I fairly recently (September) launched a new website for my business, using Wix. Unfortunately, so far, Google has only indexed the homepage and nothing else, so I am still not really coming up on any search results. I have requested via Google Search Console for each page to be indexed, and I've also submitted a site map, however I'm still waiting and getting concerned as it's been like this since October. I've had websites before for previous businesses and never had this issue, and I always ranked really well for my keywords. I've put loads of effort into my SEO, but until I'm indexed on Google it's meaningless. I can see my website ranks top on Bing and Yahoo and all my pages show on their search results but of course no one uses those!

This week I hired a local SEO guy to look into it for me and check there aren't any issues I'm unaware of that are preventing indexing, but all he has done is submit another indexing request through Google Search Console, and assured me it should work in a few days (despite me having done this several times since October and still waiting). He also got my name wrong in his email to me, which didn't inspire confidence as my name is also my business name, which he'd been working on all afternoon!

So, so far, I'm £100 down but feel like he's done nothing I haven't already done myself. But, as this is the first time I've hired an SEO professional, I'm not sure what I should have expected/asked for?

Are there any SEO experts out there who would be kind enough to let me know what I should be asking for so that I finally make some progress? Or is it literally just a waiting game and I should be more patient? Thank you in advance for anyone who has any advice!

Wix is notorious for slow indexing. I used to refresh Search Console every day waiting for updates. I switched my setup to TESSA, and they handled the technical SEO side automatically, all pages indexed in under a wee
