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

Missing Meta Description
I am fairly new to using Moz and I have just recently ran a custom report, a "Full Site Audit". On this report it has pulled up a particular area that I have a question about, please see below. Missing Description
SEO Tactics | | NicheOff
In this area it says that there are 76 pages with missing descriptions. the majority of these pages are duplicated pages, of the Homepage, that were created to help put us first on Google when searching for Office/Furniture/IT suppliers in a certain city. (i.e. Halifax, Leeds, etc)
These additional pages were created by a third-party. In order to sort out these "Missing Descriptions", what would you advise we do when filling in the Meta Descriptions?0 -

Domain forwarding
Hi Is it ok or bad practice to domain forward shorter more memorable snappier domains used for promoting a website to a longer domain where the website actually lives, such as: Promoting in social media profiles, emails and offline literature a domain with forwarding set up like: www.brand.com To the main website: www.brandincludingprimaryproductrelatedkeyword.com And if ok (not bad practice), since its the forwarded domains that are being promoted they are hence the links most likely to be shared on social media and other websites so will they be treated like 301's and 'link building' for those will pretty much equate to link building for the main domain (or not) ? Many Thanks Dan

Any way around buying hosting for an old domain to 301 redirect to a new domain?
Howdy. I have just read this QA thread, so I think I have my answer. But I'm going to ask anyway! Basically DomainA.com is being retired, and DomainB.com is going to be launched. We're going to have to redirect numerous URLs from DomainA.com to DomainB.com. I think the way to go about this is to continue paying for hosting for DomainA.com, serving a .htaccess from that hosting account, and then hosting DomainB.com separately. Anybody know of a way to avoid paying for hosting a .htaccess file on DomainA.com? Thanks!
