My site is not showing up on google

    Hello,

    it’s been months since I have set up my website and installed Rank Math and it is still not showing up on google.

    My website is: https://mindnotes.gr/

    I have installed it properly in the Google Search Console and I am the verified owner.

    The sitemap: https://mindnotes.gr/sitemap_index.xml appears to be installed correctly in the Search Console “Status = Success”.

    Under coverage however I get the message” URL is not on Google – Coverage: Discovered – currently not indexed”

    I read your Knowledge base and checked my Rank Math settings again and again to see if there is something wrong but I couldn’t find an issue. I also checked my wordpress settings and everything is setup properly as I have done in multiple other web sites I have designed in the past.

    It is the first site I am using Rank Math in and I suspect this might have something to do with this issue since I have never encountered it before.

    Do you have any ideas what I should do to resolve this issue?

    Thank you very much for your time and help.

    Best Regards

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.

    I’ve checked your site, and indeed it is not showing any links on Google. Your sitemap looks fine, however, your robots.txt doesn’t have any rules for crawlers to follow.

    Please use our recommended robots.txt in this link for this issue:

    Once done, give Google some time to recrawl your site.

    I hope that helps.

    Thank you.

    Hello, thank you for your reply – I edited the robots.txt using your recommended settings but still many days later the URL is not on Google.

    Do you have any other suggestions?

    Thank you for your time and help

    Hello,

    The Discovered – currently not indexed status means that Google knows about these URLs, but they haven’t crawled and indexed them yet.

    Here is what Google says about this status:

    Discovered – currently not indexed: The page was found by Google, but not crawled yet. Typically, Google tried to crawl the URL but the site was overloaded; therefore Google had to reschedule the crawl. This is why the last crawl date is empty on the report.

    Please note that it is completely upto Google if they want to index or not index your pages. So, if you haven’t willingly or accidentally made your products noindex and Google still isn’t indexing your products – it means that either Google doesn’t want to index or hasn’t crawled your pages yet because it hasn’t allocated that much crawl budget to your website.

    Please check this website for more details.

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