    Hi there

    I am starting a new website and planning not to let google to crawl the web until i reach a certain number of posts.

    What I need to know is. If i install Rank Math and set it up (without registering with google tools) will Rank Math make posts live on serp?

    Hope I explained it right!

    Thanks

    Hello @eddievet,

    Thank you for contacting the support.

    That is not a recommended way to go about ranking. You should let Google start indexing and ranking your articles as you publish them, not all at once.

    You can click on the following setting to make your entire site NoIndex:

    While we are at it, we highly recommend going through the following guide to set up the plugin completely and correctly:

    Hi and thanks for the fast reply.

    Sorry for the confusion!

    What I intend to do is to create a bunch of contents first before I let google crawl the site. But meanwhile I want to use the RankMath features to be able to optimize the contents/posts so that when I reach the desired amount of posts then I’ll let google do its work.

    What I need is to know how to be able to use the power of RankMath, without pushing all the contents to google.

    At the same time I won’t use google tools (search console, … etc)

    Hope I have clarified it!

    Hello,

    In this case, you can set the “Search engine visibility” option to enabled and this will completely hide your website from the Search Engine.

    You can still use all Rank Math features to optimize your content while your entire website is set to “noindex” and if you are ready to launch your website, you can uncheck the “Search engine visibility” option and Rank Math will be able to set the correct robots meta configuration accordingly.

    Hope that helps.

    P.S. Still not recommended to follow this strategy. Let Google see your site growing every time you publish something new or update.
