Google not surfacing multiple clients' new pages in search, despite first page positions in Bing and DuckDuckGo.

I'm a content manager at an inbound marketing agency. I regularly publish blog posts to our clients' sites and follow best practices with regard to using Google Search Console to point Google toward new posts.

Two of our client sites have incredible success in search, but for a few weeks now, Google appears to be throttling any newly published posts that would have otherwise ranked for high-volume keyword phrases despite Bing and DuckDuckGo ranking them #1-#3 within days for the same queries. Search Console confirms they've been indexed, and they do show up in SERP for direct title queries, but anything short of searching for exact titles renders them invisible.

I'm just perplexed that this is happening at the same time for multiple clients with wholly different domains—and the fact that other search engines are ranking them where I'd expect them to land leads me to believe it's not a technical problem within the CMS or any other property I'm in control of.

Has anyone experienced this or something similar? Is there any evidence that Google recently "slowed" the inclusion of fresh content on first-page SERPS for higher volume search keyword phrases? Any thoughts or advice is welcome!
