Google doesn’t index my posts, only index page

Doing this search in Google appears to show that your site is being indexed.

site:www.jennifer-beals.com/news/

yes, the site is on google but when I post a new article the post doesn’t appear on google search, just the index page /news/ but not the post itself..
it’s like something is blocking my posts but I don’t know what

It’s indexing them. Google has your newest news article when I Google:

“site:www.jennifer-beals.com/news/2015/03/new-trailer-for-jennifer-beals-new-series-proof/”

like that yes but not on its own when I search for a a keyword, not even within 24 hours of posting .. it doesn’t show the post , just the index page…
It wasn’t like that before… it would index the posts , not the index page

That’s a different question. If you’re competing for keyword searches then that’s not something we can help you with on the forums. Have you picked up some SEO practices from Google? https://static.googleusercontent.com/media/www.google.co.uk/en/uk/webmasters/docs/search-engine-optimization-starter-guide.pdf

It might be better to discuss this on Google’s forums instead; https://groups.google.com/

When I Google: https://www.google.com/search?q=New%20trailer%20for%20Jennifer%20Beals%20new%20series%20%E2%80%9CProof%E2%80%9D&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 which is using the Article title, Google shows it as 4th on the list.

As far as keywords go, I notice on your post that no <meta name="keywords" content="(whatever)" /> tag is present so Google is just using the post’s title and content.

is not about competing … is just that is strange that before I installed Google xml site maps plugin my posts would be picked up on google search.. after I installed that plugin and even though I deleted it my posts stopped showing up on google…
if it wasn’t the plugin , I don’t know what it is… don’t understand why the index page gets indexed after I post a new article but the post itself doesn’t
