    Notice the

    Why is that there? How do I change that?

    Google does not find the page even with literal text search

    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.

    There are a few things you must check for in order to see why the posts aren’t getting indexed.

    1. Make sure the post is not selected as ‘noindex’ in WP > Posts > Your Post > Advanced Tab in Rank Math.
    Screenshot:

    Individual Post Advanced Tab

    2. Ensure that the noindex is not selected for Global or Posts meta:

    Noindex Settings

    3. Check the sitemap settings and check if the posts are setup to be included in the sitemaps:

    Post Settings

    Please note that some options are only available when you enable the Advanced Mode in Rank Math. If it’s not showing, you must have chosen to use the Easy Mode. Please follow the steps in this link to switch to Advanced Mode:

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

    Thank you.

    I don’t see that option for Posts, but this is a Page – all my settings are as attached.

    Please see the pdf

    I must be missing something?

    Hello,

    You have discouraged search engines from indexing your site.

    Please head over to WordPress dashboard > Settings > Reading > Search Engine Visibility > Uncheck the checkbox > Save
    save

    I hope this helps. Looking forward to helping you.
