I have all my posts optimized for the past 18 months, and that’s why I ask this question. After working so hard optimizing each article very well, Google just chooses archive pages that have insufficient information on the actual new stories. The result is a lower and rare ranking for my keywords. I even tried to de-index the categories and tags, but all in vain. Instead, Google now picks the dilute details from homepage archives. This is so weird as my articles have been ranking in 48 hours nicely with featured images.
Also Note: RankMath shows N/A for the SEO score of other posts after transfer from Yoast yet, the opening individual post shows the accurate score. You should fix this bug too
