My blog homepage deindexed, other pages indexing, still traffic not changed.
-
Hello!
Today when I check my blog site search on Google, I can't see my blog home page. Though all my posts and pages are still on the Google results. Today I published a test post, then it also indexed by the Google less than 3 minutes. Still I can't see any traffic changes.
10th of April (yesterday) when I perform a site search (site:mydomain.com), I saw my site on the Google search result.
Today I installed the Ulitmate SEO plug-in and deactivated WordPress SEO plug-in. After a few hours I saw this issue. (I'm not saying this is the issue, I just mentioned it). In addition to that I never used any black hat SEO methods to improve my ranking.
my site:- http://goo.gl/6mvQT
Any help really appreciate!

Thank you so much Chris Menke, now my home page again indexed by the Google. You are the best!

Now I have deactivated and uninstalled that plug-in. After that I clear cache (W3 total and Cloudflare) and fetch as Google bot (on Google webmaster tools). Now I'm waiting for any changes. Hope if this is the issue, it will fix next few days.
Still my blog posts are getting indexed within 3 minutes. Still no traffic changes. It's a weird issue.

I suspect the JS is preventing all crawlers from viewing your content. It's likely Google has only indexed your homepage since you installed that plugin and that's why it's not visible in there results. if you left the plugin installed, all of your pages would probably loose visibility, as it seems has already happened with Bing.
Leave your plugin uninstalled for a few weeks and see if the pages don't start showing again in the search results.

I guess this is my site issue. Today I check my site on Yahoo and Bing. I can't find my site on those search engines (earlier those sites shows my site). Can you please tell me what's going on there?

Thank you Chris your reply.
I use that plug-in, because some blogger copy paste my blog post. Therefore I use "WP Content Copy Protection" plug-in. After I installed that plug-in, my visitors need to enable Java script to visit my site.
I'll try to disable that plug-in.

It seems you need to have your JS turned on in order to view the site. I don't think that's a very good idea. Is this a new "feature" on your site?

Category URL Pagination where URLs don't change between pages
Hello, I am working on an e-commerce site where there are categories with multiple pages. In order to avoid pagination issues I was thinking of using rel=next and rel=prev and cannonical tags. I noticed a site where the URL doesn't change between pages, so whether you're on page 1,2, or 3 of the same category, the URL doesn't change. Would this be a cleaner way of dealing with pagination?

Home Page Blog Snippets - Duplicate Content Help?
Afternoon Folks- I have been asked to contribute to a new site that has a blogfeed prominently displayed on the home page. It's laid out like this: Logo | Menu HOME PAGE SLIDER Blog 1 Title about 100 words of blog 1 Text Blog 2 Title about 100 words of blog 2 Text Blog 3 Title about 100 words of blog 3 Text Footer: -- This seems like an obvious duplicate content situation but also a way I have seen a lot of blogs laid out. (I.E. With blog content snippets being a significant portion of the home page content) I want the blogs to rank and I want the home page to rank, so I don't feel like a rel canonical on the blog post's is the correct option unless I have misunderstood their purpose. Anyone have any ideas or know how this is usually handled?

Should you change Temporary redirects 302's to a 301 even if page is not important/intended for ranking ?
Hi Whilst i appreciate its best practice to 301 redirect permanently moved pages, what if the page is say a login page or other page you not really interested in ranking or transferring juice to ? is it still important/best practice to do so simply because the page has permanently moved hence should still be a 301 even though you don't really want it to rank ? cheers dan

Duplicate index.php/webpage pages on website. Help needed!
Hi Guys, Having a really frustrating problem with our website. It is a Joomla 1.7 site and we have some duplicate page issues. What is happening is that we have a webpage, lets say domain.com/webpage1 and then we also have domain.com/index.php/webpage1. Google is seeing these as duplicate pages and is causing me some real SEO problems. I have tried setting up a 301 redirect but it wn't let me redirect /index.php/webpage1 to /webpage1. Anyone have any ideas or plugins that can be used to sort this out? Any help will be really appreciated! Matt.
