Description and Title keyword Not showing in Google SERP?
-
It appears our description and title have disappeared in Goggle and Bing search results. We currently did a update to Magento 1.7 and the robots.txt included this:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /
But that is fixed in Google Webmaster tools and everything else looks good.
Here is the site:
http://www.oxygenconcentratorstore.com/
Any help would be awesome. Thanks.

agree, the homepage has an issue should rank first and the homepage indexing is the problem i believe he is asking about.
doing a query for the domain name you see this is the URL that is showing
http://www.oxygenconcentratorstore.com/
not
http://www.oxygenconcentratorstore.com
so http://www.oxygenconcentratorstore.com/ probably has or had the title tag "Oxygen Concentrators" and no meta description so that is why you are not seeing the title tag and meta description as seen in the source of this page http://www.oxygenconcentratorstore.com, it's a different indexed page in Google.
a) 301 redirect the / to the non slash version
b) make sure you are linking to the non / version in sitemap.xml files
c) make sure the homepage logo and other places on the site that are linking to the homepage are doing so without the slash at the end
e) add the canonical tag to the homepage without the slash in it
f) when doing link building link to the homepage (if you must link to the homepage) without the slash.
g) slash of no slash it doesn't matter, just do it one way and keep it consistent
thumbs down that answer i dare you lol

Thanks a bunch!

Yes, you should wait to a recrawl at least to worry about it.
Submit a sitemap trough WMT if possible and check back the SERP results in 1 or 2 days
Keep us informed to see if we can help further!

It was downloaded 11 hours ago. Do I just need to wait until after the site is crawled again?
-
if you do a site search, there arent issues with metas (well, the main URL doesnt show first...thats should be a problem)
Instead, you should try with a query for the domain name, and you wil see it!

When was that solved in google webmaster?
its absolutely that after having some issues with robots or google deindexing some url, the title or description doesnt appear in the SERPs, but after recrawling the site, it should appear as it was.
If you solved that in WMT long ago it could be something completely different.
So, has the site been recrawled twice since the issue was solved?
-
why would i get a thumbs down for asking where he doesn't see his title and meta description appearing? duh
-
I see title tags and meta descriptions noticed in Google
can you show a search example where they are not showing?

I keep checking by using site:www.greedybins.com.au in search. So far, only 1 title that been show correctly in SERPs. I used SEO Yoast before, I changed to All In One SEO Pack plugin, the titles are changing, but still not accurate as I made it. Somehow Google altered it by itself. I have tried fetch and submit sitemap couple times from Google Search Console. Could anyone please advise?

Google Crawling Issues! How Can I Get Google to Crawl My Website Regularly?
Hi Everyone! My website is not being crawled regularly by Google - there are weeks when it's regular but for the past month or so it does not get crawled for seven to eight days. There are some specific pages, that I want to get ranked but they of late are not being crawled AT ALL unless I use the 'Fetch As Google' tool! That's not normal, right? I have checked and re-checked the on-page metrics for these pages (and the website as a whole, backlinking is a regular and ongoing process as well! Sitemap is in place too! Resubmitted it once too! This issue is detrimental to website traffic and rankings! Would really appreciate insights from you guys! Thanks a lot!

Has Google stopped rendering author snippets on SERP pages if the author's G+ page is not actively updated?
Working with a site that has multiple authors and author microformat enabled. The image is rendering for some authors on SERP page and not for others. Difference seems to be having an updated G+ page and not having a constantly updating G+ page. any thoughts?
