Google Indexing problems – Zakra Theme problem?

If you have no development experience (or are not willing/have no time to learn certain development aspects and routines) then your only bet here is what your “company” already suggested: contact the company on which you built your website (Zakra), so they can fix it

I am not saying this out of disrespect or talking from above, rather, because the tasks you will need to master in order to resolve those problems do require development experience or at least the time and motivation to learn them

In short, what you would do is go over each item in the report that is in the “red” area

Google (and BTW also tools like GTMEtrix) are kind enough to tell you actually quite precisely what to do.
Look out for the suggestions inside the “accordions” of each issue.

When you infold the accordion of each issue you will see text with suggestions, and links to more information.
For example, one of the biggest issues there is the “Reduce initial server response time” that promises to gain over 1.6 seconds if improved.

So, if you unfold that section you will see:

Keep the server response time for the main document short because all other requests depend on it. Learn more.

The learn more link will lead to https://web.dev/time-to-first-byte/?utm_source=lighthouse&utm_medium=unknown with a load of information about how to “Reduce initial server response time”

This ranges from better servers, reduce number of plugins and get/use plugins and themes with less resource hunger (see https://web.dev/time-to-first-byte/?utm_source=lighthouse&utm_medium=unknown#wordpress)…
If you read the same report in GTMetrix for example they will have different suggestions, and some will be the same.
The core point of this single “issue” is that something is making the “first response” slow (the server response is slow). That can, but does not have to be due to the Host.

Cheaper host for example can (but does not have to) mean slower response.

Another example is the “Eliminate render-blocking resources” issue, promising over 2 seconds time saved if improved.

Again inside that section there are suggestions.
This time, they say that

Resources are blocking the first paint of your page. Consider delivering critical JS/CSS inline and deferring all non-critical JS/styles. Learn more.

And again the “learn more” links to instructions how to overcome this issue.

If you repeat that for each of the points in the Google Speed Report, at the end you will have 2 things:
quite a deep knowledge about how to optimise websites
a faster website (if you successfully followed each suggestion they have)

I am working since years with WordPress for myself and as well professionally, and speed optimisation is a major task. It is not easy, neither pleasant, because often you find yourself redo things you thought you are done with just because speed insights tell you did it wrong. You thought a certain calendar library is very cool and looks nice, but google things only “it is slow” and you have to remove it or delay it or else.

So, this is why I say at the begin of this response:
If you have no development experience (or are not willing/have no time to learn certain development aspects and routines) then your only bet here is what your “company” already suggested: contact the company on which I built your website (Zakra), so they can fix it
(Note, of course, it doesnt need to be the precise same company, you can contact any developer or company who specialises in speed optimisation.)

BTW:
Speed and indexing are not necessarily related and google (or bing, or whatever else search engine) may and will index your website even if it is slow. However, specially since recent updates to Google, they may “punish” the site if it is “slow” and not put it in the first couple results.
That is why (apart of the user Experience) a site needs to be optimised.

I hope this helps as a staring point and wish you good luck!

In my experience Google can take upwards of 90 days to search and index a website

Bing is even slower in my experience
