Hello, I’m sorry to hear about the issue you’re facing with your website’s homepage not being updated in the search results. It seems like the new homepage URL is not included in the sitemap submitted to Google Search Console.
To resolve this, you can follow these steps:
-
Check if your sitemap is accessible using this tool. Enter your sitemap URL and check the status to identify any issues preventing your sitemap from being accessed by the Googlebot.
-
If the sitemap is being cached, you need to exclude Sitemaps from caching. You can also go through our tutorial on how to exclude Sitemaps from caching here.
-
Ensure that you have submitted the correct sitemap. You need to submit sitemap_index.xml
and ensure that all the inner sitemaps, like post-sitemap.xml, etc., are showing up in your Google Search Console while clicking on sitemap_index.xml
file.
If you’re still facing the issue after following these steps, please feel free to reach out to our support team directly from here, and we’re always here to help.
I hope this helps!
