Noindex

Hello, we apologize for the issue you are facing regarding the noindex status of some pages.

Even if the Rank Math parameter is set to Index, there are a few reasons why a page might still be marked as noindex:

1. Global Settings: Check your global settings in WordPress. Navigate to WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta and ensure that the noindex option is not enabled for the specific post type (Posts/Pages/Products/CPTs).

2. Robots Meta Tag: Sometimes, a manual addition of a noindex tag in the page’s HTML can override the Rank Math settings. You can inspect the page source to see if a noindex directive is present.

3. Content Duplication: If there are duplicate pages, Google may choose not to index them. In such cases, adding a canonical URL pointing to the original content can help.
   

4. Robots.txt File: Ensure that your robots.txt file does not contain any disallow rules that might prevent indexing. You can check and edit this in Rank Math under WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → General Settings → Edit Robots.txt.
   

5. Google Penalties: If your site has been penalized by Google, it may affect indexing. You can check this by searching for your website on Google to see if it appears in the results.
