Sitemap Issues Post-Site Migration

    Rank Math free

    Upfront I am a complete amateur so please bare with me.

    I recently worked with my web hosting provider (ipage) to take a website I build on WordPress using Divi from a subdomain and point it to my main domain. The site looks to be working fine, but what I am noticing is that my SEO results on Google still reference my old site pages and information.

    After reaching out to my iPage support team to ask them what I need to do they advised that the wordpress folder that they pointed my main domain to pull from does not have a sitemap uploaded.

    Can someone help me understand the best way to pull my sitemap from RankMath so I can upload it to my iPage wordpress folder as well as submit the sitemap for Google?

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.

    Please note that Rank Math’s sitemaps are generated dynamically, which means that the XML files are non-existing in your website files. However, you can follow the steps in this link to submit your sitemap to Google:

    To remove the URL/s from your sitemap, you may need to ensure that the page is set to noindex:

    Hope that helps.
