Is my website indexed correctly in Google - www.couponshop.co.uk
-
Our website www.couponshop.co.uk has just had a relaunch after a change of direction.
A lot of the pages were redirected. When I checked the indexing of the website on Google, I put site:couponshop.co.uk and only two pages come up, but when I put site:www.couponshop.co.uk they all show up.
Is this correct or are we doing something wrong? -
Thank you for your help, I'll get the technical team to look at this.

You need to figure out what is going on with u.couponshop.co.uk as there are about 108 pages listed that get mixed up when you search
site:couponshop.co.uk/
If you go to page 9 you then get your https://www.couponshop.com results. What is interesting is out of the 13,000 pages listed the u.couponshop URLs are listed before the www ones. This is an issue.
Those old URLs need to be redirected to the proper URLs on the current site if those URL get traffic or have links to them.
site:u.couponshop.co.uk/
Can be used to find the u.couponshop pages. You will need to look in your server logs to see how often Google is crawling them. You may find that Google is crawling them a fair amount and so you need to get them taken care of. You also want to see if there are any sites linking to these URLs as well to determine if they are of value to you.
Somewhere on your server you are serving up pages with redirects and Google is crawling them and cataloging them and may not be paying as much attention to your new website.
-
It looks like these urls most be from a while back.
The website has never gone down, we just relaunched it with a new design & direction, which was about 2 months ago.
-
Oh I see what you mean, I opened some of the results and they are just 301 redirects (presumably set up by your company?). Were these previous URLs used before your change of direction?
I do get some of the same results (like for the www search, e.g. a link to https://www.couponshop.co.uk/category/Jewellery on page
when looking through the 13,100 results but they just seem to be one every once in a while among u.couponshop.co.uk redirects.When did you relaunch your website?
-
That's not our website.
-
I just did a screenshot of a section of the results, but it does show more results in the actual SERP, see attached image, that's positions 3-10.
-
Thank you for your response. But it only shows our website twice?
https://www.couponshop.co.uk/stores
https://www.couponshop.co.uk -
When I do a search for site:couponshop.co.uk, I get 13,100 results. Is that roughly what you would expect to see? For site:www.couponshop.co.uk I get 13,000 results.

WWW vs Non WWW for EXISTING site.
This one has sort of been asked already but I cannot find an answer. When we evaluate a new SEO client, previously with Majestic we would review the root domain vs sub domain (www) for which had the higher Trust Flow and Citation flow, and if there was a major difference, adjust the Google indexed domain to the higher peforming one. Is there a way to do this with Moz, Domain Authority, and Sub Domain authority are always returning the same DA for me. Thanks in advance.

Page missing from Google index
Hi all, One of our most important pages seems to be missing from the Google index. A number of our collections pages (e.g., http://perfectlinens.com/collections/size-king) are thin, so we've included a canonical reference in all of them to the main collection page (http://perfectlinens.com/collections/all). However, I don't see the main collection page in any Google search result. When I search using "info:http://perfectlinens.com/collections/all", the page displayed is our homepage. Why is this happening? The main collection page has a rel=canonical reference to itself (auto-generated by Shopify so I can't control that). Thanks! WUKeBVB

Why has google stopped showing one domain and switching to showing another that points to the same website?
My client has a website here: http://www.savannahchiropractic.com/ The site ranked really well for searches for the term "savannah chiroprtactor". Sometime last week (April 21 mobilegeddon?) the site slipped in rankings, but reappeared under the domain name: "www.whitemarshchiropractic.com" Both URLs go to the exact same site. and I don't even think that the whitemarshchripractic.com site is a redirect. I'm not sure how it's setup, but it's definitely not a duplicate site. The ranking is still lower than the savannahchiropractic.com site, but now appears. Anyone have any insights on this?

Will you get more 'google juice' if your social links are in your websites header, rather than its footer?
Hi team, I'm in the process of making some aesthetic changes to my website. Its getting quite cluttered so the main purpose is to clean up its look. I currently have 3x social links in the header, right at the top, and i would really like to move these to the footer to remove some clutter in the header. My concern is that moving them may have an impact on the domains ranking in google. Website: www.mountainjade.co.nz We've made some huge gains against our competitors over the past 6 months and I don't want to jeopardise that. Any help would be much appreciated as i'm self taught in SEO and have learnt through making mistakes. This time however, with Moz, i'd rather get some advice before I make any decisions! Thanks is advance, Jake S

Website completely dropped off Google in our top keywords
Over the weekend, our website (http://www.esdandassociates.com) completely dropped off the google database in our top keywords. The only way that our site can be found is if you specifically type in the company name. Other search engines were unaffected and rankings remained the same or rose for the week. Previous keywords that we ranked in the first couple of positions (san antonio advertising agency, san antonio public relations) are now not in the top 50. We have not made any recent changes to our site besides basic content updates and all appears normal regarding crawler access. I have also not been able to find anything irregular in webmaster tools. Any ideas?
