Don't get too excited, i could be jumping the gun..
I developed a MNS a good few months ago which I haven't worked on since my dad passed away. Around a week or 2 ago I decided to check in on it. Noticed only 4 pages indexed.
Did some searching on here and found it to be a common problem.
Site info
Previously used domain
22 High quality articles, 1000-1800 word count.
About, contact, privacy, terms and conditions, cookie policy
15+ Short news articles which consist of rewrote title and roughly 50-150 words news. Title is linked to original news source which opens in new tab.
Imported youtube videos 50+ using plugin
Cheap shared web host
Hosted on https:www.
----------------
Logged into google search console
No manual actions
No security issues
sitemap submitted not indexed
Tried submitting an URL to URL inspection and got the following error "URL not in property"
HUH, of course it is?
--------------
I checked the coverage section
27 excluded . WHY????????
Then I noticed something
The way the domain was listed in the google search property didn't match how I've got the domain set up.
I have the domain set up to work as https://www.DOMAIN.com
however it was listed in google search console as domain.com
I removed the property from search console and added the new one as the domain is set up https://www.domain.com
Verified it.
resubmitted sitemap
Left it a few days, BOOOM, sitemap success, new pages started showing in google, albeit slow! 2nd day in a row with new pages indexed!
The only other thing I did was I removed rankmath.
Maybe I'm been premature, but its good early results!
