Google indexing issues

Hello,

I am fairly clueless beyond actually building a website and I would really appreciate some help with a new website that I built for a family member. I can't seem to get it indexed by Google.

It's a very small Wordpress website - only 5 pages. The homepage has been indexed by Google but none of the other 4 pages have. In Search Console I am seeing the following issues:

Services page -
"URL is not on Google
This page is not in the index, but not because of an error."

Price list, Consultation and Contact pages -
"URL is not on Google: Indexing errors
Redirect error"

I have no idea what the problem is with the services page. I have requested indexing for this page but to no avail so far.

For the other 3 pages with redirect errors, I have followed advice on checking the robots.txt file - very little in that file and nothing that would trigger a redirect to my knowledge.

I have made a few changes and resubmitted the sitemap, etc then asked Google to reindex all of these pages. That was 11 days ago and nothing has happened. I know supposed to allow up to two weeks but I find in reality it is usually no more than 5 days. The last message I had was "We're validating your Coverage issue fixes for site…" on the 13th January.

Can anyone suggest what I can do to rectify these errors?

Thanks,

Ross

If your site is new, Google may not have crawled and indexed it yet. Tell Google about your site. Your site may be indexed under a different domain.

There may be an excessive number of URLs in the crawling queue, which will be crawled and indexed later. A problem with quality: Google may believe that some pages on that site aren't worth crawling and opt not to visit them based on a pattern in their URL.
