Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with your website not being indexed on Google. It sounds like you’ve already checked for penalties and duplicate content, which is great. Since your sitemap shows 0 pages indexed, there are a few things you can consider:
-
Check Robots.txt File: Ensure that your robots.txt file is not blocking Google from crawling your site. You can use the robots.txt testing tool to verify this.
-
Submit a Sitemap: Make sure you have submitted your sitemap to Google Search Console. Rank Math automatically creates a Sitemap Index for your website, which can be found at https://yourdomainname/sitemap_index.xml
. Submitting this to Google can help them find and crawl your pages.
-
Crawled but Not Indexed: If your pages are crawled but not indexed, it could be due to site-wide issues. You can check the URL Inspection Tool in Google Search Console to see if there are any specific reasons for this status.

-
Manual Indexing Request: If everything seems fine but your site still isn’t indexed, consider submitting a manual indexing request. However, keep in mind that relying on manual submissions may indicate that improvements are needed on your site.
-
Quality Checks: Ensure that your website meets quality standards as outlined by Google. This includes having a good internal linking structure and high-quality content.
If you continue to experience issues, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further. Thank you for raising this concern!

Hello,
Thank you for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
Please note that a sitemap is only one of many ways Google discovers the URLs of your site. If Google discovers the URL through other means, it may not cross-reference your sitemap to check if the URL is there. Hence the “No referring sitemaps” message.
Googlebot may have found the URLs from internal links or possibly from links on another site. It mostly happens when you have good internal linking or use the Instant Indexing plugin.
Here’s a link you can check for more information:

Hope that helps and please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any other questions.
