    We have had our WooCommerce store running for about a month now and Google has still not indexed many of the pages we built on day one. Our blog posts usually get indexed within a day of posting. I asked Google to crawl the store url last week and nothing has changed yet. Is there a reason Google is not finding these pages?

  • hello
    I have the same problem, did you fix your ?
    if yes can you share your solution?
    regards

    Try installing the Yoast SEO plugin if you don’t already have it. This allows you to check and control what’s included in your sitemap.xml. When you have ensured that your products/product categories/product tags/whatever you want are included in your sitemap, resubmit via Google Search Console (aka Webmaster Tools).

    hi “doubledesign”
    thank you for your replay.
    yes I’ve installed Yoast SEO too.
    Today from webmaster tool I read: 1562 sent url, 381 indexed url.
    Yesterday they were 411/1562.
    really strange… my regular pages and porfolio pages are indexed and i rank really good for some subjects on them.
    Please note this:
    I have some product pages used just as catalog with no ADD TO CART button and no price attribute
    and I have an eshop section with products available for ecommerce buying.

    what can i check? i need to understand the problem in order to fix it.

    regards

    Google is becoming extremely focused to the ‘customer experience’, rewarding sites that give good quality landing pages for the search term that the customer used. Maybe, and it’s just a guess, that because you have no route to purchase you are being marked down aka ignored.

    I’m not familiar with the tool that you are using, but perhaps, if it can tell you, examine which of your pages have been indexed and compare them to those that haven’t.

    That shouldn’t stop them from being indexed ??

    In the SEO tab, go to XML sitemaps.
    Under “Post types”, ensure Products are set to “In sitemap”
    Under “Taxonomies”, ensure Product Categories are set to “In sitemap”

    Then go to yoursite.com/sitemap.xml
    Inside that you should have product-sitemap.xml and product_cat-sitemap.xml.

    If you had to change any settings to get to here(e.g. you had to set products or product categories to “in sitemap” because they weren’t already), resubmit your sitemap.xml to Google through Search Console.

    If you only submitted recently, or only added the shop recently, it might just take some time for it all to get indexed ??
