Hi, strange enough my blogposts are not indexed… I cannot find what it;s about… added sitemap to robots.txt and to Google Search Console… Cannot find <no follow> tags on te blog…
So, if you can, please help me out. Details are in private area
Hey Jooster,
Thank you for the inquiry.
How or where do you check this? The meta tag seems to be set correctly for the blog overview page and the single post page.
<meta name="robots" content="index, follow, max-image-preview:large, max-snippet:-1, max-video-preview:-1">
Are you using a plugin to create the sitemap?
Best regards,
Ismael
YEs, Yoast… i am also suprised…. the rest of the websites ranks well…. but not one of the blogposts
Hi,
The posts are actually included in the sitemap. Did you try to resubmit the sitemap to the search engine? (see private field)
You may need to manually specify each sitemap in the robot.txt file instead of declaring the index file. Example:
Sitemap: https://e-commercemanagers.com/post-sitemap1.xml
Sitemap: https://e-commercemanagers.com/post-sitemap2.xml
Please note that this process could take a while, so you may have to wait if you have just recently added your sitemap.
Best regards,
Ismael
I think I know what it is… all other pages/portfolio/products have a canonical URL by default… Posts don’t have a canonical URL by default… can I switch this ON somewhere in the Theme Settings?
Hi,
The canonical URL actually exists in the posts as you can can see in the example below.
<link rel="canonical" href="https://e-site.com/b2b-koopsignalen/">
Are you using the Yoast plugin? You can manually enable it the plugin’s settings.
