Rawan Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Hi all Google has not been indexing my website and I don't know why. On Google search console, my homepage gives this error: Soft 404 These pages aren't indexed or served on Google Link: https://www.object750.com/ Any ideas? Thank you! Link to comment
SEOSpace_Henry Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Hi @Rawan, this can be down to a few things - I actually made a graphic that summarises the key points, as people ask this a lot 😅 I've also scanned your homepage with SEOSpace and can see the main thing probably holding you back is thin content - i.e. <300 words on a web page, which makes it hard for Google to know what to rank you for.

milanifloyd Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 A "Soft 404" means Google found your website but thinks it's an error page. This could be due to missing content or incorrect server settings. Check your homepage content and ensure your server isn't returning an error code. Rawan and RawSachin 2 Link to comment

Collaborada Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Hi @Rawan Thin content refers to low-quality low-value pages, it is not word count. Regarding the soft 404, are you using Squarespace to host the video? If so, try Vimeo or YT: Have SEO questions? Chances are we've written about it! Try a quick Google search to find our advice.
