Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with your website pages getting deindexed after migrating to Rank Math. It can be concerning when pages that were previously indexed are now showing a "Crawled – Currently Not Indexed" status.
Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve this issue:
-
Check for Quality Issues: Ensure that the content on your pages is unique, valuable, and comprehensive. Google may not index pages that it deems to have low quality.
-
Internal Linking: Make sure your important pages have strong internal links from other relevant pages on your site. This can help Google understand the importance of these pages.
-
Duplicate Content: Verify that the pages you are trying to index are not duplicated elsewhere on your site. If they are, consider adding a canonical tag pointing to the original content.
-
Content Audit: Conduct a content audit to identify any outdated or low-value content. You may want to improve these pages or consider removing them altogether, redirecting them, or adding a noindex meta tag if appropriate.
-
Use Instant Indexing: If you haven’t already, consider using Rank Math’s Instant Indexing feature. You can enable this module in your WordPress dashboard under Rank Math SEO settings and submit your pages for indexing directly.
-
Monitor Index Status: You can check your page’s index status within your WordPress dashboard by navigating to Rank Math SEO → Analytics → Index Status.
If you continue to experience issues after trying these steps, we recommend replying to this ticket with any additional details or questions you may have. A human agent from our support team will be able to assist you further.

Hello,
The “Crawled – currently not indexed” status means Google has crawled your page but has not indexed it yet. Finding a certain number of URLs with this status is entirely normal because Google does not index all the URLs we submit.
Here’s a link for more information:

hi Reinelle
Thanks for the reply.
I want to know how can get them indexed, as I have tried the manual submission method.
Hello,
Google assigns a crawl budget to your website depending on these factors (especially these two), and that has a direct effect on how soon or how late your content can get crawled/indexed.
It depends on a lot of factors. Your posting frequency + the domain authority are just two of the many factors Google considers when indexing URLs.
Looking forward to helping you.
