NoIndex Issue

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing with the noindex tags on your newer pages. Thank you for providing detailed information and screenshots, which will help us understand the problem better.

To address the noindex issue, please follow these steps:

1. Check Rank Math Metabox: Open the specific product category page in the WordPress Editor. If you are using the Gutenberg Editor, click the Rank Math SEO icon in the top-right corner to open the Rank Math Metabox. For Classic Editor, scroll down to find the Rank Math Metabox.

   

2. Enable SEO Controls: If the Rank Math Metabox is not visible, ensure that you have enabled Add SEO Controls from Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta Settings → Pages (or the relevant section).

   

3. Advanced Tab: In the Rank Math Metabox, navigate to the Advanced Tab. If you cannot find this tab, make sure you have switched to Advanced Mode in Rank Math.

   

4. Change Robots Meta: Check if the Robots Meta is set to No Index. If it is, simply select the Index checkbox and update the page.

   

5. Titles & Meta Settings: Additionally, navigate to WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta and check each tab to ensure that noindex is not set as a default value for your product categories.

6. Clear Cache: If you are using any caching plugins, clear your cache after making these changes to ensure they reflect on the front end.

7. Resubmit Sitemap: After making these adjustments, consider resubmitting your sitemap in Google Search Console to ensure that Google recognizes the changes.

   

If you have followed these steps and are still experiencing issues, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from our support team will assist you further.

Thank you for your patience, and we hope this helps resolve your issue!
