Google Webmaster Tools: MESSAGE

Dear site owner or webmaster of http://www.enakliyat.com.tr/,
Some of your site's pages may be using techniques that do not comply with Google's Webmaster Guidelines.
On your site, in particular, does not provide an adequate level of innovation in low-quality unique content or set of pages. Examples of this type of thin affiliate pages, pages, bridge pages, it will automatically be created or copied content. For more information about the unique and interesting content, visit http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=66361.
We recommend you to make the necessary changes to your site to fit your site's quality guidelines. After making these changes, please submit your site for reconsideration in Google's search results.

Sincerely,
Google Search Quality Team**After this massege ve find our low quality pages and we added this urls on Robots.txt. Other than that, what can we do? **
**Our site is a home to home moving listing portal. Consumers who wants to move his home fills a form so that moving companies can cote prices. We were generating listing page URL’s by using the title submitted by customer. **

Generally, if you've been hit by a penalty, blocking with robots.txt isn't enough. You generally either have to remove or improve those pages entirely.
As you can see, most of these pages are still in the index.
When looking at your site, I found many pages like this:
http://www.enakliyat.com.tr/hata.aspx?aspxerrorpath=/manisa-evden-eve-nakliyat-fiyatlari-37
And also "thin" pages without much unique content. If these pages are valuable to your customer, you should consider updating them with fresh, unique content, then file a reconsideration request with Google to lift the penalty.

we all learned about google's guidelines but we really have no idea where is the problem or what cause the problem if you went to our website we have been destroyed all of our duplicate page content and problem's that google ask's us to and now we all think that alright thats all its fixed but when we ask to google to come and check our website again google keep sending us the same and the same message.

If you just want to block them from the index then best practice is usually considered to do it with a robots meta tag rather than the robots.txt file. See here for a better run down of the options and why one is better than the other for various situations: http://moz.com/learn/seo/robotstxt and also a good post here on duplicate/thin content: http://moz.com/blog/fat-pandas-and-thin-content
I would think that in your case you might be able to get enough unique content on those pages (at least the company pages) to make them more acceptable to google. Thinking off the top of my head you could:
- Add information to the page meta and title tags so that the companies location is included, and your brand is also mentioned
- Force the companies to add a proper profile!
- Add some of your own unique content about the company, the areas they service, their specialties etc etc
- once you have better content then encourage users to leave comments/ratings etc
There are not THAT many company pages in your robots.txt so with a bit of brainstorming on the best way to phrase things and to increase unique content on those pages you should be able to come up with a strategy that will allow you with a bit of effort to comply with the google guidelines and also make the pages more user friendly and more informative generally.

You either have to comply to their guidelines or use a different method to grow your business such as using social media.

Webmaster tools not showing links but Moz OSE is showing links. Why can't I see them in the Google Search Console
Hi, Please see attached photos. I have a website that shows external follow links when performing a search on open site explorer. However, they are not recognised or visible in search console. This is the case for both internal and external links. The internal links are 'no follow' which I am getting developer to rectify. Any ideas why I cant see the 'follow' external links? Thanks in advance to those who help me out. Jesse T7dkL5s T7dkL5s OkQmPL4 3qILHqS

Tool to Generate All the URLs on a Domain
Hi all, I've been using xml-sitemaps.com for a while to generate a list of all the URLs that exist on a domain. However, this tool only works for websites with under 500 URLs on a domain. The paid tool doesn't offer what we are looking for either. I'm hoping someone can help with a recommendation. We're looking for a tool that can: Crawl, and list, all the indexed URLs on a domain, including .pdf and .doc files (ideally in a .xls or .txt file) Crawl multiple domains with unlimited URLs (we have 5 websites with 500+ URLs on them) Seems pretty simple, but we haven't been able to find something that isn't tailored toward management of a single domain or that can crawl a huge volume of content.

Should I remove these pages from the Google index?
Hi there, Please have a look at the following URL http://www.elefant-tours.com/index.php?callback=imagerotator&gid=65&483. It's a "sitemap" generated by a Wordpress plug-in called NextGen gallery and it maps all the images that have been added to the site through this plugin, which is quite a lot in this case. I can see that these "sitemap" pages have been indexed by Google and I'm wondering whether I should remove these or not? In my opinion these are pages that a search engine would never would want to serve as a search result and pages that a visitor never would want to see. Attracting any traffic through Google images is irrelevant in this case. What is your advice? Block it or leave it indexed or something else?

Why is google webmaster tools ignoring my url parameter settings
I have set up several url parameters in webmaster tools that do things like select a specific products colour or size. I have set the parameter in google to "narrows" the page and selected to crawl no urls but in the duplicate content section each of these are still shown as being 2 pages with the same content. Is this just normal, i.e. showing me that they are the same anyway or is google deliberately ignoring my settings (which I assume it does when they are sure they know better or think I have made a mistake)?

Google has not been visiting my site
Hi I am working on a site at the moment http://www.cheapflightsgatwick.com and i had the site using a different template and in the search engines for the search term cheap flights gatwick we were fourth and for the term holiday magazine we were 12th in google but now we are not even in google on the first page for the search terms. But now after changing the template in joomla our rankings have gone out of the window. It took me about a day to sort out the site with the new template so i was not expecting any problems with the search engines but for some reason there is. If you put into the search engine www.cheapflightsgatwick.com then you will see that google has not visited the site for four days and also it is not showing the description and instead it is showing details about joomla. Can anyone let me know if there is anything i need to do to sort this out and why google is taking so long to visit my site
