Indexed, not submitted in sitemap

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Rank Math, and sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Indexed, Not Submitted in Sitemap is not an issue, it only means that Google has already indexed the posts but not through the sitemap.

It is possible that Google is crawling your website and indexing the posts through the internal links on your website and not through the sitemap, and as a result, the crawl budget for your website is exhausted and Google is not able to discover the URLs through your sitemap.

There is nothing to worry about as long as the posts/pages are getting crawled and indexed.

Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
