Moz/Google does not recognize text on Wix website
-
My client's website was built on Wix and despite having substantial content on web pages, Moz is claiming that there is very little-to-no content: Sufficient Characters/Words in Content.
Does anyone know how to fix this issue? I've run a word count tool and it gives the same results.

Sorry, I must not have been clear. The site/page has words - one of the first paragraphs has 92 words and 472 characters without spaces, so that isn't the issue.
The issue is that Moz/Google cannot see the text - they think the page has no words on it.

Hard to say without seeing the website. I would recommend having 500+ words on any page you want to rank on Google (may have to have more depending on competition). Sometimes there can be a misreading if you have written content with a widget that displays on a page vs having it directly on the specific page's content.
It is also important to remember that while the content length is important, I would argue content quality and content depth should be more of a focus. Check out this recent Moz post- https://moz.com/blog/influence-googles-ranking-factor.

Google Not Picking Up Posts
I am trying to work out why from March 4th Google is not seeing my posts. Our google impressions have dropped from 8,000 to 40. If you put in the full article name with speach marks it does not find it, and instead shows the home page in google. We have not had any warnings. We did have work done on our site but nothing else i could think of to cause this. Can anyone let me know what may have caused this. All articles are original

Does Google add parameters to the URL parameters in webmaster tools/
I am seeing new parameters added (and sometimes removed) from the URL Parameter tool. Is there anything that would add parameters to the tool? Or does it have to be someone internally? FYI - They always have no date in the configured column, no effect set, and crawl is set to Let Google decide.

A/B testing entire website VS Seo issues
I'm familar with A/B testing variations of a page but I'd like to A/B test a new designs version of a e-commerce site. I´m wondering about the best way to test with SEO concerns... this is what I´ve in mind right now, any suggestion? Use parameters to make version B different from A version. Redirect 50% of the users with 302 ( or javascript would be a better way?) Use noindex in the B pages. Use rel=canonical in the B pages pointing to A version. In the end use 301 redirect to all B pages to A urls. PS: We can´t use subdomain and i don´t wanna use robots.txt file to protect the new design from competitors. I´d love any suggestions and tips about it - thanks folks 🙂

How to attach at text to image that other websites use from my website
I often have other websites link to my website. They will do this with an image that they pull off of my website. (actually my website continues to serve the image). These inbound links are great, but they don't have alt text. Is there a way for me to attach alt text to the images, or is this something the other website needs to code themselves?
