Why Is this page de-indexed?
-
I have dropped out for all my first page KWDs for this page
https://www.key.co.uk/en/key/dollies-load-movers-door-skates
Can anyone see an issue?
I am trying to find one....
We did just migrate to HTTPS but other areas have no problem

Hi
Yes, there was an issue with my rank tracking software - phew
Thank you

You are 5th for Heavy Duty Dolly
I don't see what the problem is - the page is doing really well??

This is not an issue.
Its totally normal to have some http indexed pages left. Even more common if the migration is recent. Dont be afraid of this Becky.

Yeap, give it a little time to google re-crawl all the new site. I´d give it nearley a month to consider that google has seen completely the new version of the site, always checking the number of indexed pages in GSC and the resuls appearing for a site: search
Being out of top 100 gives you a clue that you are in the middle of the transition.and for the keyword: _Heavy Duty Dolly; _ I do see your page. Check attached image.
Best luck.

Hi Becky
I just searched in a normal browser so it could be Google skewing the results for you.
For indexed pages

How did you find these http pages?
I did a search in Incognito, but I couldn't see anything myself.
I'll try again, thanks!

Hi
Thanks for this. Yes I've checked in Google Console, I can find the page in indexed pages but the indexed pages are a lot less since migration:
HTTP - indexed 13013, blocked 12,891
HTTPS - indexed - 2814 / blocked robots.txt 5713
Do I just wait?
One keyword example for that page would be #Heavy Duty Dolly' & 'load moving dolly'
Were position 1 now out of top 100.
We're working on page speed/load time for the whole site, but why would it affect that one page so badly?

Hi Becky,
Without knoing those relevant search terms, there's almost no analysis to be done.
I´ve noticed that it took very long time to load, here a GTmetrix report.Remember that migrating to HTTPs makes google to re-crawl all your website's pages and re evaluate all ranking factors.
My advise is to wait a little longer. It might take a few weeks.Also, always monitor the Google Search console profile, there could be some message. Take a look into indexed pages, there could be also that there are less pages indexed now than before migration.
Hope I've helped.
Best luck.

Hi Becky
Load Movers - Pos 3
Wooden dollies - Pos 1Maybe open an incognito browser with history cleared.
I don't see a problem

Nigel
PS You still have 748 http pages indexed but it's only 10% of the total

301 Redirect to Home Page or Sub-Page?
What do you think about 301 redirect of good expired domain to a sub-page instead of the home page? I'm doing this so I don't hurt my brand name. Let me know your thoughts please. Thank you

1 duplicate I have recently transfered my old html site to wordpress.
To keep the urls the same I am using a plugin which appends .htm at the end of each page. My old site home page was index.htm. I have created index.htm in wordpress as well but now there is a conflict of duplicate content. I am using latest post as my home page which is index.php Question 1.
Should I also use redirect 301 im htaccess file to transfer index.htm page authority (19) to www.example.com If yes, do I use
Redirect 301 /index.htm http://www.example.com/index.php
or
Redirect 301 /index.htm http://www.example.com Question 2
Should I change my "Home" menu link to http://www.example.com instead of http://www.example.com/index.htm that would fix the duplicate content, as indx.htm does not exist anymore. Is there a better option? Thanks0 -
Old URLs that have 301s to 404s not being de-indexed.
We have a scenario on a domain that recently moved to enforcing SSL. If a page is requested over non-ssl (http) requests, the server automatically redirects to the SSL (https) URL using a good old fashioned 301. This is great except for any page that no longer exists, in which case you get a 301 going to a 404. Here's what I mean. Case 1 - Good page: http://domain.com/goodpage -> 301 -> https://domain.com/goodpage -> 200 Case 2 - Bad page that no longer exists: http://domain.com/badpage -> 301 -> https://domain.com/badpage -> 404 Google is correctly re-indexing all the "good" pages and just displaying search results going directly to the https version. Google is stubbornly hanging on to all the "bad" pages and serving up the original URL (http://domain.com/badpage) unless we submit a removal request. But there are hundreds of these pages and this is starting to suck. Note: the load balancer does the SSL enforcement, not the CMS. So we can't detect a 404 and serve it up first. The CMS does the 404'ing. Any ideas on the best way to approach this problem? Or any idea why Google is holding on to all the old "bad" pages that no longer exist, given that we've clearly indicated with 301s that no one is home at the old address?

301 from old site to new one , Should I point to home page or sub category page ?
Hey Seo Experts, I have a small website ranking for few terms like cabinets sale, buy etc . However what i have now decided is to launch a New website with more different products like living room furniture, wardrobes etc . Out of all these categories on new website Cabinets is one of the SubCategory . Now I do not want to have 2 websites . So wanted to 301 from small cabinets website to newly created website. Some of the doubts I have at the moment is ? 1 Should I REDIRECT 301 to sub category (i,e cabinets) which is purely related to Cabinets or Do a Redirect to HOME PAGE . As I also need more Authority to home page as well , as this is relatively new website ? 2 Second question related to this. If you have multiple sub domains does it divide the total authority & TF.Or it is just Ok to have multiple Sub domains if needed ? Any advice appreciated !! Thanks .

Pages are Indexed but not Cached by Google. Why?
Here's an example: I get a 404 error for this: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:http://www.qjamba.com/restaurants-coupons/ferguson/mo/all But a search for qjamba restaurant coupons gives a clear result as does this: site:http://www.qjamba.com/restaurants-coupons/ferguson/mo/all What is going on? How can this page be indexed but not in the Google cache? I should make clear that the page is not showing up with any kind of error in webmaster tools, and Google has been crawling pages just fine. This particular page was fetched by Google yesterday with no problems, and even crawled again twice today by Google Yet, no cache.

Why is page still indexing?
Hi all, I have a few pages that - despite having a robots meta tag and no follow, no index, they are showing up in Google SERPs. In troubleshooting this with my team, it was brought up that another page could be linking to these pages and causing this. Is that plausible? How could I confirm that? Thanks,

What to do when you buy a Website without it's content which has a few thousand pages indexed?
I am currently considering buying a Website because I would like to use the domain name to build my project on. Currently that domain is in use and that site has a few thousand pages indexed and around 30 Root domains linking to it (mostly to the home page). The topic of the site is not related to what I am planing to use it for. If there is no other way, I can live with losing the link juice that the site is getting at the moment, however, I want to prevent Google from thinking that I am trying to use the power for another, non related topic and therefore run the risk of getting penalized. Are there any Google guidelines or best practices for such a case?

Landing page indexed and ranking in less then 24 hours
Hi, I got a landing page which went up last night about 11pm. Its been indexed and ranked since then. Its a EMD and has about 600 words of unqiue content. It currently sits on page 9 for what I would say is a non competitive term (the top result is not an EMD and has 10 backlinks from the same site, which has no PR). Now my question is this: Would you say that page 9 is the given position Google thinks this website should sit at? Or because its so new could I very much expect some more movement? Basically up the rankings? Cheers
