Precursor - Have been trying to get a client site indexed for over 2 months. Also, client cannot get GBP video verified (has submitted multiple video attempts).
Having an issue I've never seen in probably 200+ sites submitted to search console / Google indexing. Submitted a site to Google Search Console for the first crawl back on July 4th and the site is still not indexed. Usually our sites are indexed within 24 hours if not sooner, even with newly registered domains. This IS a newly registered domain within the past year (probably about 8 months ago).
*Submitted verification for the entire domain, so as usual Google tried to crawl and index the non www. and non SSL versions first (these have always been properly 301'd to the https://www. version of the site). We also have the proper homepage canonicalized. All redirects are clean, site is free of malware, etc.
*We did use AI to help write the content, as it's a slightly new concept for a cosmetic dental office. However, we edited and humanized everything as best we could for actual human beings. Also, some of the images were from the client's previous business/dental practice that she sold. They have since been removed from that website and uploaded to this new one. We also placed a link from the old practice's website to the new one, but that has since been removed from the purchasing business owner.
We've built links to the site from our own website, as well as Facebook/Instagram/YouTube which all have a pretty good presence. Have also verified Yelp, but have been unable to get Google Business Profile verification complete for months as well... However, I'm assuming this issue is relative to the building being a multi-practice location with Suite #s. When starting verification it suggests a different dental practice up front. Have multiple support tickets open and trying to work through this separate issue too...
Anyone have any helpful tips or run into similar situations lately??? I'm completely stumped.
