Good day, admin. For the past few weeks, Google and Bing have not indexed my website. What could be the cause, and how can I find a lasting solution to this.

Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with Google and Bing not indexing your website. There are several potential causes for this problem:
1. Blocked Crawling
If you have accidentally blocked Google or Bing from crawling your site, it will not appear in search results. Check your robots.txt file to ensure that there are no directives preventing these search engines from accessing your site. You can use the robots.txt testing tool to verify this.
2. Not Indexed Yet
If your website is new, it may take some time for Google and Bing to index it. This process can take a few weeks. In the meantime, you can use our Instant Indexing plugin for Google to submit your URLs directly to Google, which can help speed up the indexing process.
3. Noindex Attribute
Ensure that your pages do not have a
noindex
attribute set, which would prevent them from being indexed by search engines. You can check this in your WordPress settings or through the source code of your pages.4. Crawl Budget
Google assigns a crawl budget to your website based on various factors, including domain authority and posting frequency. If your site has low authority or infrequent updates, it may affect how quickly your content is indexed.
5. Manual Indexing Request
If you’ve checked everything and your website still hasn’t been indexed, consider submitting a manual indexing request to Google. However, keep in mind that relying on manual submissions may indicate that improvements are needed on your site.
For more detailed guidance, you can refer to our articles on why your website might not be showing up in Google search and how to fix indexing issues.
If you continue to experience issues, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.
Thank you for raising this concern!

Hello,
We’ve checked your site using the
site:
operator on Google, and it is already indexed.If a URL is on Google, there is technically no reason for it to not be included in Bing or other search engines, unless they have some reason to not index a page like DMCA, copyright content, nulled content, copied content, etc. which you can check in Webmaster Guidelines set by Bing.
In this case, you can get in touch with the Bing team to know the exact reason as from checking the page’s source code, there are no apparent issues.
Looking forward to helping you.

Hello,
The URLs you shared are already set to index. Also, your sitemap and robots.txt are working fine.
In this case, you should check your Google Search Console > Indexing > Pages section to determine the reason why those URLs are not yet appearing on search results page:
