I searched Google and found this note from Google which may happen post server migration

It’s normal to see a temporary drop in Googlebot’s crawl rate immediately after the launch, followed by a steady increase over the next few weeks, potentially to rates that may be higher than from before the move.
This fluctuation occurs because we determine crawl rate for a site based on many signals, and these signals change when your hosting changes. As long as Googlebot does not encounter any serious problems or slowdowns when accessing your new serving infrastructure, it will try to crawl your site as fast as necessary and possible.
Add on Thompson Paul - Appreciate - yes its a good suggestion, will see to include sitemap
@ Cyrus
Certain pages
Earlier it was less than 4 hrs - but now its taking around 24 hrs - basis the data been updated in Search engine result just found today - i thought it was not getting updated at all
Fetch & render - no issues, Its submitting. No errors in GWT
Tested speed test - though no noticeable improvement in loading time - but no unnessary page size or load time been increased too
I was wondering - can it be a temporary phenomena - where crawl speed is slow and later on will come back to normal. Its less than 72 hrs when server been migrated
Google Search Console Crawl Stats is last updated for 16th June - so unable to figure it out from there. No errors in webmaster
@Anirban
Thanks, no errors in GWT Tools. Loading time - could not observe a change. As per Gtmetrics - tested - is well within limits. Pages with dynamic content are not getting updated in Search Engine - which earlier was happening on immediate basis
Hello,
I have just performed doing server migration 2 days back
All's well with traffic moved to new servers
But somehow - it seems that w.r.t previous host that on submitting a new article - it was getting indexed in minutes. Now even after submitting page for indexing - its taking bit of time in coming to Search Engines and some pages wherein content is daily updated - despite submitting for indexing - changes are not getting reflected
Site name is - http://www.mycarhelpline.com
Have checked in robots, meta tags, url structure - all remains well intact. No unknown errors reports through Google webmaster
Could someone advise - is it normal - due to name server and ip address change and expect to correct it automatically or am i missing something
Kindly advise in . Thanks
Hi
While downloading attachment of backlinks from open site explorer - facing error
that something went wrong and reported to moz tech team
can you resolve it pl
Had i been on your side - i would have thought of adding relevant articles - user friendly content and social fees
Search Engine will themselves crawl on site from 1 week to 4 weeks - but crawling or having A grade does not guarantee you a place on top - 10. It may take time and till that happens - you can focus on doing just one thing
Adding on links or backlink should always be secondary and be performed once the site has recognizable user friendly content
Hello Trenton,
There are several Million sites in web space as of now and think of hundred multi trillion pages
If a site doing wrong and you doing correct - patience rewards. Sooner or later - you will see rewards coming in your favor only
Warren Buffet said a famous quote (though all his quotes are famous) - "No mater how great are your efforts in business - some things just take time. You cant produce a baby in 1 month time by making 9 women pregnant"
So - my advise is to ignore that poor strategy adopted by competition or even that site - sooner or later it will get on to a dead end. If you still want it to happen fast
you may submit an anti-spam report to Google about that web page :- https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/spamreportform?hl=en&spamurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.co.in%2Fwebhp%3Fsourceid%3Dchrome-instant%26espv%3D210%26ie%3DUTF-8

Dont make them noindex, rather use canonical tag.
Using noindex - will make the page out of search engines index.But using canonical - It not only gives a strong indication to search Engines that the canonical page is the best page and rest are duplicates, But, it also passes on existing page Authority from duplicate pages to the canonical page
Trust it help !!
Hi Gregory,
Its not a backslash (), rather a forward slash (/) you are referring to
The forward slash indicates that the url is ended. This tells the search engine: the request stops here.
Search Engines as correctly said by Chris does not differentiate between url with forward slash or without it - both are same. However, its advisable to have url ended with with forward slash to speed up the loading. To validate this - refer this excellent article - http://webdesign.about.com/od/beginningtutorials/f/why-urls-end-in-slash.htm
I can refer a quote - probably can be helpful to you
Q: People are all about links but then there's a concern about linking to bad neighborhoods. How do you identify bad neighborhoods? Should you nofollow them or stay away totally?
Matt Cutt Response: Use your gut. Trading links is natural and it's natural to have reciprocal links. At some level, natural reciprocal links happen, but if you do it way too often, it looks artificial. My advice is to go with your gut and if you're worried, you can use nofollow.
Your rel canonical is put up wrongly
Its been set up as - http://www.corpsyn.com/”http://www.corpsyn.com”
which is incorrect
Visit this url:- view-source:http://www.corpsyn.com/
Click on stylesheet url - it will land you correctly. Click on canonical url - it will land you on wrong page
Canonical page is for search engines and implies the 'best url to index in basis the page content'
So - if there is this url you are on to and also has canonical tag attached to it - Its no harm. Generally, its been used to avoid duplicate pages by marking canonical url in header on the duplicate pages. In event of doing so, even if original page has same canonical url - its no harm.
Hi - If you have too many thin pages developed on site - the best way as suggested by Chris too - is 'noindex, follow'
There is no negative Impact, rather helps Search Engines to understand site hierarchy better - by been allowed to crawl and index on rather pages with full of content. The follow tag will pass on all link authority to internal links. Only the page will be deindexed from search engines
Its in a way good - as no user will land on to pages, with very little or no content - thus avoiding single page bounces too
Hello Sir,
My point of view for #1 is - I dont think that there will be any drop in SERP position of the existing article.
This however is based on presumption of Search Ranking of News based articles. Herein, Search Engines shows an article both in news snippet and as standalone article. Implies - An existing article is shown 2 times
So, on similar lines - if the article is picked as Indepth Article, it ideally should continue to show - once on its existing rank and second under Indepth Article Snippet
Point # 2 - Unaware off. Have not seen it !!
Hello,
We are soon going to upgrade the cms to latest version along with new functionlaities - the process may take anywhere from 4 week to 6 weeks.
may suggest - we need to work on live server, what we have planned
take exact replica of site and move to a test domain, but on live server
Block Google, Bing, Yahoo - User-agent: Google Disallow: / , User-agent: Bing Disallow: / User-agent: Yahoo Disallow: / in robots.txt
Will upgrade CMS and add functionality - will test the entire structure, check url using screaming frog or xenu and move on to configure the site on original domain
The process upgradation and new tools may take 1 - 1.5 month....
Concern is that despite blocking Google, Bing & Yahoo through User agent disallow - can still the url can be crawled by the search engines - if yes - it may hurt the original site as will read on as entire duplicate or is there any alternate way around.. Many thanks
