"I have a website with approximately 280 total pages, including many blog posts. All of these pages are included in the sitemap, which I've submitted through Google Search Console. However, when I check using site:*** in Google, I can only see around 29 pages indexed. The rest-including most of the blog posts-aren't showing up in the search results. Here's what I've already checked: All pages are listed in the sitemap No pages are blocked by robots.txt"
"Indexing does not mean it's searchable in Google now; it means Google has it in its index now. It can choose to or not choose to display it as a web result. If your site is new, then it's normal to take some time (days, weeks...months) for your posts to be visible. Did you notice this at the end of the restults? In order to show you the most relevant results, we have omitted some entries very similar to the 29 already displayed."
Website contains approximately 280 pages but Google shows about 29 pages in site: results despite sitemap submission. Sitemap includes all pages and Search Console shows no manual actions; robots.txt does not block pages and pages return 200 OK with correct canonical tags. Possible causes include Google indexing versus display differences, omitted results due to duplication or similarity, low content quality or thin/duplicated posts, poor internal linking, crawl budget constraints, sitemap inaccuracies, or canonicalization issues. Recommended actions: check Search Console Index Coverage and URL Inspection for indexing reasons, submit individual URLs for indexing, improve unique content and internal linking, consolidate duplicates, and monitor for gradual indexing.
