    Good Morning!
    I’m having trouble indexing my site on google. I think this is due to Yoast. The inspection of the URL says that the site was excluded by the “noindex” tag, or rather, that the “noindex” tag was detected in the “robots” meta tag. This tag has already been changed to “index in the page’s source code, but it still continues without blocking the site’s indexing. So, I think this comes from robots at Yoast. I saw in the Yoast tools that the robots.txt content is:
    User-agent: *
    Disallow: /wp-admin/
    Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php

    What change should I make to index my site?

    Hello @lucilafreire,

    Thanks for reaching out!

    We are unsure why you think the site is not indexed. We viewed the site and it’s being followed and indexed by search engines:

    <meta name=”robots” content=”index, follow” />

    We also performed a site search and your site is coming up in search results here

    Also, your robots.txt file matches what we usually recommend; there is no noindex tag in it. It will be helpful if you can share with us why you think the site is not indexed.

    Thank you.

    The google search console reported that the URL is not on google. See through this link: https://prnt.sc/u7h5k3

    My site is not indexed. If it were, when looking for the name, it would appear. You put the entire URL to appear.

    @lucilafreire Using the search query of site:sustentabilidadenoar.com.brrestricts the search to only includes pages on that site that are in Google’s index, so the site is definitely indexed.

    As for the warning related to the ‘noindex’ tag, we checked both the page’s source code, your site’s robots.txt file, and also check the page with Curl and there were no ‘noindex’ tags found.

    To resolve this, we would then next recommend checking the page in Google Search Console using the URL Inspection Tool.

    To check whether the sitemap can be indexed using the URL Inspection Tool in Google Search Console you would need to perform the following steps:

      ? Click on ‘URL Inspection’ in the left hand menu
      ? Enter the URL of page in the entry field
      ? Click the ‘Test Live URL’ button
      ? After the Live Test is complete, check the ‘Availability’ status for information on whether Google see’s the page as able to be indexed.
      ? You can also click the ‘Request Indexing’ link to request that Google re-crawl and index the page.

    We also we have a guide on using the URL Inspection Tool feature here: https://kb.yoast.com/kb/fetch-as-googlebot/
