SEO issue
Hello:
I migrated my Blogger site to WordPress and I'm having issues with SEO. Until I migrated, I had it set so that search engines couldn't crawl my site. I changed those instructions with the migration.
Now, my website comes up second in the results for my name, but individual posts don't automatically post. I have to manually add them through Google Webmasters and they show up 12-14 hours later. I have ping enabled and sitemap is recognized, but Google then says it can't crawl the sitemap.
This is getting very stressful and any help anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Ensure your WordPress site's robots.txt file allows search engine crawling and submit your sitemap to Google Search Console. Verify site ownership and optimize permalinks for relevant keywords. Check for duplicate content and improve page load speed for better user experience and search engine ranking. Monitor Google Search Console for crawl errors and indexing issues, addressing them promptly. Consider seeking assistance from SEO experts or forums if problems persist, ensuring your WordPress site maintains optimal visibility and ranking.
Ensure your robots.txt file is correctly configured to allow crawling, verify no-index tags are removed, resubmit your sitemap in Google Search Console, and check for any crawl errors.
Make sure your WordPress site settings allow search engine crawling. Check your robots.txt file to see if you're blocking Google. Please check your sitemap URL in Google Search Console and resubmit. If the issue persists, consider using an SEO plugin like Yoast for optimization and further troubleshooting.
