SeoMoz robot is not able to crawl my website.
-
Hi,
SeoMoz robot crawls only two web pages of my website. I contacts seomoz team and they told me that the problem is because of Javascript use. What is the solution to this? Should I contact my webdesign company and ask them to remove Javascript code?

Hi Maria,
Your menu is not optimized, but the real problem is not coming from there. Your home http://www.medixschool.ca/ has a meta refresh leading to http://www.medixschool.ca/Home/index.php instead of a 301 redirect.
You should remove this meta refresh and replace it by a 301 redirection.
Best regards,
Guillaume Voyer. -
Thanks Maximise,
I am in contact with my web developing company and looking forward for a response. Mean while it will be great if you can let me know more about it and how to go ahead with this.
thanks

Hi Maria,
I've just had a very brief look and it seems that the menu is quite reliant on JavaScript (try disabling Javascript and you will see that you can't access most of your pages). Crawlers do not use JavaScript so this could be a problem.
The ideal way to do this sort of thing is by showing and hiding menus with CSS, not JavaScript. I can have a better look and provide you with more info tomorrow if you need it.

Hi,
Thanks for the quick response. My website address is
http://www.medixschool.ca/Home/index.php
I checked the code and I can see the links.

You'll need to post the URL of your website for us to give you a definite answer. Try browsing to your website then right click and select 'view source'. if you can't see the links in the source code then crawlers can't see them either.
Sometimes menus are built badly with JavaScript, you will probably need to ask your developers to change your menu.

Entire website is duplicated on 2 domains - what to do?
My client's website has 1000+ pages and a Domain Authority of 23. I have just discovered that the entire site is duplicated on a second domain (main URL = companyname.com - duplicate site URL = company-name.com). The home page of the duplicate domain has a 301 redirect going to the main domain. However, none of the 1000+ other pages have any redirect set up, so Google is indexing the entire duplicate site. I'm assuming this is a bad thing for SEO. Duplicate site has a domain Authority of 4, so I'd like to transfer whatever link juice it has, towards the main site. What's the best thing to do? Ultimately I think it would be best to delete the duplicate site. So would it be a case of adding a redirect to the htaccess file along the lines of: redirect company-name.com/?slug? to https://companyname.com/?slug? (I realise this isn't the correct syntax - but is the concept correct?) Has anyone ever dealt with this successfully?

Robots.txt
I have a client who after designer added a robots.txt file has experience continual growth of urls blocked by robots,tx but now urls blocked (1700 aprox urls) has surpassed those indexed (1000). Surely that would mean all current urls are blocked (plus some extra mysterious ones). However pages still listing in Google and traffic being generated from organic search so doesnt look like this is the case apart from the rather alarming webmaster tools report any ideas whats going on here ? cheers dan

Launching Website
We are developing a new website and thinking google would not find it because of the directory we put it in (no homepage yet) and because there are no links to it. For example, we are building it in this directory example.com/wordpress/ but somehow google found it and indexed pages not ready to be indexed. What should we do to stop this until we are ready to launch? Should we just use a robots.txt file with this in it? User-agent: *

Sudden drop in website ranking
Since past 2 week my website www.micromaxtablet.in is experiencing sudden drops in the site ranking. I can understand this regression in the site ranking is not because of Goggle Panda update, and their is some other reason. Kindly let me know what could be the other possibilities, and plz also suggest how to get it fixed. Keyword for which the site had the best rankings (in top 3) was "micromax tablet". Now it shows on the second page in the google search and to make it worse, it's losing its position almost every second day.
