Hello, we apologize for the indexing issues you are experiencing with your site voxyjam.com.ng.
Based on the information you provided, it seems like there might be a configuration issue causing your new posts to be indexed incorrectly. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the problem:
-
Check for Noindex Attribute: Ensure that your new posts do not have the noindex attribute present. This attribute can prevent search engines from indexing your website properly. You can verify this by checking the settings in Rank Math SEO or directly on the post/page.
-
WordPress Global Settings: Verify the global settings in WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta → Posts/Pages/Products/CPTs. Also, make sure that the “_Discourage Search engines…” option is not enabled in WordPress Dashboard → Settings → Reading.
-
Robots.txt Rules: Check your website’s robots.txt file to ensure that there are no disallow tags preventing Google from crawling and indexing your pages. You can edit the robots.txt file using Rank Math’s editor in WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → General Settings → Edit Robots.txt.
By following these steps, you may be able to identify and resolve the issues causing your new posts to be indexed incorrectly. If the problem persists or if you need further assistance, feel free to reply to this ticket, and a human agent from our support team will assist you promptly. Thank you for bringing this concern to our attention.

That upload portal is not working for me
Hello,
Thank you for your patience.
You can use https://prnt.sc/ or https://snipboard.io/ to upload screenshots and share them here.
Moreover, please note that ranking on Google with your desired keywords/keyphrase depends on so much more than just your on-page optimization. You could have the perfect article and still struggle to break the top 10 in SERPs. Here are some of the factors Google considers when ranking you:
1. Your website’s authority
2. Your content’s quality and how better it is than the other article currently ranking.
3. How competitive the keyword is.
4. How many backlinks do you have and if they are better than what the other guys ranking for that keyword have.
5. Your website’s crawlability.
6. Frequency of new content and content updates.
7. So much more that there is a dedicated blog post on it by Brian Dean:
https://backlinko.com/google-ranking-factorsI would recommend that you keep at it and work on acquiring more links to break into the top SERPs.
Looking forward to helping you.
Here’s kink to the screenshot
