As of proper now, Google Search Console is having a significant delay with its Performance reports and a few are questioning why the standing of the delay isn’t within the Google Search Status Dashboard like different search associated points.
Rüdiger Dalchow requested, “It’s now exhibiting a 71 hours replace delay and the Google Search Standing Dashboard has nonetheless no data on this.”
John Mueller from Google replied to this query on LinkedIn explaining that the dashboard is de facto reserved for core search techniques reminiscent of crawling, indexing, or rating (and serving). Since that is only a reporting situation and it has no direct influence on core rating, it’s not included on this report.
As an alternative, they simply verify the difficulty on social media and hold us up to date there and perhaps doc it within the data anomalies page.
Here’s what John Mueller posted:
We would monitor it within the search standing dashboard if this had been affecting one of many core search techniques – like crawling, indexing, or rating. On this case, it is “simply” reporting, and we do not monitor these within the standing dashboard. Possibly we must always? The incident administration course of provides fairly a little bit of overhead, which I do not suppose could be applicable for a comparatively / doubtlessly short-term situation like this. I discover the datestamp within the UI fairly useful in at the very least confirming the age of the info, which is why we added it like that there.
Our course of at the moment has mounted factors at which we would publish about it on social media, add an data bar into Search Console, or point out it within the knowledge anomalies web page. It is a steadiness between unnecessarily alerting folks for issues they are not & letting others know that Google’s engineers are working to resolve a pending situation.
So that’s the reason these notices don’t go on the Google Search Status Dashboard.
John additionally joked, “Sorry! Ought to I test with the workforce about including an additional 10% to numbers within the reviews after the info is again 🙂 ?”
