Cannot recover after last error. Any further errors will be ignored.

Federico,
Great to see you my friend. I believe you are 100% correct there needs to be a lot of things inside the wrappers of the header.
As far as fixing the issues with the site throughout the 3 questions you've asked I am yet to going to weigh in on the 3rd one however if you're building a website unless you're going to hire a developer.
I strongly suggest you subscribe to a tool called team treehouse I use it, and I could not be happier.
below is a validator called unicorn that takes a look at your code
if I can make some suggestions I strongly recommend getting an HTML editor the crème de la crème is Adobe's Dreamweaver however that might be a little heavy for some people.
There are some excellent HTML editors if you Google them or if you like simply check out
or some text editors that are designed for HTML
Text Editors
Text editors are often a matter of personal preference. Try installing some other text-editors and see which one you like best. Here's a list to get you started.
- TextMate - Mac only with free trial available. This text-editor is similar to Sublime Text.
- Notepad++ Windows only and free to use. It's similar to Notepad (which is included with Windows) but has some more advanced features.
- Codekit - Mac only with free trial available. Includes support for more advanced frameworks and templating languages like Less, Sass, Stylus, Coffeescript, and more.
- Vim - This text-editor is very powerful but also difficult to learn. It's intended for advanced programmers.
I went and ran your site through Internet marketing ninjas crawl test and found some issues
here is an example of what a header when constructed correctly looks like

When you look at this and see the giant header that is what the problem is. I can help you clean up your header. I apologize that I just had some technical issues when I had recently replied. And you asked for help but there no longer stopping me from answering so.
if you look at the same URL that you posted however use the show outline and summary
you have a lot of issues stemming from the structure of your HTML.
To start out the cannot parts I have underlined and below the header or outside of the header
for instance I got the information that is pasted below here
this is your header there are certain things that belong in it
it starts with and ends with
the Apple viewport tags that you have pasted in our outside of the header
here's some information showing that those tags need to be inside of the header wrappers

Fixing Index Errors in the new Google Search Console - Help
Hi, So I have started using the new Search Console and for one of my clients, there are a few 'Index Coverage Errors'. In the old version you could simply, analyse, test and then mark any URLs as fixed - does anyone know if that is possible in the new version? There are options to validate errors but no 'mark as fixed' options. Do you need to validate the errors before you can fix them?

When, if ever, would you need to use: example.com/en
Is there any reason to have /en on your website if your website is only in English? Or is it worth having in case you are preparing to translate into other languages? And is there any advantage to being: en.example.com over example.com/en Thanks

Duplicate Page Titles in Crawl Errors (although Google is rewriting in serps ??)
Hi Im working on a client/project and crawl report is showing thousands of dupe page titles In the case of the blog/news section its aprox 50 since aprox 50 posts and they all have the same meta-title: "Brand News | Brand" as opposed to: "Title Unique to Page/Topic/KW Relating to Content | Brand" Since these are the main content pages we want to rank (in addition to the main site category pages) then i have instructed dev must prioritise populating these pages meta-titles with the actual post/article titles, as per the latter version of the above example. (I should mention that i have requested they fix all dupe titles but main content pages are the priority). Whilst this will reduce the number of dupe titles in crawl error/warning report which is a good thing, is it actually likely to increase the ranking of these news/content pages given that Google does seem to be rewriting the titles correctly in the serps based on the page content ? Many Thanks in advance for your input

How unique do product descriptions need to be?
I'm rewriting approximately 10,000 product descriptions, but for feasability it's useful to sometimes reuse some of the phrases that are there (and on other websites as they come straight from the manufacturer -eg. key features), how unique does the content have to be - are we talking 100%, 75%, 50% for it to be effective in google? Same question goes for the product title! Many thanks.
