I recently faced a major issue while launching my website built with Figma Make. My site was live, but Google wasn’t indexing any pages — and it took me quite some time to figure out why.

 

Here’s what happened and how I fixed it 👇

 

❌ Problem 1: sitemap.xml & robots.txt not working

After publishing, both URLs were showing “Not Found”.

I tried multiple fixes inside Figma but nothing worked.

 

✅ Solution:

I used Cloudflare Workers to host these files properly.

 

- Connected my domain via DNS (Hostinger → Cloudflare)

- Deployed sitemap.xml & robots.txt through Cloudflare

- URLs started working perfectly

 

---

 

❌ Problem 2: Pages not indexing (Noindex issue)

Even after fixing sitemap, Google Search Console showed “Excluded by noindex”

 

😵 This was frustrating because everything else looked correct.

 

---

 

✅ Final Root Cause (Most Important)

In Figma Make settings, I had enabled:

 

👉 “Exclude from search engine results”

 

This means:

 

«Figma was explicitly telling Google NOT to index my website»

 

---

 

💡 Final Fix:

 

- Turn OFF that setting

- Re-submit sitemap in GSC

- Request indexing again

 

✔️ Result: My website is now getting indexed successfully 🎉

 

---

 

🔥 Lesson Learned:

Sometimes the issue is not in code or setup —

it’s just one hidden setting blocking everything.

 

---

 

If you're using Figma Make and facing indexing issues,

👉 CHECK THIS SETTING FIRST.

 

Hope this saves someone hours of struggle 🙌

Easy fix, that most people would miss.
