Site not indexing correctly
-
I am trying to figure out what is going on with my site listings. Google is only displaying my title and url - no description. You can see it when you search for Franchises for Sale. The site is www.franchisesolutions.com.
Why could this happen? Also I saw a big drop off in a handful of keyword rankings today. Could this be related?
-
OK it looks like your site uis coldfusion, yet your headers suggest it is asp.net
Here is a see a cold fusion page
http://www.franchisesolutions.com...If you look at the cacheed page in google it looks like some sort of trace page used fopr dubuging, it may be that goolge cloweled your site while you were debuging
-
this is even more wired then it seems, as your site is not built with cold fusion it is asp.net running on iis according to your headers
do you have a listing in domoz, as google sometimes uses dmoz info for your snippit.
but then it would be unlikly to have a timespamp of 10 mar 2012
was your site once madein coldfussion? does it have any cfm pages?
-
Do you have any advice as to what I can do about it? It seems to "fix" itself and then default back to what you are seeing (on and off). thanks!!!
-
Something is odd here. When I search for franchises for sale, I'm seeing this as the snippet in the SERP:
ColdFusion Server Standard, 9,0,0,251028. Template, /index.cfm. Time Stamp, 10-Mar-12 10:59 PM. Locale, English (US). User Agent, Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; ...
Maybe there's some issue with crawling?
-
No they are not new. I am seeing very wacky things with the listing in the last few days. Today it is back to normal.
-
Yes, are the pages new?
if could be a indexing probllem if you have changed soming like added a no-index tag or somthing recently
-
So you don't think it is a problem related to keyword ranking drops?
Do you think this is temporary?
-
All comming up fine for me.
Some times they do that for different reasons, but come good

Google Indexed a version of my site w/ MX record subdomain
We're doing a site audit and found "internal" links to a page in search console that appear to be from a subdomain of our site based on our MX record. We use Google Mail internally. The links ultimately redirect to our correct preferred subdomain "www", but I am concerned as to why this is happening and if it can have any negative SEO implications. Example of one of the links: Links aspmx3.googlemail.com.sullivansolarpower.com/about/solar-power-blog/daniel-sullivan/renewable-energy-and-electric-cars-are-not-political-footballs I did a site operator search, site:aspmx3.googlemail.com.sullivansolarpower.com on google and it returns several results.

Google Indexing of Site Map
We recently launched a new site - on June 4th we submitted our site map to google and almost instantly had all 25,000 URL's crawled (yay!). On June 18th, we made some updates to the title & description tags for the majority of pages on our site and added new content to our home page so we submitted a new sitemap. So far the results have been underwhelming and google has indexed a very low number of the updated pages. As a result, only a handful of the new titles and descriptions are showing up on the SERP pages. Any ideas as to why this might be? What are the tricks to having google re-index all of the URLs in a sitemap?

My sites "pages indexed by Google" have gone up more than qten-fold.
Prior to doing a little work cleaning up broken links and keyword stuffing Google only indexed 23/333 pages. I realize it may not be because of the work but now we have around 300/333. My question is is this a big deal? cheers,

Instant Indexing
I've been working on a site for a while now, methodically building content and building trust and authority. Lately I've noticed that anything I publish there appears to be instantly indexed by Google, which surprises me. I haven't had this happen before so I'm curious. I'd be interested to hear the experience of others.
