Single Home Page Version
-
Hello,
I'd like to redirect all versions of my homepage to www.inthelighturns.com so I force Google to see only one page. Is the below rewrites all I need?
rewritecond %{http_host} ^inthelighturns.com [nc]rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.inthelighturns.com/$1 [r=301,nc]
RewriteRule ^index.(htm|html) http://www.inthelighturns.com/ [R=301,L]RewriteRule ^(.*)/index.(htm|html) http://www.inthelighturns.com/$1/ [R=301,L]
Thanks
Tyler

Not sure what your site structure is like but perhaps you want to add some lines for index.php?
rewritecond %{http_host} ^inthelighturns.com [nc]
rewriterule ^(.)$ http://www.inthelighturns.com/$1 [r=301,nc]
RewriteRule ^index.(htm|html) http://www.inthelighturns.com/ [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^(.)/index.(htm|html) http://www.inthelighturns.com/$1/... [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^index.(php) http://www.inthelighturns.com/ [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)/index.(php) http://www.inthelighturns.com/$1/... [R=301,L]

Search Console Indexed Page Count vs Site:Search Operator page count
We launched a new site and Google Search Console is showing 39 pages have been indexed. When I perform a Site:myurl.com search I see over 100 pages that appear to be indexed. Which is correct and why is there a discrepancy? Also, Search Console Page Index count started at 39 pages on 5/21 and has not increased even though we have hundreds of pages to index. But I do see more results each week from Site:psglearning.com My site is https://wwww.psglearning.com

Duplicate Page Content
Hello, After crawling our site Moz is detecting high priority duplicate page content for our product and article listing pages, For example http://store.bmiresearch.com/bangladesh/power and http://store.bmiresearch.com/newzealand/power are being listed as duplicate pages although they have seperate URLs, page titles and H1 tags. They have the same product listed but I would have thought the differentiation in other areas would be sufficient for these to not be deemed as duplicate pages. Is it likely this issue will be impacting on our search rankings? If so are there any recommendations as to how this issue can be overcome. Thanks

My Home Page meta title on Google isn't what it should be
Hey guys My website is http://www.oxfordmeetsfifth.com According to SEOcentro, my website should appear to Google as Fashion Tips for Women | Oxford Meets Fifth. I have used the Yoast plugin and force rewrote titles to ensure that is the home page meta title. It also appears correctly in browser. Could anyone advise why this is the case? Thanks in advance!

Duplicate page content
Hello, My site is being checked for errors by the PRO dashboard thing you get here and some odd duplicate content errors have appeared. Every page has a duplicate because you can see the page and the page/~username so... www.short-hairstyles.com is the same as www.short-hairstyles.com/~wwwshor I don't know if this is a problem or how the crawler found this (i'm sure I have never linked to it). But I'd like to know how to prevent it in case it is a problem if anyone knows please? Ian

What SEO considerations for multiple languages on a single page?
I am working on a language teaching site for Chinese speakers learning English. I consider myself above average when it comes to basic SEO issues, but all I know here is that Google doesn't like multiple languages on a single page. Without getting into too many details, both Chinese and English text will appear on the same page with links, tags, phonetic spellings, etc. I'm hoping someone here knows the science about using the lang="zh" xml:lang="zh" attributes within text and the effects on ranking for text within the declarations. And it'd be great if there was clarification on the link juice passed using the hreflang attribute for both internal and external links. Also, of course, any info on using both English and Chinese characters in the URL would be most helpful. A heads up on any other language specific SEO issues would also be much appreciated. My goal is to get the most out of both languages per page in terms of ranking.
