    Rank Math free

    My article was published yesterday at noon, but the relevant links and information of this article have not been updated in my sitemap. I have tried to disable and re-enable RankMath, delete the website’s cache, etc., but it still does not work. What should I do? This problem has seriously affected the speed at which Google indexes my article. Is it a technical problem of RankMath or a problem with my clearing the cache? Looking forward to your reply.

    Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with your article not appearing in your sitemap. It can be frustrating when your content isn’t being indexed as quickly as you’d like.

    Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot this issue:

    1. Check Sitemap Settings: Ensure that your sitemap settings in Rank Math are configured correctly. You can find the sitemap settings under Rank Math > Sitemap Settings in your WordPress dashboard.

    2. Sitemap Index: Make sure that the sitemap index is being generated correctly. You can access it at https://yourdomainname/sitemap_index.xml. Check if your article is listed there.

    3. Submit Sitemap to Google: If your article is still not appearing, try manually submitting your sitemap to Google Search Console. This can sometimes prompt Google to crawl your site more quickly.

    4. Wait for Updates: Sometimes, it may take a little time for new articles to appear in the sitemap, especially if your site is new or has low domain authority.

    5. Clear Cache: Since you’ve already cleared your website’s cache, ensure that any caching plugins are fully cleared and that there are no server-side caches affecting the visibility of your sitemap.

    If you’ve tried all these steps and the issue persists, it might be beneficial to consider our professional setup service, which ensures that your Rank Math plugin is set up correctly and adheres to the latest SEO standards. You can find more information about this service at Rank Math Professional Setup Service.
