Crawl at a stand still
-
Hello Moz'ers,
More questions about my Shopify migration...it seems that I'm not getting indexed very quickly (it's been over a month since I completed the migration) - I have done the following:
- used an Seo app to find and complete redirects (right away)
- used the same app to straighten out title tags, metas and alt tags
- submitted the sitemap
- re-submitted my main product URL's via Fetch
- checked the Console - no reported blocks or crawl errors
I will mention that I had to assign my blog to a sub-domain because Shopify's blog platform is awful. I had a lot of 404's on the blog, but fixed those. The blog was not a big source of traffic (I'm an ecomm business) Also, I didn't have a lot of backlinks, and most of those came along anyway.
I did have a number of 8XX and 9XX errors, but I spoke to Shopify about them and they found no issues. In the meantime, those issues pretty much disappeared in the MOZ reporting.
Any duplicate page issues now have a 200 code since I straightened out the title tags.
So what am I missing here?
Thanks in advance,
Sharon

Hi Dan,
Thank you so very much!! I think things have caught up...I chatted with Google a few days ago and they said everything is ok. I am starting to see some keywords surface; it probably will kick in shortly, as I did quite a bit of SEO work with the new site.
I very much appreciate your help!
Best,
Sharon

Hi Sharon
Is there specific content or pages you're not seeing indexed that should be?
I checked with a site search and see that about 282 pages are indexed right now. I crawled the site, got about 578 active URLs, and subtracting /wp-content/ URLs and subpages, that leaves about 280ish URLs (correction, 380ish), which is the number indexed in Google. which is only 100 more than the number indexed in Google.
Perhaps things caught up, let me know if there's a URL not indexed that you expect to be.
Thanks!

Hi Nicolas,
Yes, I did. I chatted with Google twice on Saturday, and they assured me that the site is being crawled - so, I dunno. I will wait a week or so and recheck the console and MOZ stats.
Thank you for taking the time to respond.

Removed Subdomain Sites Still in Google Index
Hey guys, I've got kind of a strange situation going on and I can't seem to find it addressed anywhere. I have a site that at one point had several development sites set up at subdomains. Those sites have since launched on their own domains, but the subdomain sites are still showing up in the Google index. However, if you look at the cached version of pages on these non-existent subdomains, it lists the NEW url, not the dev one in the little blurb that says "This is Google's cached version of www.correcturl.com." Clearly Google recognizes that the content resides at the new location, so how come the old pages are still in the index? Attempting to visit one of them gives a "Server Not Found" error, so they are definitely gone. This is happening to a couple of sites, one that was launched over a year ago so it doesn't appear to be a "wait and see" solution. Any suggestions would be a huge help. Thanks!!

Added 301 redirects, pages still earning duplicate content warning
We recently added a number of 301 redirects for duplicate content pages, but even with this addition they are still showing up as duplicate content. Am I missing something here? Or is this a duplicate content warning I should ignore?

We are using Hotlink Protection on our server for jpg mostly. What is moz.com address to allow crawl access?
We are using Hotlink Protection on our server for jpg mostly. What is moz.com crawl url address so we can allow it in the list of allowed domains? The reason is that the crawl statistics gives our a ton of 403 Forbidden errors. Thanks.

Sitemap as Referrer in Crawl Error Report
I have just downloaded the SEOMoz crawl error report, and I have a number of pages listed which all show FALSE. The only common denominator is the referrer - the sitemap. I can't find anything wrong, should I be worried this is appearing in the error report?

Duplicate Page Title Crawl Error Issue
In the last crawl for on of our client websites the duplicate page title and page content numbers were very high. They are reading every page twice. http://www.barefootparadisevacations.com and http://barefootparadisevacations.com are being read as two different pages with the same page title. After the last crawl I used our built in redirect tool to redirect the urls, but the most recent crawl showed the same issue. Is this issue really hurting our rankings and if so, any suggestions on a fix for the problem? Thank you!
