How to Resolve Google Crawling Issues for My eCommerce Website?
-
I want to resolve Google crawling issues for my eCommerce website. My website is as follow.
http://www.vistastores.com/ Google have crawled only 97 webpages from my website. My website is quite old. (~More than 6 months) But, Google have indexed only 97 webpages.
I have created one campaign over SEOmoz tool and found some errors over there. So, I just assumed that due to it Google did not crawled my website.
But, I have created one another campaign for my competitor website to know actual status and reason behind it.
I found that, my competitor website have more error compare to me but, Google have crawled maximum pages compare to me.
So, What is reason behind it? How can I improve my crawling rate and index maximum webpages to Google?

I aware about it. But, I have confusion with omitted results. Google shows me 509 URLs in visible portion and remaining one in omitted results.
I have checked similar result for my competitor with table lamps keyword.
site:simplytablelamps.com
Google shows 2470 pages for my competitor and omitted result is very less compare to my website.
I really don't know more about it but it may cut out my impression with products which are included in omitted result. This is my assumption. What you think about it? If you can give me more idea so it will help me more.

When I do a site:vistastores.com, I see about 2300 results indexed in Google, which indicates Google is both indexing and crawling your site. How many pages do you have?

Hi, Liam
I come back on this question after long time. Because, I am still surviving with crawling issue. Google is not crawling my website after implement all checklists.
Today, I read one blog post about to increase Google crawl rate.
Blog suggesting to set custom crawl rate with help of Google webmaster tools. So, Does it really matter to improve crawling?
What is important and helpful ... natural crawling by Google or embarrassing crawling by Google?

I am going forward with multiple XML sitemap after long R & D.
-
I am still waiting for additional answers in same direction. Can any one help me? I need answer on urgent basis.
-
Yes, your suggestion is right. I have added XML sitemap to Google webmaster tools. But, I am still confuse with crawling.
-
Not sure if you've already done this, but if not - signup to Google Webmaster Tools and submit your sitemap. You can also check crawl errors etc.
With e-commerce websites it's always useful to use an automated XML sitemap so that each product page is added and can then be crawled and indexed.
Let me know if this answers your question??

Strange Key Word Results on Google
I'm trying to rank for the keywords "Chicago General Contractor" My landing page is https://3fconstruction.net/chicago-general-contractor/ However, in Google a variant page on my site (How to apply for a General Contractor's license - https://3fconstruction.net/how-to-apply-general-contractors-license-chicago/) that is optimized for "General Contractor License Chicago" is coming up first and the target page does not even seem to appear. I've forced a google crawl of my site and the page still does not appear. I've used the moz on-page grader and results of the target page are good. I'm perplexed and wonder if google is preventing the target page from appearing. Any thought on how to fix this?

Hi, 1. Is there any way to get the moz crawl to analyse any site like the website auditor tool in seo powersuite on command. It would be good to see what keyword my competitors are using. would also like to analyse my site when i have corrected errors on command. 2. Is google adwords keyword tool still the best keyword research tool? I Don't see anything in the newbie guides to the moz pro tool regarding keyword research. Thanks! David.

Google Search - One page having problems
this issue is concerning my site - cruvoir.com we retail designer clothing online, and currently have 17 'designer' pages - one for each manufacturer brand name. We target these brand names for our campaign and track the progress with Moz and try to focus them in Google search. Of many of the designer names, we rank pretty well in Google search (usually under #15 when searching for the specific brand. All brands are doing well, except one brand : "Lost And Found" - a designer label we carry. This is the page for this brand name : https://cruvoir.com/5-lost-and-found we cannot figure it out. It happens to be our most important label we carry. when we search for this brand name or include it in any other search terms, we never are in the google search results. I expect it is a crawl issue, but we have covered all our ground in optimizing this brand page. It seems this page is also indexed with Google. But we cannot figure out why it does not rank us in search.

Blog Comment IPs Seen By Google?
I have a page on a client's site for testimonials (a dental practice). The page is actually a post on a Wordpress install where customers can enter their testimonials as WP comments. In an effort to encourage more clients to give more testimonials I was considering setting up an iPad or other tablet at the receptionist's desk where patients would be able to enter their successes as comments on the page. If I made sure the patients all used unique names and emails in the Wordpress comments, would Google still see all the comments are from the same IP and view this as suspicious?
