Search Engine visibility for Obsidian Publish

Basement

I just checked your site and I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t be crawled. That said, there are two suspicions I have:

  1. We don’t have a sitemap (on a per site basis) so engines don’t have a great time walking through the site. Links should still work though, so this isn’t really the problem we’re seeing with your site

  2. Google only re-crawls site once in a while, and your site is under Obsidian’s domain publish.obsidian.md instead of a custom domain, so it’s only crawled when Google decides to go through our entire publish domain.

I’ll likely address 1) sometime in the future, but I’m not sure there’s much we can do for 2).
