Pages not indexable?
-
Hello,
I've been trying to find out why Google Search Console finds these pages non-indexable:
https://www.visitflorida.com/en-us/eat-drink.html
https://www.visitflorida.com/en-us/florida-beaches/beach-finder.html
Moz and SEMrush both crawl the pages and show no errors but GSC comes back with, "blocked by robots.txt" but I've confirmed it is not.
Anyone have any thoughts?

Hello please also guide me about my website pages are not indexing too.
-
Hi, I am also facing a similar issue. Do let me know as well if you find out any helpful guide.

Thanks, Mazen.
robots.txt tester doesn't show that these URL's are blocked but I still get the error upon submitting the URL. I also see that Google has indexed them at some point, yes. Thanks for that. The dev. team is reviewing further for any issues.

Hi Specscart,
I think if your assessment was correct the entire site would not be indexed as it all falls under /en-us/.

Hi Ken,
Running a quick "site:" query on both URLs, I can see that they are indexed.
You can use the robots.txt tester from the Old Search Console interface and comment out the lines that could be contributing to the block.
In all cases, the pages are sitting in the index as of this writing.

Hi I have found issue with robots.txt.
User-agent: *
Allow: /
Disallow: /content/lookup
Disallow: /en-us/deals/* Disallow: /content/visitflorida/en-us/deals/* Sitemap: https://www.visitflorida.com/sitemap.xml Do some change in robots.txt file.This issue will be corrected.
Disallow: /en-us/deals/* (you wanted to disallow deals page. but google will cosider disallow page started with /en-us )
Mention only Disallow: /deals/*
If you will correct this thing. this issue will be resolve.

Over 40+ pages have been removed from the indexed and this page has been selected as the google preferred canonical.
Over 40+ pages have been removed from the indexed and this page has been selected as the google preferred canonical. https://studyplaces.com/about-us/ The pages affected by this include: https://studyplaces.com/50-best-college-party-songs-of-all-time-and-why-we-love-them/ https://studyplaces.com/15-best-minors-for-business-majors/ As you can see the content on these pages is totally unrelated to the content on the about-us page. Any ideas why this is happening and how to resolve.

Can a page that's 301 redirected get indexed / show in search results?
Hey folks, have searched around and haven't been able to find an answer to this question. I've got a client who has very different search results when including his middle initial. His bio page on his company's website has the slug /people/john-smith; I'm wondering if we set up a duplicate bio page with his middle initial (e.g. /people/john-b-smith) and then 301 redirect it to the existent bio page, whether the latter page would get indexed by google and show in search results for queries that use the middle initial (e.g. "john b smith"). I've already got the metadata based on the middle initial version but I know the slug is a ranking signal and since it's a direct match to one of his higher volume branded queries I thought it might help to get his bio page ranking more highly. Would that work or does the 301'd page effectively cease to exist in Google's eyes?

Getting Pages Indexed That Are Not In The Main Navigation
Hi All, Hoping you can help me out with a couple of questions I have. I am looking to create SEO friendly landing pages optimized for long tail keywords to increase site traffic and conversions. These pages will not live on the main navigation. I am wondering what the best way to get these pages indexed is? Internal text linking, adding to the sitemap? What have you done in this situation? I know that these pages cannot be orphaned pages and they need to be linked to somewhere. Looking for some tips to do this properly and to ensure that they can become indexed. Thanks! Pat
