All websites are now experiencing an ongoing difficulty that prevents them from being correctly indexed, according to Google's Search Status Dashboard, a portal that gives information on services that are part of Google Search. This appears to be preventing many people from viewing fresh content from their favorite websites and magazines and decreasing traffic for numerous businesses.

Until the bug is fixed, many publications may see a significant drop in traffic because Google News is a significant source of traffic for websites on the internet. While Google recognized the issue yesterday, the Pursuit Status Dashboard proposes it began on June 21.

The tech giant claims that it is still attempting to determine the problem's underlying cause and that it will notify users within the next 24 hours. However, there is no established timetable for the resolution of the issue.

In addition, publications are likely to see a significant drop in traffic until a solution is found. The Search Status Dashboard reveals that the bug has been present since June 21 despite Google's Monday acknowledgement of the issue.

According to Will Flannigan, the SEO Editor at the Wall Street Journal, he said, it is "related to the Google News visibility issues that began in late June. Essentially, many news publishers saw their visibility tank. In the U.S., syndicated Yahoo content took its place, skyrocketing Yahoo's Google New visibility."

The organization has affirmed that it is effectively chipping away at deciding the underlying driver of the issue and will refresh clients soon. However, there is no specific timetable for the resolution of the problem.
