Hello,
I have started my blog a month ago and I am using Yoast SEO version 15.9.1.
My current problem is that all the articles I write are not indexed by Google. It seems that only pages and categories are well indexed and returned (for example when I do a google search with “site:metacosme.me”)
I have read the support forum and the documentation and did just as described in https://yoast.com/help/submit-sitemap-search-engines/#google and https://yoast.com/help/fetch-as-googlebot/
Here is a summary of what I have done/checked so far :
– In the Yoast SEO settings I have checked that the XML sitemap is enabled
– In the Google Search Console, sitemaps section, I have uploaded ‘ https://metacosme.me/sitemap_index.xml ‘
* It says that it was successfully processed but that zero urls where discovered (https://imgur.com/ONlC5en – https://imgur.com/sv556ho)
* I did it for the first time on February 15th 2021
* I did it again on March 5th 2021 but still the same
– In the Google Search Console, coverage section, I have only 6 urls (my 3 pages and my 3 categories)
*It says that pages where indexed but not recovered through a sitemap (https://imgur.com/9nyLJ08 – https://imgur.com/PIJKbjo )
– In the Google Search Console, I also tried to directly look at one of my article using the url inspection tool
* It says that the page is not indexed
* I tried a live test and everything seems to be valid (https://imgur.com/qfiUaOJ)
* I tried to request an indexation and it says that my request as been approved (i’m sure I did this on February, I did it again today to be sure)
So in a nutshell it seems that the sitemap is somehow not working. I am new to this and don’t know what else I can do to fix that.
Any hint would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Isabelle
