Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math support, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
Rank Math can include absolute or complete URL paths in the destination (http/https and www/non-www), however, you can’t do that in the source URL and we don’t allow that at the moment.
Rank Math doesn’t allow domain level redirection which is why you can’t add an absolute URL in the source URL path.
I would suggest to configure these type of redirections over .htaccess.
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
Hi Jeremy,
Thank you very much for your reply and for the clarification. It would be great if Frank math offered an option to do this. I hope they consider it for the future. I also have one more question for you:
I am having some strange indexing issues with a (super high quality) website, and I’m wondering what your experience is and recommendations are around using the RankMath API Instant indexing plugin. I know that it’s technically only recommended for things like forums and job post sites, but I have had people tell me to try it even for regular content sites to help fix quirky indexing issues.
RankMath says on the page related to this part of the plug-in that we should proceed at our own risk, but doesn’t really say more. is there any actual risk associated with trying it this way?
I wanted to see if you guys were able to give any input on this. Any help is much appreciated. I would really appreciate it. Thank you!
Hello,
Yes, the API officially supports pages containing Job Posting and Livestream structured data, and it is recommended to use only on such websites.
However, from our internal tests and our public beta, it seems that Google crawls, indexes (if the content is original, new, and helpful), and follows links on any page you submit through the API, regardless of its structured data.
Furthermore, this does not always result in the indexation of the content. It may take anywhere from minutes to days or even weeks before a URL shows up in the search results. Using this plugin doesn’t guarantee that your pages will show up in the search results.
Here’s a link for more information:

Hope that helps.
Thank you.
