2. Page Scanned but Not Indexed, or an Error Response ReceivedThis often occurs, and the main reasons include:
- Prohibition of indexing the site or section in the Robots file or meta tag.
- Server response codes not being 200, but for example 301, 404, or 500 (indicating technical issues with page accessibility).
- Canonical tags. In some cases, a non-existent page is specified, or the rule conflicts due to a looped canonicalization.
- Content issues. Content is missing, not unique, or identified as spam by the search engine.
- A large number of technical errors on the site and in the Google Search Console panel.
