Cache Not Working on Our Site
-
We redesigned our site (www.motivators.com) back in April. Ever since then, we can't view the cache. It loads as a blank, white page but the cache text is at the top saying:
"This is Google's cache of http://www.motivators.com/. It is a snapshot of the page as it appeared on Jul 22, 2013 15:50:40 GMT. The current page could have changed in the meantime. Learn more. Tip: To quickly find your search term on this page, press Ctrl+F or ⌘-F (Mac) and use the find bar."
Has anyone else ever seen this happen? Any ideas as to why it's happening? Could it be hurting us? Advice, tips, suggestions would be very much appreciated!

You are more than welcome mask it to solve your problem? Because it does not seem to me that the problem is with your cash it seems to me that the problem is with to many calls on the DNS and the site structure do you want to talk to me about this I can tell you I know quite a bit about site speed

Thank you, Bereijk and Thomas, for your responses!

to give you a short answer a content delivery network will help with caching quite a bit.
Implement max CDN your site will not be perfect, but you will not have to worry about a cache problem.
However the problems with your site run much deeper than what you're questioning suggest is the issue.
Honestly you need to clean up the code quite a bit.
However using a CDN even cloud flare a free CDN would help your site dramatically.
Sincerely,
Thomas

Dallas you have an extremely slow loading website
Page size
2.7MB
Load time
9.99s
Requests
195
I honestly rarely see a page that has almost 200 requests this is not a good thing especially considering you're not using a quality DNS company use DynECT or if you think Dyn is a lot to spend uses DNS Made Easy
I have never heard of your hosting company
You are using http://www.webair.com/
so I cannot tell you if it is good or bad I would move to a company that I trust however I know nothing of your hosting company so it could be good I just don't know it check out fire host they will have everything you need including DNS and content delivery networks but the real issue is your front end the code is extremely bad there's a lot of JavaScript getting in the way of everything I would recommend moving to media Temple and using their DV server with cloudflare's railgun it is free media Temple hosting accounts and I strongly advise you do not use their GS server it is garbage
You have a google page speed of 82/100
The page Promotional Products and Promotional ... got an overall PageSpeed Score of 82 (out of 100).Learn more

Because cloudflare's railgun rewrites your code for you this could help you immensely but you really need to hire a web developer and have your site code fixed to have the best possible outcome I can recommend firsthand using
He can fix your site

I would add a content delivery network Max CDN is a inexpensive and very easy to implement CDN along with being one of the few that offer support at such a inexpensive price.
I hope this was of help,

The homepage takes more than 9 seconds to load, I can imagine that the crawler of Google hasn't taken the time create a snapshot of the page... I would try to speed up the website first... much better for user experience and also for rankings.
Check this report: http://www.webpagetest.org/result/130722_RJ_13WT/ and this one: http://www.webpagetest.org/result/130722_3R_143F/
Check this site about speed: http://www.strangeloopnetworks.com/web-performance-infographics/.
Not sure if that is the solution, but I would start fixing the speed issue rather than worrying about the Google Cache Pages...

Site dropped from SERP
Hello, I've been ranking a site for the last 5 months with good success, ranking on the first page for a high traffic keyword. In the beginning of September however, my site completely dropped out of the SERPs for several of those keywords yet my site was still indexed and there was no penalty applied to my site via search console. I would assume this maybe because of the update during the time.My site came back again a week later and it was ranking much higher on the first page (#2). Today, I just checked the SERPs and my site is now gone again. It was there this morning but now as of two hours ago it is gone, as well as one of my main competitors. My site is still indexed and no penalties via search console. Does anyone know what causes these types of issues? Im assuming my site will come back in a week or so with hopefully the same or better ranking, but when I have disruptions like this it really hurts my organic traffic. Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

Representing categories on my site
My site serves a consumer-focused industry that has about 15-20 well recognized categories, which act as a pretty obvious way to segment our content. Each category supports it's own page (with some useful content) and a series of articles relevant to that category. In short, the categories are pretty focal to what we do. I am moving from DNN to WordPress as my CMS/blog. I am taking the opportunity to review and fix SEO-related issues as I migrate. One such area is my URL structure. On my existing site (on DNN), I have the following types of pages for each topic: / <topic>- this is essentially the landing page for the topic and links to articles</topic> /<topic>/articles/ <article-name>- topics have 3-15 articles with this URL structure</article-name></topic> With WordPress, I am considering moving to articles being under the root. So, an article on (making this up) how to make a widget would be under /how-to-make-a-widget, instead of /<widgets>/article/how-to-make-a-widget I will be using WordPress categories to reflect the topics taxonomy, so I can flag my articles using standard WordPress concepts.</widgets> Anyway, I'm trying to get my head around whether it makes sense to "flatten" my URL structure such that the URLs for each article no longer include the topic (the article page will link to the topic page though). Thoughts?

Site maintenance and crawling
Hey all, Rarely, but sometimes we require to take down our site for server maintenance, upgrades or various other system/network reasons. More often than not these downtimes are avoidable and we can redirect or eliminate the client side downtime. We have a 'down for maintenance - be back soon' page that is client facing. ANd outages are often no more than an hour tops. My question is, if the site is crawled by Bing/Google at the time of site being down, what is the best way of ensuring the indexed links are not refreshed with this maintenance content? (ie: this is what the pages look like now, so this is what the SE will index). I was thinking that add a no crawl to the robots.txt for the period of downtime and remove it once back up, but will this potentially affect results as well?

Is my non-www domain working
I believe we may have an issue with out domains and links which is causing our seo to suffer. As far as I'm aware, our non-www domain is being treated as a different domain name. Open Site explorer returns different information for each one. However, when I go to the non-www domain in my browser (I have to force it using the http as otherwise the browser auto inserts the www) my browser returns a page cannot be found. But there may be a chance this is actually an issue with the server we access the internet via at work. I need to establish 100% beyond all doubt that our non-www domain is not working. This is the www: http://www.jetbookingdirect.com/ This is the non-www: http://jetbookingdirect.com/ If it is definitely not working, is the right thing to do to ask my web host to setup a 301 redirect? Further, I thought redirects could only point to one address. If we 301 redirect, if someone accesses a specific page via the non-www domain, does it then take them to the correct page? Also, is it safe to say that our non-www domain not working has affected our SEO, and if we fix it, will it improve things for us? Thank you so much for clarification on this issue.
