Google Console doesn’t index sitemap
-
GSC said the sitemap.html was Submitted URL marked ‘noindex’. So I installed better robots.txt hoping that would index the sitemap.html but I still get the same issue.
I have Yoast installed but that didn’t seem to submit a robots.txt hence installing BR.txt although BR.txt says the Yoast robots.txt is running.

Hello Hadders,
Thank you for contacting us …
What I can see is that you did not use the appropriate sitemap. Your sitemap is currently: https://bayarearoofingcompanies.com/sitemap_index.xml (generated by Yoast SEO plugin) and not https://bayarearoofingcompanies.com/sitemap.html.
Also, when I look at your robots.txt (https://bayarearoofingcompanies.com/robots.txt), I can see 2 major problems
First: you did not use the right sitemap url
Second: you did not add it properly(I’m taking about this line: Allow: /https://bayarearoofingcompanies.com/sitemap.html)
The best way to add your sitemap URL to your robots.txt is :
sitemap: https://bayarearoofingcompanies.com/sitemap_index.xml
So, make sure to delete this line : Allow: /https://bayarearoofingcompanies.com/sitemap.html and paste this line instead: sitemap: https://bayarearoofingcompanies.com/sitemap_index.xml

Hope this help.
