Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Or maybe somebody on this forum can recommend a forum where someone may know what is going on with my url's? I also have www.www in my url's when I do site:coastlinetvinstalls.com    Yikes!

When I crawl my website I have urls with (#!162738372878) at the end of my urls. I used screaming frog to look check my website and I seen these.

My normal urls are in there too, but each of them have a copy with this strange symbol and number at the end. I used a website builder called homestead to make the website and I seen a bunch of there urls in my crawl as well - http://editor.homestead.com/faq is an example

I recently created a new website with their new website builder  and transferred it to my old domain. However, I didnt know they didnt offer 301 redirects or canonical tags(learned about those afterwards) and I changed my page names. So they recommended I leave the old website published along with the new website.

So if I search my website name on google, sometimes both will show in the results. I just want to sort this all out somehow.

My website is www.coastlinetvinstalls.com

Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Matt

I appreciate you. I figured that was the issue. I wonder if there is anything possible to do to recover that link juice for bing? re-publishing the files from old site? if tat is even possible, I dont know. I would have to ask my  website host/website builder. Im afraid to do anything they recommend at this point.

When I first uploaded the website. I didnt have the exact same website pages. Less pages than before and I named them differently. The company I use (homestead) were no help at all. Just said when your ready to show new website we will switch everything to your original domain. A week or so later I realized the drop. Found an option on the website builder to point original pages to new pages instead of everything going to home page only of new site.

I used a few SEO sites to see if u had issues and it kept saying duplicate pages,ec. And some other issue about slash and trailing slash. Called the website builder(homestead) and they advised that if they unpublished the original site with different URLs that would solve my duplicate issue.

Fast forward to now, I dont get any errors on google and am slowly getting indexed. I also submitted on search console https, and www, and non www. Set preferred domain as www.

For bing. I cant submit my site as https. It never allows verification. So I have the original site as http. Can I let someone go int ok my bing webmaster and see what's going on?

I'm more concerned with bing at the moment.

Tha ke again for any time you guys spend on this issue. I know you probably have larger issues to focus on. But my business is struggling immensely since this whole debacle

hi guys, I hope I can make some sense to you guys with what is occuring with my website. I am an absolute novice here.

I used a drag and drop website 3 or 4 years ago, not sure exactly at the moment when i purchased the domain. however I did pretty well using paid search on both google and bing for quite some time and fairly descent in my area long beach, ca for organic for some of my keywords ( tv install, tv wall mount installation , and tv mounting service). At some point I noticed a drop last year and so this year I decided to try and do a better job on my website by making it mobile friendly and the whole https thing. I basically had to redo it and then after I was finished, the company I use for my website then transferred my website over to original domain.     www.coastlinetvinstalls.com

Now, If i do a search for some of the keywords im trying to rank for on google , I show up on the first page in my area on some days, and on the google maps for my local business in my area.

On bing, however, Im nowhere to be found for any keywords I used to rank for. It use to be the opposite before I did this whole website fix up or whatever you want to call it. I would be on the first page for anything related to my keywords.

Wat happened with bing ? any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
