Looks like .com.uk isn’t a valid domain extension, that’s probably why Google isn’t indexing it or fetching the sitemap. Try using .co.uk instead it should fix the issue.

i already bought it and built my site it indexed the sitemap and homepage bu tnot other pages, while i also worked on .co.com and com.co as well this is the first time it happened on .uk.com is there any fix or not?
 
I’ve faced this before.com.uk domains are not officially recognized, so many hosting providers reject them Better go with.co.uk instead.
 
Are you talking about uk.com or com.uk ? Which one?

If it's com.uk , Google doesn't handle it, so use something else.

Thank you for your reply.

Google probably treats any *.uk.com domain as just a subdomain under uk.com.

You don't have to worry if you use a regular tld.

i beleive it too bro but for any doubts any created 2 websites its the same issue so in such case what should we do if google search console says quota exceed even on first URl submission and what should we do in case the only homepage gots indexed and no other urls seemed to getting indexed

Maybe some other domain, for example (test.uk.com, news.uk.com, bhw.uk.com) is consuming the same resource space.

So if you make a request, you will get a fetching limit message.

It's better to wait for it to crawl automatically or change to another tld domain.

aren't sub domains considered saperate why would some other news.uk.com consuiming affect my domains, and im sorry i can't shift to other tld is there a way it can work maybe later after a month or so
 
Might be a domain configuration issue .com.uk often causes indexing or sitemap fetch problems.

First, ensure your site is correctly geotargeted to the UK within Google Search Console, even though the domain extension suggests the location. Second, check your hosting server's IP address location; if it's outside the UK, this can cause conflict with local ranking. Finally, review your local business citations (NAP) to ensure they are consistently pointing to the desired UK business address, as this reinforces local relevance.
 
No, there isn’t an inherent problem with the .com.uk TLD but your issue is likely related to indexing and site setup, not the extension itself.

If your sitemap isn’t being fetched and Google is showing “quota exceeded” when requesting indexing, here are the most common reasons:

✔ Sitemap is not accessible or returns errors
✔ Robots.txt blocking Google
✔ Server using rate limiting or blocking Googlebot
✔ New domains often have crawl limits
✔ Thin or low-value content can also slow indexing
✔ DNS or hosting configuration issues

There’s no widespread issue or penalty with .com.uk domains, so the problem is almost certainly technical configuration or domain trust not the TLD.

If you want faster indexing:
  • Ensure sitemap and robots.txt are correct
  • Use internal linking
  • Add at least a few high-quality links
  • Make sure pages return 200 and load quickly
  • Don’t request indexing repeatedly in a short time
Once Google trusts the site more, indexing quota and crawl rate will improve.
 
Sounds like it could be a temporary issue with Google indexing for that TLD, or your quota limits got hit.
 
It’s likely just a temporary Google crawling or quota glitch double check DNS and sitemap accessibility, then give it some time to normalize.
