Hello,
I’m sorry to hear that you’re experiencing issues with your site icon and feature images not showing on Google search. It’s great to hear that your website is already indexed.
It’s important to note that Google may take some time to display the site icon and feature images in search results, even after the website has been indexed. This is a normal part of the indexing process, and it can take a few days or longer for these elements to appear in search results.
To ensure that your site icon and feature images are indexed properly, you can submit the page to Google using the URL Inspection tool in Google Search Console. Here’s how you can do it:
- Navigate to your Google Search Console account.
- Copy the URL of the page you want to submit.
- Paste the URL in the Inspection tool located at the top.
- Click the “TEST LIVE URL” button to check if the page is indexable.
- If the page is not on Google, click on “REQUEST INDEXING” to submit the indexing request.
After sending the request to Google, you might have to wait for a few days (or longer) for indexing to complete.
If everything is fine and Google still decides not to show the site icon and feature images, there might be factors such as authority and context that determine whether they are displayed or not.
I hope this helps! If you have any other questions or concerns, feel free to ask.

I have done it already but now only the feature image is not showing.
Moreover, can you give me a suggestion on what happens and what Google considers it, as Rank Math shows keyword density a bit high? Tell me in detail, Please.
Hello,
Thank you for your patience.
Please note that Rank Math doesn’t have any control over how images in the SERP results are displayed and search engines display them as per their will and it mostly depends on the keyword search term and the website authority.
In this case, you may try to add relevant ALT text to the featured image or image you wanted to show, and chances are search engines will refer to it.
Here’s a guide you can follow as well:

On the other hand, a low keyword density is better than a high keyword density. Even with a low keyword density, there is a good chance that Google will pick on your focus keyword. But, a high keyword density is a bad quality signal, which might get you kicked out from the search results.
Rank Math checks how many times your focus keyword(s) and their combinations have been used in the post. Rank Math looks for both the primary focus keyword and secondary focus keywords to determine your keyword density.

Hope that helps.
