Yes, Google Is Down Right Now (& Now Google Is Back)

Yes, it appears a lot of Google services are currently down right now. You are not alone.

This is Gmail, YouTube, Google My Business, Google AdSense, Google AdWords, Google Photos, Google Analytics, Gmail, Google Search Console, Admob, etc but not Google Search. I think logging into Google is broken also.

Of course, the big Google Search joke in the SEO world is [is google down] query says no, but technically, Google Search is up:

You can check the Google Workspace status indicators, they are all currently red (have been since around 6:55am ET.

Update: Google services seem to be coming back up at 7:28am ET, so about a 30 minute outage.

Forum discussion at Twitter.

Today, at 3.47AM PT Google experienced an authentication system outage for approximately 45 minutes due to an internal storage quota issue. This was resolved at 4:32AM PT, and all services are now restored.
