    Trouble with the Yoast SEO generated sitemap.

    Submitted it to search.google.com (couldn’t fetch). Followed the steps you recommend to resolve it. Upon re-submitting it to google, same couldn’t fetch error.

    So submitted the sitemap to xml-sitemaps.com and get this:
    Incorrect http header content-type: “” (expected: “application/xml”)

    Please advise.

  • Hi @levocskram,

    We’re seeing that the content type appears to be ‘text/html’, which usually happens when the sitemaps are being cached. Can you take the recommended steps to exclude the sitemaps from being cached and let us know if that solves the problem.

    We have more details in this guide: https://yoast.com/help/exclude-sitemaps-from-cache/.
