Why do I suddenly have so many more page errors?
-
I've been working diligently to remove page errors that appear after each scan of my website. I was down to 3 or 4 errors after the last crawl, now this week I'm getting 80 plus. I haven't changed anything since last week (page titles, etc.) so what's up?
-
Hey, thanks! I'll talk with my programmers to see what's up.
-
You only need the https on the page that accepts credit cards, not the whole site.
-
Thanks Alan.
We do accept credit cards so the https is necessary. I'll look into the canonical tags and see what I can do.
-
I dcant tell you, they obviously did not crawl the whole site the first time. If you are new, then that would be the case as they only do a quick crawl the first time.
the above problem you show, needs a canonical tag to fix it.
Also is there a reason for using https? this encrypts the page, making it slower, if you are nort handling credit cards i would not use https

Okay, here's the scoop. Last week I showed 4 pages with duplicate page content (all contact forms for different purposes) and 4 pages with missing or duplicate page titles. I fixed the page titles by giving each of the 4 pages a unique title.
This week, I have 26 pages with duplicate content and 73 with duplicate page titles. Here's a sample of what I got:
Teak Products for Boats : Teakworks4u
http://www.teakworks4u.com/Marine-Teak/?xid_3ccf5=45aab4acddfd1537ff7b65905a3d88ac
The report says there are 38 pages with the same page title. Here is a sampling:
https://www.teakworks4u.com/Marine-Teak/?sort=price&page=2
https://www.teakworks4u.com/Marine-Teak/?sort=price&page=2
https://www.teakworks4u.com/Marine-Teak/?sort=price&page=3
https://www.teakworks4u.com/Marine-Teak/?page=2&sort=title&sort_direction=1
Why are these showing up all of a sudden? I haven't changed anything other than what I mentioned above.It makes no sense to me that this would start to show up now.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A url would be helpfull.
its hard to say without knowing the rros and the errors you fixed, some times fixing errors makes it posible for the crawler to find others it could not crawl previously.

Can a page lose ranking because it has too many bold tags?
I run a product search website for the Engineering Sector. Each of the companies listed on the website has a profile page. This page used to rank very well in google. Over the last couple of weeks these pages disappeared for google i.e they fell about 20 to 30 spots in the search results for relevant keywords like the Manufacturer Name. I was trying to analyze the page and found that Each of the Categories that the manufacturer supports was listed in "bold" and linked to the page for that category. A manufacturer can support up to 20 or 30 categories so this results in about 20 or 30 Bold keywords. Is this a bad practice? Could this be a reason for a drop in ranking or do bold keywords on a page not matter? What are your views?

Too Many On-Page Links
If a page has more than 100 links, rather than splitting up the page into multiple pages, is it ok to use name="robots" content="noindex, follow" />? The page in question lists links to articles so the page itself isn't that important to appear in serps, but the articles are the helpful content pages: www.ides.com/articles/processing/injection-molding/

How to fix duplicate page content and page titles?
Apologies in advance if this has already been answered (it probably has) - I'm just not seeing it. Is there a guide on here for how to fix the issues brought up by the crawler - specifically, things like duplicate page content, or duplicate page titles? A lot of these seem to have been created by wordpress.org combos that I didn't anticipate - i.e., category pages, author pages, etc. The crawler brings up the problems, but I don' t know where to start to go about fixing them. Also, any guide on best SEO practices or fixing optimization problems, specifically for wordpress.org blogs, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Page URL Hiearchy
So I have read on here that page URL Hiearchy is important. My question is from a search engine standpoint which of the following methods would be the best to use (or another if not listed) COMPACT and naturally hierarchical MountainBiking.com MountainBiking.com/adventures ( a list of the pages below ) MountainBiking.com/adventures/in whistler (for each page) MountainBiking.com/adventures/in utah OR VERBOSE but reptetive MountainBiking.com MountainBiking.com/Mountain Biking adventures ( intro + a list of the pages below ) MountainBiking.com/Mountain Biking Adventures/Mounting Biking adventures in whistler MountainBiking.com/Mountain Biking Adventures/Mountain Biking Adventures in Utah It seemed like the blog I read suggested the compact form, but it seems to me that the verbose (though admittedly a bit clunky) seems better so far as exact keyword match etc. Experience and or advice on this?
