IndexNow requests not indexed

Hello, I’m sorry to hear that your IndexNow requests are not being indexed. It’s important to ensure that your products are indexed to drive traffic from organic search.

To address this issue, you can start by checking the last crawl date in the Google Search Console for your product sitemap “https://rankmath.com/kb/switch-from-easy-to-advanced-mode“. This will help you determine if Google has seen the updated sitemap yet.

If the last crawl date is not after you published the products, then Google might not have seen the updated sitemap yet. In this case, you need to be patient and wait for Google to crawl the sitemap.

If you don’t want to wait, you can try deleting the sitemap from the Google Search Console and then re-adding it. Here’s how you can do that:

1. In the Google Search Console, click on “sitemap_index.xml” and find the last crawl date for individual sitemaps.
2. If the last crawl date is not recent, click on the three dots in the top-right corner and choose the “Remove sitemap” option.
3. Once removed, you can add it again by entering the sitemap URL and clicking the “SUBMIT” button.

Additionally, if you’re using Rank Math’s Instant Indexing feature, you can also submit your product URLs manually to IndexNow-enabled search engines. This can help ensure that your products are indexed in a timely manner.

If you’ve already tried these steps and are still facing issues, please feel free to reach out to our support team here, who are available 24×7 and will assist you as soon as possible.

I hope this helps!
