    Google search console is giving me this error
    No: ‘noindex’ detected in ‘X-Robots-Tag’ http header
    And rejecting to index my website.

    When I deactivate the plugin Google accepts the indexing which means there’s an issue with the pulug in.. All my settings are correct and all are on index..

    Can you help, please?

    Thanks very much.

  • Hello,

    Thanks for contacting us, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    I checked a few URLs on your site and it seems they are already set to index and Rank Math is enabled on your site currently.

    Can you please confirm if you were trying to submit your sitemap URL in URL Inspection Tool?

    If not, share a few affected URLs with us here, so that we can check.

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Thank you.

    Hi Sakib,

    Thanks for you prompt reply. yes, I have tried the inspection tool. If you check the domain in Google it’s not there and none of the pages… Even though the website has been up and running for almost 10 days now.

    What do you think the issue is?

    Thanks

    Hello,

    If you’re submitting sitemap URL in URL Inspection Tool, then you shouldn’t be worried about that, as it’s completely fine and absolutely normal to have noindex tag on your sitemap URLs. Because, by default, sitemap URLs are set to noindex as it is not meant to be indexed and appear in the search results.

    The sitemap should only be submitted in the sitemaps sections in the Search Console.

    If you’re mentioning about posts/pages of your website that are being noindexed, please share the affected URLs with us, so that we can investigate the issue further for you.

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Thank you.

    Hi Sakib,

    I think it’s ok now but I’ll give it some days to allow Google to crawl and find the pages after submitting it.

    Thanks for your help.

    Regards,
