.category.first %}
        Posted {{ entry.postDate.format('F j, Y') }}{% if category | length %} in {{category.link}}{%endif%}.
    {% endif %}

Well, this isn't a Craft issue.

You can submit a URL to be indexed via the "render" tab in Google Search Console. IIRC not all will necessarily be indexed straight away, even if submitted by itself, it may take time.

Just because Google has not indexed your pages doesn't mean there isn't necessarily anything wrong. Have you gone into the group Google search console to see what pages it has actually consumed?
