Hello,
I’m sorry to hear that you are facing a critical error related to Instant Indexing when publishing a post or Google Web Story. To address this issue, please follow these steps:
-
Check API Key: Ensure that the API key associated with your Bing account is correctly copied and pasted into Rank Math. You can get the API key from your Bing Webmaster Tools account under Settings → API Access → API Key.
-
Instant Indexing Settings: In your WordPress admin area, navigate to Rank Math SEO → Instant Indexing. Under the Settings tab, add the Bing API Key and click the Save Changes button.
-
Regenerating API Key: Avoid regenerating the API key in Bing Webmaster Tools as it will invalidate the existing key. If you regenerate the key, copy the new one and update it in Rank Math.
If you continue to experience the critical error after following these steps, please feel free to reply to this ticket, and a human agent from our support team will assist you promptly.
Thank you for reaching out to us!
