Search Console thinks my site is HTML

    None of my pages are being indexed because Google says the sitemap is html.

    I’ve confirmed I’m submitting the right one and I don’t use W3 cache.

    What can I do to resolve this?

    Thanks,

    Sean

    Hi Sean,

    Thanks a lot for your query and we are so sorry about the trouble this must have caused.

    Make sure that you submitted the correct XML sitemap to Google. You should submit the sitemap available on your website at https://domain.com/sitemap_index.xml

    If you are sure you submitted the correct URL but you are still facing this error, check for a plugin conflict using Health Check plugin.

    If you are running W3 Total Cache along with Rank Math on your website, make sure you create another user agent group and add the ‘googlebot’ user agent to it.

    Here is a list of common Sitemap issues and their solutions:
