    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    Could you share a screenshot where you are seeing that issue and also share your website URL in the Sensitive Data section so we can check it?

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Hello,

    I checked your site on Google with site:yourdomain.com and I got only 6 results.

    After that, I checked the sitemap and it seems it contains only 5 pages.

    So I am not sure why you are getting that, do you get the same number of pages on the Search Console website? Or only in Rank Math?

    Looking forward to help you.

    Hi,I also check site:domain and it’s normal,on search console I get number of pages around 30 but they are not indexed.Maybe I could change password to see will it stop increasing.

    Hello,

    We just pull the data from Google Search Console.

    Could you please check what the pages are mentioned in your actual Search Console?
    https://search.google.com/search-console/about

    Rank Math takes that data and adds that to your WP Dashboard. We do not cross check if the data provided by Google is correct or not.

    With that said, some of the additional pages indexed could be your archives, author archives, date archives, etc..

    Hi,search console only shows my 5 pages and that’s ok.Now on dashboard under rank math it show 86 total pages and I don’t understand why that number constantly increasing.When I click on search console thru rank math I see total pages around 50…

    Hello,

    Can you please try removing the cache and see if that helps?

    Sometimes Google can get wonky with their API.

    Please let us know if that helps. Thank you.

    Hi,You want me to first delete all cache and then update manually or just to click on update without deleting?

    Hello,

    Once you have deleted the cache you can update it manually or give it sometime to fetch and update by itself. Let us know how this goes.

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Hello,

    We use Google API to get these details from Google Search Console and sometimes the data is not accurate. You can choose to ignore the data shown or optionally install the Google Site Kit plugin, if you do so ensure you disable Rank math Search console module in Rank math dashboard.

    Hope that helps. If you have any further question(s), please let us know. Thank you.
