    Hi team,

    My site is https://socaldryice.com.

    I recently switched to Rank Math, and since then, Google Search Console is showing zero impressions and zero clicks — even though Ahrefs reports thousands of visits and search visibility.

    I recently switched to Rank Math, and since then, Google Search Console is showing zero impressions and zero clicks — even though Ahrefs reports thousands of visits and search visibility.

    Is it possible that Rank Math is misconfiguring something in my sitemap or robots.txt? I want to make sure nothing is blocking Google from crawling or indexing my pages.

    Would appreciate help figuring out what’s going wrong.

    Thanks!

    Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with your site not showing impressions and clicks in Google Search Console after switching to Rank Math. It’s possible that there may be some misconfigurations in your sitemap or robots.txt file that are preventing Google from crawling or indexing your pages.

    Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot this issue:

    1. Check Your Robots.txt File: Ensure that your robots.txt file is not blocking Googlebot from accessing your site. You can view your robots.txt file by visiting https://rankmath.com/kb/fix-google-indexing-issues/. Look for anyDisallow` directives that might be preventing access to important pages.

    2. Review Your Sitemap: Make sure that the correct XML sitemap is submitted to Google Search Console. The sitemap should be located at `https://rankmath.com/kb/fix-google-indexing-issues/. If you have submitted the wrong URL, it could lead to indexing issues.

      • If you encounter any errors related to your sitemap, check for plugin conflicts or issues with caching plugins. You can use the Health Check plugin to identify any conflicts.

    3. Check for Indexing Issues: If your pages are indexed but not showing content, ensure that they have meaningful content and are well-linked within your site. You can refer to our guide on fixing indexing issues for more insights.

    If after checking these settings you still face issues, we recommend replying to this ticket so a human agent from the Rank Math Support team can assist you further in diagnosing the problem.

    Thank you for bringing this concern to our attention! We’re here to help you resolve it.

    Hello,

    Can you please confirm if you’re not able to see the data in Rank Math Analytics? If so, please follow the steps mentioned in this guide and see if that works for you: https://rankmath.com/kb/delete-old-analytics-data/

    If the issue persists, we might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WordPress & FTP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.

    Please do take a complete backup of your website before sharing the information with us.

    Sensitive Data Section

    It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/temporary-login-without-password/

    You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):

    Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to helping you.

    Thank you.
