      I need some help!

      For some reason, each time I update the product meta tags in my Magento website, it doesn't change on the current website?

      Could someone help me understand why that is?

        I'm trying to update the title tags and meta descriptions,

        I'll have to ask my web developer about that but thanks, Everett.

          Hello Kevin,

          Which meta tags are you trying to update?

          Have you had any developers work on the site who may have hard-coded something else into the template instead of the Magento default? For example, maybe your product page Title Tags are based on the product name and the Meta Descriptions use the product description?

                Ummm...

                Check if cache files are actually removed in <magento-directory>/var/cache/. If not then you can manually remove them.</magento-directory>

                    Sorry to heard that.

                    I don't know your technical skills and this would probably sound silly, but did you refresh your browser cache?

                      Hi Daniel,

                      I have done that, but it still hasn't changed 😞

                      But thank you for the suggestion!

                        Hi Kevin,

                        Did you try to refresh Magento cache? Go to System > Cache Management

                        Hope it helps 🙂

                          My website is constantly decreasing

                          loss of ranking

                          For few weeks ago my website is constantly decreasing in search position. I lost keywords and is gooooing down.
                          Although it is well rated on several on page and off page seo verification software that I have tried.
                          I checked Google search console and Analytics and found no major problems. However… from one day to another it keeps going down.
                          I also checked what the main competitors are doing and they are not doing well, at all.
                          The main competitor actually has a creepy website. Totally devoid of onpage or offpage SEO but with an enormous number of backlinks. And of a very bad quality, which should disqualify it, still…
                          Few weeks ago I changed something.
                          In the pages I had H1, 4xH2, no H3 and an H4 without content.
                          An unnatural H tag structure.
                          Now I have H1, H2, H3, 3xH4, with the coherent information.
                          Theoretically, Google should have been “happy” or I’m missing something. I use a SAAS platform.
                          I just found out that they made changes to the keywords (tags).
                          I am selling toner cartridges for printers.
                          So…
                          The tags are printer models and generate a url in which they have the products.
                          Ex. https://www.sertit.ro/cartus-imprimanta-cilindru-color-hp-laserjet-pro-m-177fw goes to the products for that printer model.
                          The question is… should I make tag canonical?
                          Is it possible for products to loose so much in Google search?

                          I am a firm believer in the fundamentals of SEO but is there any data to support its impact positively or negatively towards a sites rank?

                          Is it bad to update product titles and URLs if they are only slightly modified

                          I am doing some house cleaning on the site and made some minor updates to product titles and a rule was written in and it auto updated the URL to what the product title was with a redirect put in place from the old URL. If this a bad thing and should i leave the URL alone and just update the product title? Then for the ones i did change the Product title and the URL was updated is this a bad thing and should i have just left the URL alone? These are all high ranking popular products so dont want to mess with any rankings going into busy season?

                          Duplicate content through product variants

                          Hi, Before you shout at me for not searching - I did and there are indeed lots of threads and articles on this problem. I therefore realise that this problem is not exactly new or unique. The situation: I am dealing with a website that has 1 to N (n being between 1 and 6 so far) variants of a product. There are no dropdown for variants. This is not technically possible short of a complete redesign which is not on the table right now. The product variants are also not linked to each other but share about 99% of content (obvious problem here). In the "search all" they show up individually. Each product-variant is a different page, unconnected in backend as well as frontend. The system is quite limited in what can be added and entered - I may have some opportunity to influence on smaller things such as enabling canonicals. In my opinion, the optimal choice would be to retain one page for each product, the base variant, and then add dropdowns to select extras/other variants. As that is not possible, I feel that the best solution is to canonicalise all versions to one version (either base variant or best-selling product?) and to offer customers a list at each product giving him a direct path to the other variants of the product. I'd be thankful for opinions, advice or showing completely new approaches I have not even thought of! Kind Regards, Nico

                          Removed Product page on our website, what to do

                          We just removed an entire product category on our website, (product pages still exist, but will be removed soon as well) Should we be setting up re-directs, or can we simply delete this category and product 
                          pages and do nothing? We just received this in Google Webmasters tools: Google detected a significant increase in the number of URLs that return a 404 (Page Not Found) error. We have not updated the sitemap yet...Would this be enough to do or should we do more? You can view our website here: http://tinyurl.com/6la8 We removed the entire "Spring Planted Category"

                          This seems silly, but I have errors on blog URLs in our WordPress site that I don't know how to access because they are not in our Dashboard. We are using All in One SEO. The errors are for blog archive dates, authors and just simply 'blog'. Here are samples: http://www.fateyes.com/2012/10/

                          Tags showing up in Google

                          Yesterday a user pointed out to me that Tags were being indexed in Google search results and that was not a good idea. I went into my Yoast settings and checked the "nofollow, index" in my Taxanomies, but when checking the source code for no follow, I found nothing. So instead, I went into the robot.txt and disallowed /tag/ Is that ok? or is that a bad idea? The site is The Tech Block for anyone interested in looking.
