I asked Google but I didn’t hear back, so I then asked some of the tool providers – what percentage of the index was removed, dropped or de-indexed as of result of the issue from Thursday/Friday? Dr. Pete Meyers said he is researching it but he is seeing about a 4% change.
Now – keep in mind, Moz and other tool providers generally just see a small piece of Google’s whole index. I don’t know what that percentage is – but it is large enough to have an accurate sample size for analyzing such data? I am not sure – but I think Pete Meyers will be posted more details at Moz when he has it.
Here is what Pete said on Twitter:
As of today, I’m seeing a return to baseline levels.

One point of validation — the trend was stable during the March “core” update — so, this appears to be measuring something unique from our usual flux metrics.

The issue is pretty much fixed, as we have been keeping you posted on. Here is the latest from Google:
The indexing issue should be almost completely resolved within the next eight hours. Some documents might take an additional 12-24 hours to restore. We’ll provide a further update when the issue is fully resolved.

I’d love to get reports from more tool providers – actually, I’d love for Google to tell us what the true impact was for that time frame and who pressed the wrong button at Google. But I doubt we would be getting more details from Google on this issue.
