Google Cache Is Blank for Text-only
-
Hi,
I'm doing some SEO for www.suprafootwear.com, and for some reason when I go to text-only in google cache, nothing shows up.
http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:suprafootwear.com&es_sm=91&strip=1
That seems to be the case for all of the different pages on the site, but the content is still appearing on the serp. I have never seen this before, and I'm not sure what's happening.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Great. Thank you!

I think this just has to do with the way you have your front end code designed. I went to the link you provided and yes the information that is displayed is blank except for a semi colon. If you view source for that page, you can see all the content in the HTML of the text only cache version.
There is some interaction with the header that google uses on that page and the code on your site so that it looks blank even though all the information is there. Google can obviously read it, it is just not displaying correctly in that mode.
I ran your home page through the WC3 validator
You have 125 errors and 32 warnings. That may point to what is going on here. Worth fixing all that and doing some cross browser testing to make sure the code displays across browsers etc.
Cheers!

How does Google handle fractions in titles?
Which is better practice, using 1/2" or ½"? The keyword research suggests people search for "1 2" with the space being the "/". How does Google handle fractions? Would ½ be the same as 1/2?

Can you index a Google doc?
We have updated and added completely new content to our state pages. Our old state content is sitting in a our Google drive. Can I make these public to get them indexed and provide a link back to our state pages? In theory it sounds like a great link building strategy... TIA!

Anchor Text vs. Button Links
Hi How important are anchor text links within your own site vs. buttons for SEO? We've redesigned some of our pages from anchor text links to buttons which are just clickable images.I know historically this isn't the best way, but is it still as important as it used to be?

Does Google hate wordpress?
I have my categories pages set to noindex, follow. I deactivated the author and date based archives, and all the /page/2 /page/3 are noindex. Is this the right approach? I had thought about adding some text to the topic of each category page and then changing them to index. I'm using showing recent post excerpts on the homepage. Another other suggestions? I think two of my sites are in panda for no good reason. It seems like non-wordpress blogs in my industry do better than comparable wordpress sites.

Why am I not ranking in Google, but I am in Yahoo and Bing?
The website in question is: www.stbarthexclusives.com Our keywords are currently ranking for both Bing and Yahoo, but we're not appearing anywhere on Google. The website is being crawled successfully, but we still don't have any results. I hoping somebody can point me in the general right direction to fix/correct this problem. Additionally, there's a decent amount of "rel=canonical tags" on the website. If that helps your evaluation. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Indexed Pages in Google, How do I find Out?
Is there a way to get a list of pages that google has indexed? Is there some software that can do this? I do not have access to webmaster tools, so hoping there is another way to do this.
