Woocommerce products are not indexing in google

Hi @kristinubute

We understand you have several products on your website that aren’t being indexed or showing up in the search results. If you haven’t yet, we recommend you submit your sitemap generated by Yoast SEO to Google Search Console (it should also include the product sitemap) – https://yoast.com/help/submit-sitemap-search-engines/

You’ll then be able to monitor the submitted URLs (including the WooCommerce product URLs) and Google Search Console should provide statuses or let you know if there’s any reason as to why some of the URLs aren’t being indexed or have been excluded – https://yoast.com/beginners-guide-to-google-search-console/#index-coverage & https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/7440203/

You can use the bulk editor to bulk edit the SEO title and meta description for your products.

Another option (if you don’t want to individually set titles and meta descriptions for your products) is to set the default snippet variables in the search appearance section so that this would be the default title and meta description output for your products – https://yoast.com/snippet-variables/

I have already submitted the Yoast SEO Sitemap previously with all.
I will double check again on Google Console.

Thanks

Is there a no index setting anything in Yoast SEO that could be causing some products being not indexed ?

Thanks
Kristin

Hi @kristinubute

You can check if you’ve set individual products to not show in the search results (or have a ‘noindex’ tag) by following the steps in this article – https://yoast.com/help/how-do-i-noindex-urls/#single

You can then view the page source and see if you find a meta name="robots" tag with the expected value of either ‘index’ or ‘noindex’, depending on the setting.
