Geo ip filtering / Subdomain can't be crawled
My client has "load balancing" site traffic in the following way:
- domain: www.example.com
- traffic from US IP redirected to usa.example.com
- traffic from non-US IP redirected to www2.example.com
The reason for doing this is that site contents on the www2 contains herbal medicine info banned by FDA."usa.example.com" is a "cleaned" site.
Using HK IP, when I google an Eng keyword, I can see that www.example.com is indexed. When googling a Chi keyword, nothing is indexed - neither the domain or www2 subdomain.
From Google Search Console, it shows a Dell Sonicwall geo ip filtering alert for www2 (Connection initiated from country: United States). GSC data also confirms that www2 has never been indexed by Google.
Questions:
- Is geo ip filtering the very reason why www2 isn't indexed?
- What should I do in order to get www2 to be indexed?
Thanks guys!
