Training - How Google Crawls & Indexes Websites
-
Hi
Does anyone know of any online training resources/webinars/training UK based that will cover the following for SEO:
- Why monitoring how search engines crawl and index content is important and how this can improve your SEO performance
- Using Google advanced operators to evaluate website indexation
- How to use log file data to gain insight into how search engines crawl and index content
- Techniques to control how search engines crawl and index content
- How search engines deal with JavaScript, common frameworks and SEO considerations
I'm trying to develop my technical knowledge - I have always been more focused on content/KWD research/optimisation.
Thank you

May be worth trying Linked In Learning - it's a monthly subscription (premium linked in) but there is a large bank of training and courses to work through.

Server Location & SEO
So I just read an interesting Tweet: #SEO Tip: #Google takes into account the location of the server (the IP) when projecting the search results #web This is something I had not thought of. I suppose my question then is HOW does it factor this information into it's results? For some reason, one of our sites is hosted on a Canadian server. We are a cloud hosting company and we serve all of NA with data centers in the US and Canada... For whatever reason we've used the Canadian server farm for our web server. Could this possibly be hurting our NA google SERPs? Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Should I block non-informative pages from Google's index?
Our site has about 1000 pages indexed, and the vast majority of them are not useful, and/or contain little content. Some of these are: -Galleries

-Pages of images with no text except for navigation
-Popup windows that contain further information about something but contain no navigation, and sometimes only a couple sentences My question is whether or not I should put a noindex in the meta tags. I think it would be good because the ratio of quality to low quality pages right now is not good at all. I am apprehensive because if I'm blocking more than half my site from Google, won't Google see that as a suspicious or bad practice?1 -
Google Cached Pages
I made some on-site changes to a site last week, in particular their page titles. This was all done on the same day at the same time. Now, one of those pages, got re-indexed on August 8th and has my updated changes, which also helped with my ranking. The other page I made changes to still shows a cached version from July 27th, which is before I made the changes. Why wouldn't google have an updated page from August 8th for both pages, not just one?
