Index Problem
-
Hi guys
I have a critical problem with google crawler.
Its my website : https://1stquest.com
I can't create sitemap with online site map creator tools such as XML-simemap.org
Fetch as google tools usually mark as partial
MOZ crawler test found both HTTP and HTTPS version on site!
and google cant index several pages on site.
Is problem regards to "unsafe URL"? or something else?

Hi peter
just curious did you have to do anything specific for SEO side of things? I am working with a developer who assures me that angular will not impact on SEO but looking at their past efforts I am not too sure?

Hello all,
Thought I'd drop in my $0.02 about Google and Angular JS. We switched over to it two weeks ago at FixedPriceCarService.com.au - existing pages were fine, with no transition issues, and same goes for all the new pages we added. All were indexed quite quickly on Google.
Google Search Console has no issue with finding things like Page Title and Meta Description that have their home now in the DOM.
I'm curious about when MOZ might also be able to crawl the DOM, and not report missing page titles that are not truly missing, rather they've been relocated.

Hi Hamid!
Did Peter or Martijn answer your question? If so, please mark one or both as a Good Answer.
If not, what are you still looking for?

Peter is indeed correct, it doesn't seem you have to worry about unsafe URLs but more about the technical way that your site is built. AngularJS is relatively new and Google and as it's JS based it's rather hard for Google to retrieve all the content already on these pages in order to 'get' the whole page. His suggestion is also spot on and will make it easier for search engines to crawl, read and index your site.

If you can't create xml sitemap then you can make plugin for your site with your devs for this. Google can't render your webiste because technology. I've seen that your site using AngularJS and you have tiny HTML code.
However there is solution for you described here:
https://www.distilled.net/resources/prerender-and-you-a-case-study-in-ajax-crawlability/So if you provide fully rendered HTML to search engine bots then your site can be finally indexed proper.

Why is a canonicalized URL still in index?
Hi Mozers, We recently canonicalized a few thousand URLs but when I search for these pages using the site: operator I can see that they are all still in Google's index. Why is that? Is it reasonable to expect that they would be taken out of the index? Or should we only expect that they won't rank as high as the canonical URLs? Thanks!

Why do some reputable publishers have problems with their microdata?
I'm using the Google Structured Data Testing Tool to test: https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool NY Times and Women's Health being two good examples. These two reputable publishers don't seem to have the microdata they've implemented recognized. Are they doing something wrong or is there a problem with the tool?

Webmaster Tools Not Indexing New Pages
Hi there Mozzers, Running into a small issue. After a homepage redesign (from a list of blog posts to a product page), it seems that blog posts are buried on the http://OrangeOctop.us/ site. The latest write-up on "how to beat real madrid in FIFA 15", http://orangeoctop.us/against-real-madrid-fifa-15/ , has yet to be indexed. It would normally take about a day naturally for pages to be indexed or instantly with a manual submission. I have gone into webmaster tools and manually submitted the page for crawls multiple times on multiple devices. Still not showing up in the search results. Can anybody advise?

Technical Automated Content - Indexing & Value
One of my clients provides some Financial Analysis tools, which generate automated content on a daily basis for a set of financial derivatives. Basically they try to estimate through technical means weather a particular share price is going up or down, during the day as well as their support and resistance levels. These tools are fairly popular with the visitors, however I'm not sure on the 'quality' of the content from a Google Perspective. They keep an archive of these tools which tally up to nearly a 100 thousand pages, what bothers me particularly is that the content in between each of these varies only slightly. Textually there are maybe up to 10-20 different phrases which describe the move for the day, however the page structure is otherwise similar, except for the Values which are thought to be reached on a daily basis. They believe that it could be useful for users to be able to access back-dated information to be able to see what happened in the past. The main issue is however that there is currently no back-links at all to any of these pages and I assume Google could deem these to be 'shallow' provide little content which as time passes become irrelevant. And I'm not sure if this could cause a duplicate content issue; however they already add a Date in the Title Tags, and in the content to differentiate. I am not sure how I should handle these pages; is it possible to have Google prioritize the 'daily' published one. Say If I published one today; if I had to search "Derivative Analysis" I would see the one which is dated today rather then the 'list-view' or any other older analysis.

Does Unnatural Links penalization cause de-indexation?
Hi All, One of my sites was under Unnatural Links Manual Penalization. Its been over two months since it was revoked and we see no changes at all. In fact, we still have couple of pages (important landing pages) that are still de-indexed (I checked it by searching in quotes a whole sentence within the page and got no results). Does it mean that even though the site's penalization was revoked it is not completely over yet and I just need to be patient or is there something else hovering over the website? Thanks

Is it a problem to have too many 301 redirects within your site
my website is translated into 10+ languages, but our news articles are often only published in 1-2 languages. Currently, URLs are created in the unpublished news languages that then 301 redirect the user to main news page since the content doesnt exist in that language. Is this implementation okay or is there a preferred method we should be using so that we don't have a large number of pages on the site with redirects? Thanks!

To index search results or not?
In its webmaster guidelines, Google says not to index search results " that don't add much value for users coming from search engines." I've noticed several big brands index search results, and am wondering if it is generally OK to index search results with high engagement metrics (high PVPV, time on site, etc). We have an database of content, and it seems one of the best ways to get this content in search engines would be to allow indexing of search results (to capture the long tail) rather than build thousands of static URLs. Have any smaller brands had success with allowing indexing of search results? Any best practices or recommendations?
