      We did a new site launch on Feb 7th this year - www.vesternet.com

      It changed from Magento 1 to Magento 2.  We had some launch issues around SEO but now we've solved most every crawler issue in Moz reporting - according to Moz we're in better shape on-site than ever.

      But our organic search is just dropping daily - we expected a drop after launch then back to normal, but over 2 months on something just isn't right.

      A good example, on Google UK for keyword 'home automation' we've always been about position 10, but now we're out the top 50...

      Forget about off site for now - what's wrong with our site itself to have caused this?

      Can anyone help with insights please as this is killing our sales

        Hi,

        We're dealing with the same problem after our Magento migration. Did you find out what caused the organic drop?

        Looking forward to hear from you 🙂

          Hi dbsmtec,

          It'll be tough for anyone to tell you without auditing your particular website what's likely up here.

          If you have seen a gradual drop, there could be a confounding factor afoot - UX issues, for example, are often behind otherwise unexplained organic traffic trends. Page speed is sometimes an issue with Magento - was there any negative impact on performance in the upgrade?

          If the drop has been site-wide and gradual, I'd suspect it's something related to UX/user interactions that is causing the drop. If it was sudden, it's more likely (but not necessarily) a technical issue. Looking at traffic across page types can sometimes help narrow your scope.

          Again, it's tough to say without looking at your particular site and performance data, and even then, I'm afraid, the answer may prove elusive.

          Best of Luck,
          Mike

            It may be that the migration has not been done correctly. Magneto took out a pdf with instructions for successful migration. Have you done this or have you used another manual?

            I leave the link with the pdf. I hope I've helped.

              How do I fix my portfolio causing duplicate content issues?

              Hi, Im new to this whole duplicate content issue. I have a website, fatcatpaperie.com that I use the portofolio feature in Wordpress as my gallery for all my wedding invitations.  I have a ton of duplicate content issues from this. I don't understand at all how to fix this. I'd appreciate any help! Below is an example of one duplicate content issue. They have slightly different names, different urls, different images and all have no text. But are coming up as duplicates. Would it be as easy as putting a different metadescription for each?? Thanks for the help!

              301 Redirect to external site

              Hi guys, We have a client who is getting their website redesigned through us. They are discontinuing couple of their services which will not get featured in the new site. They are fairly well ranked for these services and my client wishes to 301 redirect these pages to an external site owned by his friend so that they benefit out of the ranking. The question is: Will my client's website's general ranking get affected due to 301 redirecting to an external site? The external site is not spammy or red-flagged by Google (at the moment, at least). Thanks in advance!

              Trying to SEO a site that used Header Tags for Design

              I am trying to SEO a website that was built years ago and uses Header tags for design.  The site must have 25 and tags used for design purpose. Is there any way to work around this problem?  Perhaps a code that tells Google to ignore these as Headers?  The web designers say that they are looking to fix the problem sometime this summer but you never know if that means it a month away or years away.  I really want to help this website but I believe that the Header tags are one of the reasons that his site does not show in the top 100  rankings for any keywords.  Any help would be great. www.wallybuysell.com Chris.K

              Moving a site from .cfm to Wordpress - How to keep the authority?

              Hi guys, My client has a site built with Cold Fusion (web pages end in .cfm) and we're moving them over to Wordpress (for many reasons), keeping the same menu structure and navigation. Their previous SEO company was pretty awful, however, they did manage to establish some decent authority/backlinks for the website and its 20 or so pages. My questions: I assume I'll want to do 301 redirects for each page, possibly by editing the .htaccess file?  Any advice on this? Anything else I need to consider in this move? Thanks!

              Best Domain Name for Life Coaching Site

              Hello, I am an NLP health coach. I am starting to work with both life threatening illnesses and minor diagnoses. NLP is a type of personal development. I'm wondering what your opinion of the best domain would be, keeping in mind branding, SEO, and usability/rememberability. The term "NLP" is not well known. I will be doing both phone coaching and in-person coaching. My other website (BobWeikel.com) is not very strong because of the lack of keywords in the domain, but it's easy to remember. Options are: NLPTrained.com BobWeikelHealthCoach.com BoiseHealthCoach.com (I'm in Boise Idaho) RobertWeikel.com or whatever you suggest.
