No metadata rendering
-
For some reason, my spiders can't see a client's metadata even though I can see it in the source code. Any reason why that would happen?
-
In Webmaster Tools, go to Crawl > Fetch as Google and fetch a page on your site. What response code and HTML does the spider see?
-
I think it may be a server-side error. I think there's a rule written into the server coding that's causing spiders to read things wrong. The Client is having issues with redirects, as well. Their 301s are turning into 302s.
The robots.txt file is fine and it's coded properly. Unfortunately, due to confidentiality reasons, I can't share the link.

As Oleg said -
Please check the following
-
Robots.txt file -- may be they are not letting your spider access the pages
-
Please check whether you are meta tags are correct
It would help if you can post your meta tags here

robots are blocked or its coded wrong. Those are pretty much your only reasons.
Perhaps you can provide a link for us to check out?

Is This a Misuse of Structured Data (JSON Recipe Tag on Collection Pages)?
I've noticed that many food blogs use the "recipe" tag to rank collection pages in carousels. For example, for the search term "Zucchini Recipe," Gaumenfreundin is in the first position in the carousel with a page that contains multiple recipes. This makes sense if the user intent is plural (e.g., "recipes") - but in the singular? According to Google's guidelines, the recipe tag is intended for individual recipes. Google even states that it is a misuse if only the ingredients are listed without the steps. So, isn't it against the guidelines to tag a collection page (even additionally) with the recipe tag? This practice is already common in the US market. Is Google aware of this and possibly tolerating it because it sometimes makes sense to present multiple recipes to the user? For example, "Zucchini Recipe" - the user might not yet know exactly what they want to cook with zucchini. Or do you think Google will take action against this practice in the future?

Eliminate render-blocking CSS in above the fold content with shopify
Hello, It seems that my shopify website needs to eliminate render-blocking CSS in above the fold content to get better mobile speed and I don't see or find anything about how this could be done. I have succeeded with a wordpress site but the way things are restricted with shopify, I have not been able to do the same. The other thing would be to leverage browser caching which I have no clue how it can be done with shopify either. Thanks!

Easy way to import metadata into Drupal 7?
We have to update the metadata for a drupal 7 website. We've already written them all out, and know exactly what URL they should go to. But I don't want to waste the client's money by spending any more time than is necessary on uploading the information to the site. Is there a way to upload the information that isn't manual?

Meta descriptions
Whats the deal with the date at the start of the meta descriptions? I have not really looked into this but I'm guessing its a blog thing? Take this search http://www.google.co.uk/search?aq=f&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=6packproject#hl=en&xhr=t&q=interview+with+paul+knight&cp=26&pf=p&sclient=psy&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=interview+with+paul+knight&pbx=1&fp=835cd241c8d51fff The beautifully crafted meta description is now being cut short even though its within the character limit and is now only showing 36 characters! Is there a way to remove this? Thanks in advance
