Search Console shows some pages as 'Crawled - currently not indexed' — why isn't Google visiting them?

About 100 pages on our site are stuck in 'Crawled - currently not indexed' status. So Google hasn't entered these pages at all. But they are in the sitemap, and there are internal links too. Why isn't Google visiting these pages?

I know crawling a big site takes time, but it shouldn't be this bad. Some pages have said 'Crawled - currently not indexed' for over 2 months. Is Google really gonna crawl them or did it forget them?

There's something called crawl budget i think. So is Google hitting a limit when crawling my site? What should we do to get them crawled?

The main reason Google isn't visiting your 'Crawled - currently not indexed' pages is crawl budget limitations. Google allocates a specific amount of time to crawl pages on your site; if your site is very large or slow, Google might not be able to crawl all pages.

To increase crawl budget, do this: 1) Increase page load speed — use a CDN, compress images. 2) Reduce site size — delete or redirect unnecessary pages. 3) Simplify internal navigation — make deep depth pages accessible. 4) Optimize the sitemap — only add important pages.

Also check the 'Understanding how Google crawls your site' tab in Search Console. It shows how many pages Google crawled and how much time it spent. If crawl time is high, you have a performance issue on your site.

I've also had uncrawled pages for 6 months. I thought it was a waste... I mean but I asked a consultant and he said: Google's site crawl time is too long meaning performance is low. I upgraded my hosting and it started crawling just fine.

Reasons for 'Crawled - currently not indexed' status: - Weak site crawlability (excessive link depth) - High page load time - Unoptimized sitemap (too many URLs) - Insufficient robots.txt directives - Server timeouts - New pages (very recently published)

i have uncrawled pages too. if there's a crawl budget limit, it doesn't mean the site is small and hosting is good but if the site is messy, that's the problem.

For an average site, Google can crawl 20-100 pages a day. If your site has 500+ pages, it might take 2-3 months to crawl all of them. High-speed sites and sites with few pages get crawled much faster.

Quick fix: 1) Find uncrawled pages in Search Console. 2) Pick the top 10 most important ones. 3) Add a direct link to each from the homepage. 4) Then submit a Manual Request. Google will start crawling these.

If Google isn't going to crawl these, it means it doesn't want them indexed. So the majority of the site is sufficient, and since users aren't finding the other pages anyway, Google doesn't need to crawl them either.

I've been dealing with this for a long time. Updating an existing page yields faster results than creating a new one.

Proven by experience.

Three different views emerged, they all complement each other. When making a decision, first look at what data you have on hand.

Processes without records never improve, because you don't know what to fix. If you post the result here, it will help others too.

Let me summarize the topic, since several different answers were given. The harder it is to reverse a decision the slower you should make it.

Most time waste accumulates in tasks waiting for approval. This is my opinion I'm not claiming it's absolute truth.

Saved... Mistakes made on the crawled currently not indexed side are usually reversible but expensive.

There's also a measurement aspect to this. If it's your first time, start small; scaling comes later.

Exactly like that. Internal linking is the cheapest and most neglected task.

Correct. Solutions that work at a small scale collapse when you grow; I learned this late.

Just leaving this note, it might be useful.

How did you solve this? The real issue isn't the number, but what it's based on.

I think differently. A competitor's ranking might come from years of accumulation, not just their content.

I'm also curious if anyone does it differently.

The discussion got scattered, let me summarize. Don't hesitate to ask; those who don't ask always pay more.
