Indexed, but not shown in search result
-
Hi all
We face this problem for www.residentiebosrand.be, which is well programmed, added to Google Search Console and indexed. Web pages are shown in Google for site:www.residentiebosrand.be. Website has been online for 7 weeks, but still no search results.
Could you guys look at the update below?
Thanks!

Hi Nigel,
The website https://www.residentiebosrand.be/ is supposed to be ranking on 'residentie bosrand'. I know authority plays a big part in ranking on keywords. But other sites which are not as relevant as this one rank higher.
Do we just have to wait for the website to rank on this keyword?

I think if you are going to ask a question like this them be specific what the problems are. We all spend a lot of time trying to help people and are then made to feel bad because we haven't understood the question.
Also, it's in a language I can't speak.
So post up a few keywords and the pages you expect to rank for and maybe we can see what the problem is.
Cheers
Nigel

Do understand that a lot more goes into determining search results than just indexation of the words on a web page. Certainly, G uses those words to understand what search terms the site is relevant for but other factors are in play too--like authority, as in your site's authority and that of your competitors.
Among other things, authority takes into account the site's age, backlinks and engagement history and those are factors on which a new site can't easily out-compete older, more established sites--even if the older sites are not dialed into exactly the same search terms.

Hi guys,
Don't get me wrong. The site is indexed and Google shows search results. The actual question here is why the website is not ranking on the keywords it's supposed to be ranking: 'residentie bosrand'. How come we don't find the website in the search results, while these are the main keywords on the website's URL, page, ... ?
Best regards.

It's coming back with 25 results and quite a few PDF files.

Conversal, it would be helpful if you could provide a couple of search terms that you think the site should be showing up in the search results for but isn't.

Hi Conversal
There are search results - they are just not showing in SEMrush and Google takes a while to report them
Regards
Nigel

Sitelinks only show when the URL is searched- Why don't they show when our company name is searched?
Why is is that when I search "protonmail.ch", sitelinks show for our company. However when you search for "ProtonMail", no sitelinks show, even though our homepage is now on the top result. We've been trying different things to improve the navigational structure of the homepage, such as using the <nav>tag. If you have any thoughts on why sitelinks might not be showing up, we'd really appreciate it! Thank you </nav>

Duplicate Title tags vs. View All for search results
I run a directory and some search queries give almost 1000 unique results. My moz campaign tells me that I have around 1,300 duplicate title tags etc. I read online about canonical, rel=next/prev, also about having a 'view all' page just for google (page links, not search queries), but if I do this, wouldn't the slowness mean google won't index it? So the question is what is the best thing to do?

Domain that ranked 4 has now disappeared from search results
Hi Guys, I have a website for a realestate property, it use to rank 4 but has now suddenly disappeared from search results altogether, a search for the domain 1boydstreetalbertpark.com will bring it up (so I assume it has not been blacklisted), but if I search for '1 boyd street albert park' (it use to come up at 4) it doesn't seem to come up at all anymore. I know the content is not original and it is the same on other sites (it is the same content the real estate agents send to everyone) but why it suddenly disappear and I would of thought having the actual search term in the domain would help it at least appear in the results. Any Idea?

De-indexing thin content & Panda--any advantage to immediate de-indexing?
We added the nonidex, follow tag to our site about a week ago on several hundred URLs, and they are still in Google's index. I know de-indexing takes time, but I am wondering if having those URLs in the index will continue to "pandalize" the site. Would it be better to use the URL removal request? Or, should we just wait for the noindex tags to remove the URLs from the index?
