Why is our page not visible in Google-ranking? www.loseweight.com.
-
using Wordpress as platform. Using the URL gets into the site,- but seems to be non-existent for public... No comments at all, seems to be "invisible"?
-
I searched the name from your profile along with the words lose weight, and I think I found the problem. Are you actually asking about loseweight-longterm.com ? I think we were all looking at the wrong website.
-
Here's what the site loseweight.com looks like in my browser. Did you mis-type the URL perhaps?

WOW! Now I´m really confused! I just went toWordpress,found a Theme ("SWIFT", and have gathered information from different sources which I have (in 2 cases) copied - with permission- and (in 5 cases) transformed as my own articles/information. And from there simply tried to make a structure with Pages and Posts. To be honest; I dont even know exactly what a source code means....
I have absolutely no clue how this can coincide with diet.com!? Possbile to find any explanation??
-
Thanks for the links, - it gave me additional insight - even though I feel a little bit "lost in the jungle" - getting somewhat technicl. And I who thought Wordpress was straightforward!
As I have (when in the startup porcess) put all the 7 Posts into a Page- should i then start that page with the Html: http://www.loseweight.com/canonical-version-of-page/" rel="canonical" />?
-
I wonder if you're seeing something different on your end. When I view that site, I see an exact copy of diet.com, with all of the source code being identical.

Hello, and thanks for your comment. None of the content is duplicated from diet.com.But the site idea is based on accumulating/finding good ideas and tips and gather them for helping people to avoid quick-fix weight-reduction programs, and instead back up by research and good articles.
2 articles are there with the permission of the author, can that be the problem?
Another possible problem: All (7) posts are also put into a Page -and (absloutely unintentionally) duplicated? Can that be the problem?
The site is about 6 months, little has been done last 3-4 months, as we were overwhelmde by spam. Put in a couple weeks ago an anti-spam widget,- and after that ZERO comments, zero recognition! ?
We would be very grateful if you could go to our site (rather small) and see if any evident basic problems?

If I search site:loseweight.com on Google, your site is indexed.
However, your site looks to be a duplicate of diet.com. The search engines generally frown upon duplicate content. If diet.com has been up for a long time and this copy of the site just went up, the search engines will view diet.com as the authoritative source for that content and not view loseweight.com as the authority.
Can you give us a little more background about the site and the duplication with diet.com?

Using the Google Remove URL Tool to remove https pages
I have found a way to get a list of 'some' of my 180,000+ garbage URLs now, and I'm going through the tedious task of using the URL removal tool to put them in one at a time. Between that and my robots.txt file and the URL Parameters, I'm hoping to see some change each week. I have noticed when I put URL's starting with https:// in to the removal tool, it adds the http:// main URL at the front. For example, I add to the removal tool:- https://www.mydomain.com/blah.html?search_garbage_url_addition On the confirmation page, the URL actually shows as:- http://www.mydomain.com/https://www.mydomain.com/blah.html?search_garbage_url_addition I don't want to accidentally remove my main URL or cause problems. Is this the right way this should look? AND PART 2 OF MY QUESTION If you see the search description in Google for a page you want removed that says the following in the SERP results, should I still go to the trouble of putting in the removal request? www.domain.com/url.html?xsearch_... A description for this result is not available because of this site's robots.txt – learn more.

My beta site (beta.website.com) has been inadvertently indexed. Its cached pages are taking traffic away from our real website (website.com). Should I just "NO INDEX" the entire beta site and if so, what's the best way to do this? Please advise.

Google Places Page Changes
We had a client(dentist) hire another marketing firm(without our knowledge) and due to some Google page changes they made, their website lost a #1 ranking, was disassociated with the places page and was placed at result #10 below all the local results. We quickly made some changes and were able to bring them up to #2 within a few days and restore their Google page after about a week, but the tracking/forwarding phone number the marketing company was using shows up on the page despite attempts to contact Google through updating the business in places management as well as submit the phone number as incorrect while providing the correct phone number. And because the client fired that marketing company, the phone number will no longer be active in a few days. Of course this is very important for a dental office. Has anyone else had problems with the speed and updating Google Places/Plus pages for businesses? What's the most efficient way to make changes like this?

Can too many pages hurt crawling and ranking?
Hi, I work for local yellow pages in Belgium, over the last months we introduced a succesfull technique to boost SEO traffic: we have created over 150k of new pages, all targeting specific keywords and all containing unique content, a site architecture to enable google to find these pages through crawling, xml sitemaps, .... All signs (traffic, indexation of xml sitemaps, rankings, ...) are positive. So far so good. We are able to quickly build more unique pages, and I wonder how google will react to this type of "large scale operation": can it hurt crawling and ranking if google notices big volumes of content (unique content)? Please advice

Descriptions missing from rankings associated with Google Place pages.
Can anyone help me figure out why my rankings that are associated with Google Place pages are missing descriptions? I have a number one result for the top searched keyword in my category but it just doesn't look the same without a description and I'm sure it's affecting CTR too.

A rel="canonical" to www.homepage.com/home.aspx Hurts my Rank?
Hello, The CMS that I use makes 3 versions of the homepage:
Technical SEO | | EvolveCreative
www.homepage.com/home.aspx homepage.com homepage.com/default.aspx By default the CMS is set to rel=canonical all versions to the www.homepage.com/home.aspx version. If someone were to link to a website they most likely aren't going to link to www.homepage.com/home.aspx, they'll link to www.homepage.com which makes that link juice flow through the canonical to www.homepage.com/home.aspx right? Why make that extra loop at all? Wouldn't that be splitting the juice? I know 301's loose 1-5 % juice, but not sure about canonical. I assume it works the same way? Thanks! http://yoursiteroot/0
