Migration aftermath: 90% of 2 domains out of 22 "Crawled - currently not indexed" for 10+ months
Hi, I already went through all the "Crawled - currently not indexed" posts here, but in my mind this situation is a bit more specific, so I would really appreciate your input.
- September '25: we migrated our 22 domains (ecommerce).
- November '25: 20 domains migrated without issues, while 2 of them got only 2-3 pages indexed, the remaining got stuck in "Crawled - currently not indexed".
- Present days: those 2 domains got 5-10 pages indexed. As a result, I'm losing my mind 🥲
Context: the site content and architecture is not great across all 22 domains. I took over SEO only recently, and I've been comparing all the comparable (authority, link profile, code, content, rebranding campaigns) - nothing sets apart these 2 faulty domains from the other 22. Furthermore, one of these 2 domains is a big market/high traffic, and the other is a small market/small traffic, so I can't even go "Well, they never got traffic even before the migration" (additional mind lost).
OF COURSE, old domains for these 2 are still greatly indexed 🚑 it really looks like G is ignoring the 301s (correctly set 301s, set the same way across the other domains). DuckDuckGo/Bing index these 2 domains without issues.
Have you ever seen anything like this?
Has anything fixed it, or do you have any tips?
Could it be G is more annoying in some countries than others?
I've managed other migrations previously in my career, and never ever happened. For completion of info:
- change of address in GSC was done properly;
- none of the 2 domains had traffic drop before migration (while others that had traffic drop, indexed without issues);
- I'm regularly pushing indexing for high potential pages, but nada. I'm fixing content, internal linking and site structure, but apart from those additional 4-8 pages indexed, nada;
- Products are visible in G freelisting (only source of traffic for these 2 domains 🥲 ), so it knows people want them and click them, still actively decide to not index them.
Thanks in advance!
