Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.
I’ve checked your site on Google, and there are plenty of URLs that are already indexed including your homepage
Please note that ranking on Google depends on so much more than just your on-page optimization. You could have the perfect article and still struggle to break the top 10 in SERPs.
Here are some of the factors Google considers when ranking you:

I hope that helps.
Thank you.
no its not, when I update rank math its just removed the robot.txt, then its again back, but ranking its not. and why my site not indexing in bing,
Hello,
Thank you for providing additional information.
Would you please share the Bing Webmasters Search performance screenshot with us. You can use the tools like https://imgur.com/ to share screenshot with us. If the website is indexed and showing in Google, it means that there’s no issue with the website “sitemap” or “robots” file. I would also suggest posting the question to the Bing support.
Please be advised, updating plugin cannot suddenly take down the website from search engine.
Looking forward to helping you.
Thank you

Hello,
I’ve checked your site on Google, and your URLs are already indexed there. Also, your sitemap and robots.txt are working fine.
If a URL is on Google, there is technically no reason for it to not be included in Bing or other search engines, unless they have some reason to not index a page like DMCA, copyright content, nulled content, copied content, etc.
In this case, you can get in touch with the Bing team to know the exact reason as from checking the page’s source code, there are no apparent issues. You can refer to all the Webmaster Guidelines and see if your website is violating any guidelines.
Hope that helps.
Thank you.

Also, Bing is reading your sitemap properly. I’ve attached a screenshot in the sensitive data section for your reference.

Hello,
Please note that having downtime of your sitemap shouldn’t cause any ranking or indexing issues. Sitemaps are made as a “backup” crawling mechanism. The ranking issue you experienced may be just temporary or coming from Google’s searching algorithm update.
With that said, we would like to help you with your issues in your instant indexing and sitemap. Please enable back the Instant Indexing so we can see the error on your sitemap that you are referring to.
Lookiong forward.
Robert, you’re not crazy, my 7 year old site is having the same problem. I switched from yoast to Rank math and the timing couldn’t have been worse. Because of google’s horrible update at the end of april beginning of may 2023, our site that was number 1 in 153 keywords is now number 4. We switched to rankmath the week before the changes. Our company went from high sales to no sales in 15 days. We’ve checked everything from backlink changes to page experience stats, keyword drops, everything and can not find the issues and the ONLY thing that has changed is our switch to rankmath.
Rankmath, google is a new beast, and is update has changed, are you changing with it? Google’s I/O was last week, did you watch it? The things that worked before no longer work. Time for update y’all! I know google doesn’t give out ALL it’s algorithms but there’s more changes coming soon and it’s about to be a horrible year if our sales don’t go back up.
Hello @sg-8838,
Thank you for reaching out to us and bringing your concern and take about this issue.
When your website is affected by a major or even minor algorithm update (which is perfectly normal), the course of action is to check your content if it stays good in the eyes of the search engine. If it requires changes on the meta tags or from our side, this is where we update the plugin right away to address that update.
This is also why we have published our Google Updates page here: https://rankmath.com/google-updates/
To address that, we also have provided these articles:
https://rankmath.com/kb/google-algorithm-updates/
https://rankmath.com/blog/google-algorithm-update-recovery/
https://rankmath.com/google-update/march-2023-core-algorithm-update/
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need my assistance with anything else.
