Pages not indexable?
-
Hello,
I've been trying to find out why Google Search Console finds these pages non-indexable:
https://www.visitflorida.com/en-us/eat-drink.html
https://www.visitflorida.com/en-us/florida-beaches/beach-finder.html
Moz and SEMrush both crawl the pages and show no errors but GSC comes back with, "blocked by robots.txt" but I've confirmed it is not.
Anyone have any thoughts?

Hello please also guide me about my website pages are not indexing too.
-
Hi, I am also facing a similar issue. Do let me know as well if you find out any helpful guide.
-
Thanks, Mazen.
robots.txt tester doesn't show that these URL's are blocked but I still get the error upon submitting the URL. I also see that Google has indexed them at some point, yes. Thanks for that. The dev. team is reviewing further for any issues.

Hi Specscart,
I think if your assessment was correct the entire site would not be indexed as it all falls under /en-us/.

Hi Ken,
Running a quick "site:" query on both URLs, I can see that they are indexed.
You can use the robots.txt tester from the Old Search Console interface and comment out the lines that could be contributing to the block.
In all cases, the pages are sitting in the index as of this writing.

Hi I have found issue with robots.txt.
User-agent: *
Allow: /
Disallow: /content/lookup
Disallow: /en-us/deals/* Disallow: /content/visitflorida/en-us/deals/* Sitemap: https://www.visitflorida.com/sitemap.xml Do some change in robots.txt file.This issue will be corrected.
Disallow: /en-us/deals/* (you wanted to disallow deals page. but google will cosider disallow page started with /en-us )
Mention only Disallow: /deals/*
If you will correct this thing. this issue will be resolve.

Thousands of 404-pages, duplicate content pages, temporary redirect
Hi, i take over the SEO of a quite large e-commerce-site. After checking crawl issues, there seems to be +3000 4xx client errors, +3000 duplicate content issues and +35000 temporary redirects.

Drop in traffic, spike in indexed pages
Hi, We've noticed a drop in traffic compared to the previous month and the same period last year. We've also noticed a sharp spike in indexed pages (almost doubled) as reported by Search Console. The two seemed to be linked, as the drop in traffic is related to the spike in indexed pages. The only change we made to our site during this period is we reskinned out blog. One of these changes is that we've enable 'normal' (not ajax) pagination. Our blog has a lot of content on, and we have about 550 odd pages of posts. My question is, would this impact the number of pages indexed by Google, and if so could this negatively impact organic traffic? Many thanks, Jason

How do I fix issue regarding near duplicate pages on website associated to city OR local pages?
I am working on one e-commerce website where we have added 300+ pages to target different local cities in USA. We have added quite different paragraphs on 100+ pages to remove internal duplicate issue and save our website from Panda penalty. You can visit following page to know more about it. And, We have added unique paragraphs on few pages. But, I have big concerns with other elements which are available on page like Banner Gallery, Front Banner, Tool and few other attributes which are commonly available on each pages exclude 4 to 5 sentence paragraph. I have compiled one XML sitemap with all local pages and submitted to Google webmaster tools since 1st June 2013. But, I can see only 1 indexed page by Google on Google webmaster tools. http://www.bannerbuzz.com/local http://www.bannerbuzz.com/local/US/Alabama/Vinyl-Banners http://www.bannerbuzz.com/local/MO/Kansas-City/Vinyl-Banners and so on... Can anyone suggest me best solution for it?

Google indexing directory folder listing page
Google somehow managed to find several of our images index folders and decided to include them into their index. Example: websitesite.com/category/images/ is what you'll see when doing a site:website.com search. So, I have two-part question: 1) Does this hurt our site's ability to rank in any way?
Technical SEO | | invision
Because all Google sees is just a directory listing page with a bunch of links to images in the folder. 2) If there could be any negative effect, what is the best way to get these folders out of Google's index?
I could block via robots.txt, but I'm afraid it will also block all the images in that folder from being indexed in Google image search. I could also turn off directory listing in cpanel / htaccess, but then that gives is a 403 forbidden. Will this hurt the site in anyway and would it prevent Google from indexing the images in the directory? Thanks,

Can I use canonical tags to merge property map pages and availability pages to their counterpart overview pages?
I have a property website, for each property are 4-5 tabs each with their own URL, these pages include the overview page which is content rich, and auxilliary pages such as maps, availability, can I use a canonical tag to merge the tabs with very little content to their corresponding overview page which is content rich? I.e. www.mywebsite.co.uk/property-1/overview This page has tabs for map, town info, availability which all have their own url i.e. www.mywebsite.co.uk/property-1/map

www.mywebsite.co.uk/property-1/availability
www.mywebsite.co.uk/property-1/towninfo Because these auxilary pages do not contain much content can I place a canonical tag in them pointing back to the content rich overview page at www.mywebsite.co.uk/property-1/overview?0
