    Hello,

    I checked your site and it seems your homepage is already indexed on Google:

    img

    Please note that it is completely normal for a newly published post/page/website to take time before it gets crawled or indexed by Google. It depends on a lot of factors. Your posting frequency + the domain authority are just two of the many factors Google considers when indexing some new URL. Google assigns a crawl budget to your website depending on these factors (especially these two) and that has a direct effect on how soon or how late your content can get indexed.

    You can also check for noindex tag here to rule out that your page isn’t getting indexed due to a mistake in plugin settings:
    https://smallseotools.com/meta-tags-analyzer/

    If noindex is not present, then it is just a waiting game before Google decides to include the URL in the index. No SEO plugin can force Google to index something they don’t want to.

    With that said, we have found that barring any issues like copied/DMCA/low quality content issues – Google usually indexes posts within a week or two. So, we request you to kindly wait.

    Google even says that on their official website:

    The above screenshot was taken from this page:
    https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/7552505#missing-jobs

    So, you have to be a bit patient and allow it some time. If your website isn’t indexed even after a week, you can place a manual indexing request here:

    Finally, it all boils down to the quality of the content and if your content improves Google’s overall search index.

    Please check this article where one of the Google employees mentioned:

    “If your site relies on manual index submission for normal content, you need to significantly improve your site. Search console does not fix your site, you need to do that yourself.” – JohnMu

    With that said, here’s a good article on how to ensure that your website gets indexed regularly:

    Hope that helps. If you have any further question(s), please let us know. Thank you.

    Good morning!
    Thank you so much for your help Michael! You gave me a lot of great insights and I feel a lot better. When I typed in exactly what you had in your first picture, I had nothing appear. I did change the Google Search Console from a Domain to a URL Prefix. It may just take some more time for Google to reconfigure that. I used the Small SEO Tools website and its says that the website is displayed on a search engine page. I used the “URL Inspection” tool on the Google Search Console and it says the URL I pur in, which is the HomePage, is in fact on Google! Thank you again for all of your help and if I have any further questions I will let you know. I will wait a week to see what happens, thanks!
