Hello,
We apologize for the issues you are facing with indexing on Google after installing the Rank Math plugin. Here are some steps you can take to address the various problems you’ve mentioned:
1. No Index Tag
- Ensure that the posts and pages you want indexed do not have the "noindex" tag set. You can check this in the Rank Math Metabox under the Advanced tab. If you find any pages set to "noindex," change them to "index" and update the pages.
2. 404 Errors
- A 404 error indicates that a page is not found. Check if the URLs are correct and if the pages exist. You can also refer to our guide on fixing 404 errors.
3. 403 Errors
- A 403 error means that Googlebot is denied access to your page. To resolve this, check your file permissions, firewall settings, and ensure that Googlebot’s IP addresses are not blocked. More details can be found in our guide on fixing 403 errors.
4. 4xx Problems
- These errors indicate client-side issues. Review your site’s settings and ensure there are no misconfigurations in your robots.txt file or other settings that might block access.
5. Crawled – Currently Not Indexed
- This status can occur for various reasons, including duplicate content or issues with canonical tags. Make sure that your canonical tags are set correctly and that there are no duplicate pages causing confusion for search engines.
For a comprehensive overview of these issues and their fixes, please refer to our detailed guide on fixing indexing issues.
