Hi Richard,
I don't think that searching your exact site URL is a good statement when asking for your indexing status.
In your case, I'd go to search console and check the queries that the site is ranking in wich country.
Remember that each site must be configured by their own in Search Console. (I understand that you've already done that).and in a more accurate way, search for any keyword, that you are ranking with both sites, in both google.nl and google.be
Hope it helps.

thanks, i will change that also, yes i tried also and ok
https://www.google.com/#q=site:lavistarelatiegeschenken.nl
https://www.google.com/#q=site:lavistarelatiegeschenken.be
but if you click on www.google.nl.... http://www.lavistarelatiegeschenken.nl you will see he ranks the homepage of belgium (.be) website and not index homepage of netherlands (.nl), for the netherlands first page rank is a subpage
I also did geo targeting in google webmaster tools and this tag rel=”alternate” hreflang=”x”to avoid double content
Thats strange ? I dont understand
With other sites i never had the same problem with same websites in 2 countries same language, first time.
I deleted some toxic link and after that its changed, now google sees belgium at the most important, i add the links again so than i hope its solved.
I think geo targeting and that tag works, but only not with homepage, so solution is to make both sites unique so, google will see it as two undependent websites. No social media connections and backlinks to each other, that must be help. Two different websites

Hi Richard,
Yes it is indexed.
Check it out here: https://www.google.com/#q=site:lavistarelatiegeschenken.nlAlso, you have over 30.000 pages indexed, are all those yours? Also, there is no sitemap. The URL declared in the robots.txt does not work
Hope it helps.
GR.

Discovered - currently not indexed issue
Hello all, We have a sitemap with URLs that have mostly user generated content. Profile Overview section. Where users write about their services and some other things. Out of 46K URLs, only 14K are valid according to search console and 32K URLs are excluded. Out of these 32K, 28K are "Discovered - currently not indexed". We can't really update these pages as they have user generated content. However we do want to leverage all these pages to help us in our SEO. So the question is how do we make all of these pages indexable? If anyone can help in the regard, please let me know. Thanks!

Pages not indexed
Hey everyone Despite doing the necessary checks, we have this problem that only a part of the sitemap is indexed.
Technical SEO | | conversal
We don't understand why this indexation doesn't want to take place. The major problem is that only a part of the sitemap is indexed. For a client we have several projects on the website with several subpages, but only a few of these subpages are indexed. Each project has 5 to 6 subpages. They all should be indexed. Project: https://www.brody.be/nl/nieuwbouwprojecten/nieuwbouw-eeklo/te-koop-eeklo/ Mainly subelements of the page are indexed: https://www.google.be/search?source=hp&ei=gZT1Wv2ANouX6ASC5K-4Bw&q=site%3Abrody.be%2Fnl%2Fnieuwbouwprojecten%2Fnieuwbouw-eeklo%2F&oq=site%3Abrody.be%2Fnl%2Fnieuwbouwprojecten%2Fnieuwbouw-eeklo%2F&gs_l=psy-ab.3...30.11088.0.11726.16.13.1.0.0.0.170.1112.8j3.11.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..4.6.693.0..0j0i131k1.0.p6DjqM3iJY0 Do you have any idea what is going wrong here?
Thanks for your advice! Frederik

Bing indexing at a tiny fraction of Google
I've read through other posts about this but I can't find a solution that works for us. My site is porch.com, 1M+ pages indexed on Google, ~10k on Bing. I've submitted the same sitemaps, and there's nothing different for each bot in our robots file. It looks like Bing is more concerned with our 500 errors than Google, but not sure if that might be causing the issue. Can anyone point me to the right things to be researching/investigating? Fixing errors, sitemap crawling issues, etc. I'm not sure what to spend my time looking into...

No index on subdomains
Hi, We have a subdomain that is appearing in the search results - I want to hide this as it looks really bad. If I were to add the no index tag to the sub domain would URL would this affect the whole domain or just that sub domain? The main domain is vitally important - it is just that sub domain I need to hide. Many thanks

No index directory pages?
All, I have a site built on WordPress with directory software (edirectory) on the backend that houses a directory of members. The Wordpress portion of the site is full of content and drives traffic through to the directory. Like most directories, the results pages are thin on content and mainly contain links to member profiles. Is it best to simply no index the search results for the directory portion of the site?
