Description

Hi, It would seem the Paste Design Site is no longer being listed on search engines. Is this intentional?

When I s is now not listed on any search engine for any results as I can see.

Hi @moretalk thank you for raising this issue with us. This is completely unintentional and is only an issue with Google search engine. We have validated with alternatives such as DuckDuckGo and Bing which return the site fine. We have made not recent changes to our sitemap and we are currently not sure of the. We have created a ticket internally to address this.

The sitemap appears to be empty -- https://paste.twilio.design/sitemap.xml

I have a PR up to fix the sitemap issue. We will try and manually trigger the indexing via the Google Search console once this is merged

@krisantrobus, did we manually trigger the indexing again? Because Google still isn't returning Paste documentation like it used to

[moretalk]

This does now appear on google again but as paste-docs.vercel.app rather than paste.twilio.design...

Yeah I just find it still doesn't quite work like it used to. Before I'd often search "twilio paste <component_name>" (i.e. button etc) and that page would be first.
