Showing up in Bing and Yahoo, but not Google? - Spa Spot
-
Spa Spot Edmonton is a Client of ours and while it seems that they are performing very well in Bing and Yahoo search engines, the same can't be said about Google. 9 or 10 keywords are on the 1st page with another 9 or 10 on the second pages of Bing and Yahoo, whereas Google is only ranking 3 keywords and the rest do not show up even in the Top 50.
Any ideas?

Private network - essentially if you own all those sites that are linking to you, all using the same template, etc. that's potentially very bad. Especially when done the way you've done it.
If you're using an SEO agency who is building links from sites like hottubgalaxy (dotcom) for you, they're doing a very poor job of hiding their intent. If you are doing this yourself, stop it.
You obviously know a little about SEO given your exact anchor text link to start your question ... but even that, here on Moz, is kind of suspect in most cases. You could just give us the URL.

What is PN?
-
Bing and Yahoo rely more on on-page content for new sites than they do backlinks. Google prefers a good solid base of people linking to you most of the time.
According to Ahrefs you have 53 backlinks from 21 domains. 3 of these domains (and 12 links) are from Edmonton home & garden shows (ie. all the same people). Only 13 of these links are dofollow links and 40 are nofollow - a very strong ratio against you.
You also have pages that don't land in the same place they used to. You have links to /poker-tables/ but that redirects to /game-rooms/#poker-tables
Your Ahrefs anchor text shows about 48% of your referring domains link to the site using the word "hot" and 33% "tubs"
The backlinks you do have from sites like Hot Tub Galaxy, Hot Tubs for All, Just Cat Fishing, etc. are all extremely suspect and look like blatant spam to me.
I would suggest that the better question to ask would be: "why would Google rank this site at all?" At the moment, nothing off-site suggest they should. Sorry for the bad news. (Btw. if that's your PN, that's not how you do a PN.)

Any idea why Google Search Console stopped showing "Internal Links" and "Links to your site"
Our default eCommerce property (https://www.pure-elegance.com) used to show several dozen External Links and several thousand Internal Links on Google Search Console. As of this Friday both those links are showing "No Data Available". I checked other related properties (https://pure-elegance.com, http:pure-elegance.com and http://www.pure-elegance.com) and all of them are showing the same. Our other statistics (like Search Analytics etc.) remain unchanged. Any idea what might have caused this and how to resolve this?

Missing Google verification
I just went to check my client sites in Google search console and noticed a whole bunch of them no longer 'verified'. They were all previously verified. Why would they suddenly change status to 'not verified'? Does this affect anything (eg. search analytics data flowing through to GA)? Does this mean I have to verify all over again?

Will Google View Using Google Translate As Duplicate?
If I have a page in English, which exist on 100 other websites, we have a case where my website has duplicate content. What if I use Google Translate to translate the page from English to Japanese, as the only website doing this translation will my page get credit for producing original content? Or, will Google view my page as duplicate content, because Google can tell it is translated from an original English page, which runs on 100+ different websites, since Google Translate is Google's own software?
