What Does This Mean? The indexing delays mean that any content published on websites now through whenever the problem is fixed may not show up in Google search results right away.

This could impact news publishers in particular, as breaking news stories and other timely content may not get indexed properly.

Once the technical problem is resolved, previously unpublished content that was affected should get indexed by Google as usual.
