Multisite domain
-
good morning I have a wordpress site I have activated the multisite, currently the site has a domain authority of 8, when I publish a post, it is indexed quite quickly, if I publish a post in a language other than the /es subdomain it takes 24 hours why? If the author domain is the same, why does the employee take longer to be indexed on Google? Thank you

Hello ,
A WordPress multisite benefits from a single domain authority, you can notice slower indexing for posts in languages other than English.
Google prioritizes indexing content in languages it understands and ranks well for. Your site's focus on English content gives google a deeper understanding, potentially leading to faster indexing for English posts. Content in less familiar languages might take longer, especially if google has less data about your site's authority in those languages. User engagement signals also influence's indexing speed. If your English content receives more user interaction), google might prioritize future English posts based on this positive response. Content in other languages might initially receive less engagement which leads google to observe user behavior before fully indexing it.
Also make sure your translations maintains the same level of optimization as your English content. This includes translation accuracy, relevant keyword usage in respective languages, and proper meta descriptions for each post. Search engines typically index high-quality content faster.
Search engines crawls websites frequently based on various factors like website size, update frequency, and overall health. If your english content subdirectory (e.g., /) receives more updates or has more pages, it might be crawled more frequently, leading to faster indexing. You will need to double check for any technical issues specific to your non-english subdirectories.
Issues like broken links, slow loading times, or missing sitemaps will delay indexing for those sections of your website.
Though the author domain stays constant, these factors can contribute to the observed indexing speed variations.
My suggestions -
-Focus on relevant keywords in the respective languages and create accurate meta descriptions for each post.
-Use tools like GSC and track indexing status and identify any technical issues specific to your non-english subdirectories.
-Update sitemaps for each language subdirectory to ensure google is aware of all content and can crawl it efficiently.

Unsolved Google URL inspection live test rendering issue.
Hi Everyone, This is my first post on Moz. I have been trying to get this thing sorted and have read everywhere and everyone just says don't worry about it. I would really like some advice/suggestions on this it will be really helpful. When I use the Google URL inspection tool from the Google search console the page rendering is completely broken. The tool refuses to load resources each time. At end of the day that's how the website is rendered in Google cache. I have already tried disabling cache plugins and Cloudflare but nothing works. site - nationalcarparts.co.nz

Moving from www.domain.com/nameofblog to www.domain.com/blog
Describe your question in detail. The more information you give, the better! It helps give context for a great answer I have had my blog located at www.legacytravel.com/ramblings for a while. I now believe that, from an SEO perspective, it would be preferable to move it to www.legacytravel.com/blog. So, I want to be able to not lose any links (few though they may be) with the move. I believe I would need to do a 301 redirect in the htaccess file of www.legacytravel.com that will tell anyone who comes knocking on the door of www.legacytravel.com/ramblings/blah blah blah that now what they want is at www.legacytravel.com/blog/blah blah blah Is that correct? What would the entry look like in the htaccess? Thank you in advance.

We just recently moved site domains, and I tried to set up a new campaign for the new root domain, but it threw an error?
It threw an error saying we cannot access the SERPs of this site? Any reason why? It is an https:// site instead of the http://, but even our older domain had an https://

Umlaut in domain
Hi, My client wants to expand it's business to Germany and logically we need a domain name to match. We've found a great one and regsiterd several variants to it. However I just found out that in Germany it is possible (while here it's not) to register a domain with an umlaut. My question is: will google assign more value to: schädlinge.de than schadlinge.de when users search for schädlinge? If yes, how large will the difference be? (I will use an umlaut in the title etc) Kind regards,

Grabbing Expired Domains
How hard is it to grab expired domains? I have my eye on a domain that is expiring in 3 days, but I don't think it's quite that simple. Doesn't it go through months of waiting to become available? Is there an easy way to grab domains that are set to expire? Are the services that offer this type of service good? And who do you guys recommend?
