post not getting indexed

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing with your posts not getting indexed. It can be frustrating when your content doesn’t appear in search results, especially after putting in so much effort.

There are several factors that could affect the indexing of your posts:

1. Crawl Budget: Google assigns a crawl budget to your website, which can affect how quickly your content is indexed. If your site has low domain authority or infrequent posting, it may take longer for Google to crawl and index your pages.

2. NoIndex Tags: Ensure that your posts are not set to "noindex". You can check this by navigating to WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta and reviewing the settings for your posts. If they are set to "noindex" and you want them indexed, change them to "index" and save the changes. Here’s a visual guide:
   

3. Manual Indexing Request: If you’ve checked the above and your posts still aren’t indexed, consider submitting a manual indexing request through Google Search Console. However, keep in mind that relying on manual submissions may indicate that improvements are needed on your site.

4. Content Quality: Ensure that your content is unique and valuable. Google may not index pages that it deems low-quality or duplicate.

5. Sitemap Configuration: Make sure your sitemap is correctly configured and includes all relevant posts. You can check this under Rank Math SEO → Sitemap Settings.

If you continue to experience issues, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further. Thank you for raising this concern, and we’re here to help!

Hello,

We’ve checked your posts and pages, and they are already set to index. Your sitemaps and robots.txt are also working fine.

Please note that 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 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 some new URLs.

If Google still doesn’t decide to index those pages even after crawling your site again, then there is nothing you can do other than wait.

Since your website is already set to index, then it is just a waiting game before Google decides to include the URL in the search results pages. No SEO plugin can force Google to index something they don’t want to.

With that said, we have found that barring any issues like copied/DMCA/low-quality content issues. You may check this section in your GSC for that:

If there are no manual actions imposed on your site, we request you kindly wait for the SERP to include your site on search results pages.

Looking forward to helping you.
