Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with your blogs not being indexed by Google. There are several factors that could prevent your posts from being indexed. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:
1. Check for Noindex Attribute
Ensure that your posts or pages do not have the noindex
attribute set. This can prevent search engines from indexing your content. You can check this in the Rank Math settings:
- Go to WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta and ensure that the
noindex
option is not enabled for your posts.
2. Global Settings in WordPress
Make sure that the global settings in WordPress are configured correctly:
- Navigate to Settings → Reading and ensure that the Discourage search engines from indexing this site option is unchecked.
3. Robots.txt File
Check your robots.txt
file to ensure it does not contain any rules that block Google from crawling your site. You can edit your robots.txt
file in Rank Math:
- Go to WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → General Settings → Edit Robots.txt.
4. New Website Considerations
If your website is relatively new, it may take some time for Google to index all pages. Be patient, as it can take a few weeks for new content to be indexed.
5. Manual Indexing Request
If you’ve checked all of the above and your content still isn’t indexed, consider submitting a manual indexing request through Google Search Console.
If you continue to experience issues after following these steps, 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!
