Problem with indexing
-
Hello, we've changed our CMS recently, everything seems to work well, but for some reason google, and other crawlers can't see or index other pages than main. There is no restriction in robots, nor any other visible issue. Please help if you can.

I just want to clarify what I was saying above. In my case, even though I put brand spanking new posts on my blog they weren't getting indexed. I had about 6 duplicate posts and 4 new ones and none of them were getting indexed. But, when I dealt with the duplicate content issues for those 6 (i.e got rid of the original copies and redirected the old site to the new) then all of my content suddenly got indexed. Just sayin'

Thank you. I'm sure it's not a duplicate content problem. For example even when I try to put new URL as destination in Ad words, and it didn't took as working.
I think it's more of a technical issue, not SEO, probably was a wrong question here.
Thank you again everyone for helping me out.

In my case above, I had new pages as well that weren't being indexed, but they did get indexed once I dealt with the duplicate content. Perhaps Google put some sort of block on my whole blog because of the duplicates? If your information is duplicated anywhere you need to check this.
Also, do you have webmaster tools set up? This will tell you a lot about what is happening with your domain. Have you submitted a sitemap? This will help as well.
It may also help to build a few external links to some of the new pages. This will help Google find them.
-
You may have to resubmit your site through webmaster tools AFTER fixing the forementioned issues.
-
good catch bootleg. I think if you get the dupe content and 301's working correctly google will love you a little more.
-
Yes, I've tried Xenu (right after you asked me), it shows broken links.
-
There are some new pages we've made, and still no indexing. Google visited our page quite often, and it's been almost 1 month since we've changed the URLs.
-
Thank you for the heads up. We know about the duplicate content problem, just our webmaster is somewhat slow.
The URLs are new, and we will do 301 redirect and "canonical".

How long has it been since you've had the new CMS? It can sometimes take weeks to get a site crawled and indexed.
I'll share with you something that happened to me recently that may be applicable. I recently started a new site and wrote a few blog posts. Then I changed my mind and decided that those posts would be better suited to another site I had. So, I added them to another site I had. But, they wouldn't index! I realized that I hadn't deleted the content off of my first site. So, when Google came across the new blog I'm assuming they saw all the content as duplicate and didn't index it. I immediately took the content off of the original domain and I 301'd the original domain to the new one and within hours all of my posts were indexed.

There's nothing wrong with the links and with your robots.txt. But ...
You obviously have a huge duplicate content problem. Just look at the search result the site: query returns. There are a lot of old links (from the old CMS I suppose). Click through the links and you'll always get to the main page, but the URL remains the same. I.e. no redirect to the correct page with the new URL or to the Homepage.
You should have a look at your old URLs and redirect them with a HTTP 301 redirect to the new URL.
As a quick fix add a rel="canonical" tag to your new pages. This way google will index the correct page (and only the correct page) on its next crawl. Setting up the redirects should have happened prior to switching the CMS ...

Have you tried crawling it with Xenu?
-
are you using the exact same URL's with the new CMS as the old cms? if not have you done 301's?

Sudden Indexation of "Index of /wp-content/uploads/"
Hi all, I have suddenly noticed a massive jump in indexed pages. After performing a "site:" search, it was revealed that the sudden jump was due to the indexation of many pages beginning with the serp title "Index of /wp-content/uploads/" for many uploaded pieces of content & plugins. This has appeared approximately one month after switching to https. I have also noticed a decline in Bing rankings. Does anyone know what is causing/how to fix this? To be clear, these pages are **not **normal /wp-content/uploads/ but rather "index of" pages, being included in Google. Thank you.

Why seomoz.org still in Google index?
I searched in Google, the number of URLs indexed left in the seomoz.org domain since it changed to moz.comI am surprised that after all this time more than 15,000 URLs indexed:https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=site%3Aseomoz.org%20inurl%3Aseomoz.org If I clicked on any of the results it will be redirect (301) to the new domain, so it is working, but Google still keep these URLs in the index.
