Google Webmaster Tools Not Showing Correct Data?
-
Hi,
I am experience a weird issue. Google webmaster tools suggested me some HTML improvements a few weeks ago. The suggestions were about duplicate Title Tags and Short Meta Descriptions. I changed the Title Tags and Meta Descriptions. But after 3 Google Updates, webmaster still shows the same suggestion.
Please advise
Thanks

Just had to chime in here. I made changes at least 6 weeks ago, probably more like 12 weeks for some pages, and Google is not updating the HTML improvements page. I will look into trying to manually send some URLs in to see if this changes.

Dimitri beat me to the suggestion.
It does take a long time but at least you'll know the correction itself has been picked up if you Fetch it. You're now making me curious to get some issues like that generated on purpose and then time the removal of the warning when both a natural crawl and Fetch are used. Is it different timing in Webmaster Tools? Odd that I've never thought to ask that but now looking forward to a simple and easy to run test.

Hi Kashif,
Give it a try and let us know if you think it works, in our case it didn't change anything unfortunately. You usually have to wait like mentioned above a very long time.

hi,
this i should try to manually fetch those pages.
Thanks

Hi,
Updates means Crawl Update. I have made changes about 3 weeks ago and updated the site map too. During these 3 weeks, google have crawled my site 3 times. But the html improvement suggestions do not change.

It takes reeeeally long time for GMT to refresh their data. I'd recommend to request recrawl manually for those pages. And just make sure that the pages are updated. Sometimes I forget to upload some changes and then wondering why in the world nothing is working

Hello Kashif,
By "Google Updates" do you mean crawls of your site, or updates to the algorithm? It sounds as if your site has not been crawled/indexed since you made the changes, which is why GWT isn't indicating the issues have been fixed. This sounds like an issue that some time and patience will solve.
How long has it been since you made the updates?
Thanks,
Rob
