I submitted a Change of Address request.
Its been a month and the request has still not completed. My new domain is not indexed. Anyone know how long this takes? And why so long? I just keep seeing this message in the search console: 1 of your other sites is moving to this site.
Its unfortunate we cannot get any help from Google and have to resort to other means.
If you write papers or theses in LaTeX, you know the pain of getting your preamble right — hunting for the right font package, tweaking heading sizes, wiring up fancyhdr just so.
I built a small tool to make that easier: a visual theme editor that lets you pick fonts, colours, spacing, and heading styles, then exports a ready-to-use .sty file.
No install, no account — runs entirely in the browser. Shareable links too, so you can send a colleague your exact setup.
I have a wordpress blog. Previously it was hosted at xxx.wordpress.com. Wordpress.com has a feature where they allow you to customize the URL -they call it connecting to another domain - so the URL becomes yyy.yoursite.com. I did this and all of a sudden my traffic has dropped by 50% or even more. Most of my traffic comes through Google. It has been about 2 months and the traffic has still not recovered. All previous links work. When someone tries to access a page under xxx.wordpress.com they are just redirected to same page but under yyy.yoursite.com. I also updated the site address in Google search console. This is really puzzling for me because why would a internal change like this affect my search results. If I hadn't told Google that I am changing the site URL, it would have continued to show the results. It seems telling Google that I am changing the site URL did more harm than good. Has anyone run into this and can explain me the cause and if there is anything I can do to restore the site traffic? I am not expert in SEO. Thanks.
