I doubt it. I don’t think you are talking about the same thing. If it’s the new publisher. You won’t show on the news search

The site is way old. New to google news. And yes its showing in the search.

What’s your site

Yo yo, I know it’s not really relevant, but anyone here owns a old google news approved site ( articles shown in the news section on Google ) for sale?

Hit me up!

Do new sites still not show up?

Can old sites with Google news have the URL changed

Hi,

Can an e-commerce blog be approved for google news

no!
It clearly says news so e-commerce store or any e-commerce blog cant be included in that.
there are certain requirements about the whole design and working of a site.

are you talking about this one? [ XML Sitemap & Google News – WordPress plugin | WordPress.org ]

what about rankmath SEO, is it any good?

dont know about this

The requirement is about a News Sitemap if Rankmath creates a seperate sitemap for News then it would be ok.

I don’t know whether they have it or not. never used it.

Thanks :slight_smile:

@Posad are you still looking for an old google news approved site? I could find one for like 4/5k depending on availability, if you still need one.

they still dont show up,

if you change the url of an old news site you have to reply and thus will be on the new news platform.
Its a sad state unfortunately.
