Issues with page not being indexed

#968380
  • Hello,
    I just downloaded your app and followed the video to set it up. I had issues setting up the google console already and had to do it manually. Now I have received an email from Google stating the following:
    New reasons preventing your pages from being indexed
    Search Console has identified that some pages on your site are not being indexed due to the following new reasons:

    Not found (404)
    Excluded by ‘noindex’ tag
    Page with redirect
    Duplicate without user-selected canonical

    If any of these reasons are not intentional, we recommend that you fix them in order to get affected pages indexed and appearing on Google.

    They also sent an index report.
    I’m new to wordpress so not sure if this is normal or not or how to fix it.

    Please help. Thank you.

  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issues you are facing with your pages not being indexed. Thank you for raising this concern. Here’s a breakdown of the reasons you mentioned and how to address them:

    1. Not Found (404)

    This error indicates that the page does not exist. You should check the URLs of the affected pages and ensure they are correct. If they are supposed to exist, you may need to recreate them.

    2. Excluded by ‘noindex’ tag

    If a page has a ‘noindex’ tag, it tells search engines not to index that page. You can check this in your Rank Math settings or in the page’s meta settings. If you want the page indexed, remove the ‘noindex’ tag.

    3. Page with Redirect

    If a page is redirecting to another URL, ensure that the redirect is intentional. If it’s not, you may need to fix or remove the redirect.

    4. Duplicate without user-selected canonical

    This means that Google has found duplicate content but doesn’t know which version to index. To resolve this, you should set a canonical URL on the duplicate pages pointing to the original content you want indexed. You can find more information on how to do this in our guide on how to change canonical URL.

    For more details on fixing these indexing issues, you can refer to our comprehensive guide on how to fix Google indexing issues.
