Google webmaster is not crawling links and site cache still in old date

Hi guys,
I have been trying to get my page indexed in Google with new title and descriptions but it is not getting indexed. I have checked in many tools but no useful. Can you please tell me what could be the issue? Even I have set up
And Google webmaster is not crawling links I have built so far. Few links are indexed but others do not. Why this is happening. My url is: https://www.paydaysunny.com

Hi again Kate,
you can "fetch as Google" that url on Webmaster Tools https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/googlebot-fetch and then "request indexing".
Here you have more information about it: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6065812
Greetings!

Thank you dear.
I just forgot to mention that the page I mentioned has been indexed but the inner page where I changed the title still the same. Please check this: https://www.paydaysunny.com/payday-loans.html if you check cache it does show 28th May and I changed the title and description in June.
You are right Google webmaster doesn't show most backlinks I have built so far. No Yelp link, No Google maps, or other good links.

Hi Kate,
Google has reindexed your homepage today (19 Jun 2018 02:38:44 GMT), but instead of showing the title you have "Online Payday Advance Loans - No Credit Check | Payday Sunny" is showing this one: "Payday Sunny: Online Payday Advance Loans - No Credit Check". ¿Right?
It's the same but Google changed the sequence.
I recommend you to read this: https://yoast.com/google-page-title/
"Google does all sorts of things to your title. It sometimes replaces it with parts of your URL, but it’s also known to add the brand to the end of your title, or just completely rewrite it when it feels like it"
About your meta description Google is showing searching by a site this: "Payday Sunny provides an instant payday advance loans online. Get cash advance loans amount $100, $500 and $1000. Apply today.". That's the meta description you have, but Google can also do all sorts of things to your meta description depending on the search an what Google considers for that search.
About webmaster tools don't trust much their data about crawled backlinks, it's not very good. You can see better the backlinks with tools like https://analytics.moz.com/pro/link-explorer/home or https://ahrefs.com/dashboard/metrics
But probably this tools won't either show all the links that you built. Some of them because it's too soon and the tool will take more time to find this links (specially Webmaster tools that is a bit slow for this), other tools simply won't never find them and others links maybe won't be never found by any tool because the page with the link has a noindex or is blocked by robots.txt, this has happened to me sometimes and I finally found this problem in some pages with links like on Themeforest profiles.
The best you can do is to use all this tools to watch the backlinks and you will find more than using just one.
Hope that helps
Best wishes!

Nofollow links on our site menu
Hi Our site's front page has almost 900 internal links on it (it's an ecommerce site with about 25,000 products). A lot of these are on a pretty involved dropdown menu, which is on every page. I can't really do anything to get this figure down (its outside my remit), but one thing the developers have done is make all the menu links nofollow on the mobile version of the menu (site is responsive) - otherwise there would be even more links! My question is as to whether doing this for the mobile menu is a good idea, in terms of SEO?

Should I nofollow Geo-located links on a site?
I run various sites that use Geo-location to place related links in navigation menus on a page. For example, if you land on the home page, we will see that you are in Florida and then in one of the content boxes on the page, show job listings that this site has in Florida. We also give the option to search for other jobs or use other navigation options. The idea is to try to help the user along the best we can, but ..... What opinions do persons have here on if these links should be nofollowed as GoogleBot will always see links to places in California etc. - wherever Googlebot is crawling from? Would this then be confusing as we are a site that focused on the entire US and not just California etc Thanks!

Does Google monitor which links are actually followed?
If a link to my site is posted on another site and many people start following that link and they stay on my site for a while, and I also have GA set up, does Google factor that information back into the Google rankings? In other words, are there ways that Google tries to use clicks and bounce rates and other user behavior to determine page rank and domain rank? Best,

Are site wide links bad for web developers?
Like many web dev companies, we put an anchor text credit (varying the anchor text) in the footer of clients' sites. As it's a footer link, it's site wide. This strategy's been troubling me for a while and I've been anticipating a drop in our rankings ... especially in light of Penguin. But it hasn't happened. Any other developers our there taken a hit by having site wide links? anyone have any views on this? Anyone want to comment on the spurious and unlikely scenario that Google may recognise that web dev companies have always used site wide credits and may therefore be overlooking / not penalising them?

Internal linking with Old Content
Hello, I have a sports website in which users write their opinions about the sporting events that take place every day throughout the year. Each of these sporting events generates a new page or URL indicating the match with date. For example: www.domain.com/baseball/boston-v-yankees-04-24-2012-1234.html The teams face several times a year, and each match creates a different URL or page. I would like to link old pages to new pages and vice versa. How would you recommend these pages to be linked? Linking them to each other or linking old pages to new pages that are generated or otherwise? I would appreciate your orientation and help in this case. Thank you.

Google Duplicate Content Penalty On My Own Site?
I am certain that I have hit a google penalty filter for my site http://www.playpokeronline.ca for my main keywords "play poker online" in google.ca I rank 670th and used to be on the first page between 1 and 10 in June. On Bing I am like 9th On my site I found the entire site duplicated as follows Original: www.playpokeronline.ca Duplicate www.playpokeronline.ca/playpokeronline/ this duplicate was not intentional and seems to be a result of my hosting at godaddy. for every page on my site and it shows up in webmaster tools I blocked the duplicate with robots.txt and a few days ago dropped it and wrote a rel=connonical tag in the top of each page visitors dropped from 100 per day in august to 12-20 in the last month. Google says that if duplicate content is made to try to game serps they may filter or penalize my site. Have I triggered this penalty or a different sort of over optimization penalty? Will the rel= canonical tags fix this or should i do something else? This Penalty Business is Not my Idea of a good time Thank You Jeb

Site links -> anchor text and blocking
1.Does anyone know where google pulls that anchor text for the organic site links? -- Is there a way to manipulate the anchor text of the sitelinks to get our more important pages to stick out more (capitalization, punctuation etc.) 2. If i block a few of my sitelinks from showing will goolge replace it with a new sitelink or will i be left with fewer? Thanks! Srs
