If you still use AMP on your site, then go to the AMP enhancements report in Google Search Console and filter by “crawl issues.” You may see a spike in the number of crawl issues reported on and going forward from May 12th.

Lino Urunuela first reported this on Twitter last week and I was hoping it would be resolved by this week, but it does not seem to be. Here is what I see for some Search Console profiles I have access to:

Here are more screenshots from Lino Urunuela:

Many others are noticing the same issue. It is hard to know if this is a Google Search Console bug or something else. But I know a ton of people are noticing this issue and my guess, this is a bug with Search Console and that you don’t need to take any action. If I am wrong, I will update this story.

John Mueller of Google actually responded, saying, “Interesting, I’ll look around. Thanks!”

John added after I posted this, on Mastodon, “The crawl error numbers there are super-low, so while the graph looks “scary” (jumps up!) the absolute numbers are pretty insignificant. (at least all of the ones I checked). Still curious though.”
