Why isn't my page showing up in Google's search results?
Identifying and resolving issues with missing pages and websites
When your page or site is missing from Google Search results, here's how to troubleshoot and fix the most common issues.
Step 1: Check to see if your page or website is missing.
It may seem obvious, but make sure your page or site isn't missing from Google's index. Many people believe they aren't on Google because their page appears very low in the search results.
Did you just make the page or ask for it to be indexed? Allow at least a week after submitting a sitemap or a submit to index request for Google to index your page before assuming there is a problem. If you made a recent site or page change, come back in a week to see if it's still missing.
To make sure you're on Google, do the following:
Safe search may be filtering your results, so turn it off.
Look up your site or page on Google:
For a site that isn't there:
Use the site:your domain name syntax to conduct a site search.
site:example.com or site:example.com/petstore are two examples.
For a missing page, use Google to look up the full URL.
Step 2: Resolve the issue

It's possible that you received a site that has already been subjected to manual actions. Any outstanding actions filed against it will be visible on the history pages of the Manual Actions and Security Issues reports. To learn how to resolve pre-existing issues in a purchased site, read the documentation included with your report.
Because we haven't had a chance to crawl or index your site or page yet, it may not be in our index. It takes some time for us to crawl a new page after you publish it, and even longer for us to index it. Depending on a variety of factors, the total time can range from a day or two to a few weeks.
If you recently restructured your site, moved to a new domain, or switched to https, pages that used to rank well may now rank poorly if mistakes were made during the transition. To correct: To redirect users, Googlebot, and other crawlers, use 301 redirects ("RedirectPermanent"). (You can do this in Apache with an.htaccess file; in IIS, you can use the administrative console.) Check Google for both your http and https URLs if you've recently switched to https.
Manual actions will lower your page's ranking or even remove it from the search results entirely. The Manual Actions report should point you in the right direction for fixing your manual action. Relocations that are legal
Improve your site's ability to be found and crawled by Google.
If Google doesn't seem to be finding all of your site's pages, it could mean that either Google can't find them (crawl) or that it can't understand them properly when it does (index).
