    Rank Math free

    Hello

    I am using rank Math from last 2 weeks, before Rank Math I am using Yoast and everything is perfect.

    After installing Rank Math I am import all data to rank Math and it’s affect my ranking, and I noticed that sitemap is not updated regularly I noticed many time when I post a new post and see my sitemap the post takes more 24 hrs to update on sitemap.

    I checked all my settings 😑 everything is okay before Rank Math my seo ranking on 2 second page on Google and now my seo ranking is 3rd page on Google this is not good.

    I do all basics/advance settings and everything is okay from my side, now I don’t understand what’s the problem why my ranking goes down and down …

    Please check my site 🙏 and tell me is anything I am doing wrong…

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    For your sitemap to update with every new post, you should exclude your sitemap URLs from caching on your site.

    Could you please share the Keyword(s) we can use to check your site on Google.

    Please note that ranking on Google depends on so much more than just your on-page optimization. You could have the perfect article and still struggle to break the top 10 in SERPs. Here are some of the factors Google considers when ranking you:

    1. Your website’s authority

    2. Your content’s quality and how better it is than the other article currently ranking.

    3. How competitive the keyword is.

    4. How many backlinks you have and if they are better than what the other guys ranking for that keyword have.

    5. Your website’s crawlability.

    6. Frequency of new content and content updates.

    7. So much more that there is a dedicated blog post on it by Brian Dean 🙂

    Hello,

    I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?

    Thank you.

    So please tell me how I can exclude a sitemap from caching.

    Where I find these settings or I add some codes on WordPress manually.

    I have 170 posts on my site and sitemap show only 168.

    1 Post I write yesterday and 1 Post I write today morning but why they are not updated on the sitemap.

    and thanks for your reply

    Hello,

    To exclude you your sitemap from being cached, just head over to the plugin and you should either see an exclude tab usually under cache. You can also Google your cache plugin manuals to see where to exclude URLs/URIs from being cached As for the rules to add, just add the following rules then purge your cache:

    (.*)sitemap(.*)
     (.*)sitemap.xsl
    

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
