RankMath with WPML – Indexing problem

    Hello,

    I have a multilanguage Divi site (1 domain per language). All are connected by WPML
    Divi indexing options are blocked with a note: “The below options are handled via the Rank Math SEO”
    Indexing by Google, Bing Yandex – doesn’t work
    How to fix it? Can I hire somebody to do that right?
    Thanks a lot,
    Marek

  • Hello,

    Thank you for your query and we are so sorry about the trouble this must have caused.

    This is true as you don’t want to have Divi’s built-in SEO conflicting with our SEO settings. Having both will cause duplicate meta and unexpected SEO set on the front end.

    Please refer to this settings page I shared in the sensitive data section instead to configure your content SEO.

    If you are still having issues indexing your pages, please share some of the affected URLs here so we can take a closer look at them.

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Hello Jeremy,

    I checked your link. It’s a RankMath general setting. I don’t know what to choose here? A Twitter card design?
    I describe a problem again:

    A multilingual/multidomain Divi site
    + WPML
    + RankMath
    = NoIndexing or Index problem from Google to Yandex
    = 10 visitors a month instead of a one-language separate Divi site with 30 visitors a day
    Check this problem, please
    Thank you
    Marek

    Hello,

    I’ve checked your posts and pages, and they are already set to index. Your sitemap and robots.txt are working fine as well.

    Indexing by Google, Bing Yandex – doesn’t work

    Could you please confirm where are you getting this message?

    If you’re website’s not indexing, then you may check your Google Search Console coverage section to determine any issues reported on your pages:

    Hello Reinelle,

    when you open my site in admin mode check RankMath setting for different domains/languages, please
    I have English version/domain, Spanish, Italian and French one.
    When you write in RankMath Webmaster Tools for example code of Google Search Console for english version/domain you will see the same in other languages/domains. Maybe here is a problem?
    I think WPML is responsible for multilingual/multidomain sites but RankMath is responsible for SEO. Thats why Im asking you for help

    Regarding Inexing. Lets take for example Spanish ersion/domain;
    1 click for last half a year
    https://yachtdelivery.es/sitemap.xml
    Last read: 4/8/23
    Discovered pages: 0
    Discovered videos: 0
    Sitemap can be read, but has errors
    Sitemap is HTML
    Line 2: Tag: html

    Hello,

    In Rank Math > General Settings > Webmaster Tools, the Google Search Console verification ID is already applied to all of your website’s versions. That should not cause issues since you’re verifying the same domain. You can also verify that in their page’s source code.

    Regarding the sitemap you have shared, please remove and resubmit your main sitemap only /sitemap_index.xml as the sitemap link you have is redirecting to your homepage.

    Here’s a link for more information:

    Hope that helps.

    Thank you.

    Hello Reinelle,

    the problem is still unsolved
    Once again here is a multilanguage site structure:
    webpage.eu – English – Main one
    webpage.fr – French
    webpage.it – Italian
    webpage.es – Spanish

    Indexing by Rankmath – When I open RankMath -> Webmaster Tools -> Google Search Console I can write their ID.
    But when I did it for one page I saw the same on other pages/languages
    For example:
    webpage.eu has Google ID: G-xxxxxxxx
    when I put it in your Webmaster Tools I can see it in every page
    But every page is unique. They have different sub-page names, etc.
    Getting crazy
    Probably it’s not a tool for multilanguage/multidomain sites like that

    Regarding removing bad index files from GSC – the link is useless.
    I can read how to add, but not how to remove
    In some help pages, I saw a method to click close to the index file in GSC and choose DELETE. But I don’t have it in my GSC. On the Internet, I found only other confused people without any support from Google

    Is there anybody who can help me for money I fix this site professionally? You know, I spent a year getting nothing. I think if a webpage can not be indexed and doesn’t exist in Internet it’s a total collapse

    Thanks
    Marek

    Hello,

    Since you have a single WordPress installation, our plugin will add the same tag across all the versions of your site. You will have to check with WPML if they have the option to add the site verification tag for different domains as they will be in a better position to help you further with this.

    And here is a screencast to help you with removing the sitemap from your GSC account: https://i.rankmath.com/v/SzI8wi

    Hope that helps. Let us know if you need any other assistance.
