Hi again,

I would reach out directly to Jonh Muller or Gary Illes via twitter directly. I know some people got their things solved pretty fast with their help.

Hi there,

I have a similar problem with my title tag. Google appended ":" to my title, but I do not even have that sign in my title. I do not have any schema markup on that site at all, so I do not think it has something to do with Schema Mark-Up. I tried to reindex and change the title, of that page but ":" does not go anywhere.  Btw when you have rebranded the website? It is possible that Google needs more time to update the databases.

Hi Douglas Cawley,

Try to reach them via Twitter or Facebook.

Hi Eric,

You can try to add unique content to each page and request reindexing via GSC.

You should only use a disavow tool if you are losing traffic or got a penalty. The Disavow tool is working, but it takes time for Google to stop counting these links. As Paddy said, these links will always stay, you cannot remove them by disavowing them.

You can create specific landing pages and target states, city or counties.

For example, if you want to rank in California for web design you should create something like this.

website.com/service/web-design/los-angeles

website.com/service/web-design/san-francisco

website.com/service/web-design/san-diego

Then you would try to rank each for " Web design company in Los Angeles"

I hope this helps

Thanks for the update.

You are welcome!

Hi there,

I would only keep the content that is related to the business unless you are getting a lot of traffic from these articles that are not related to heating systems and gas cylinders.  Getting traffic it is always good to show Google that your site is interested enough to get visitors. If you decide to remove these blog posts, I would check if any of these irrelevant posts have any backlinks before you remove them. If they do have some links should try to redirect them to relevant pages that you would on your site or just keep them because of the high-quality links. It is a good idea to set up these deleted pages to 410 ( Page Gone)  so Google will remove from the index much faster.

Hi there,

You should move your blog from the subdomain to a folder on your root domain. For example blog.website.com -> website.com/blog. Since Google treats all subdomains as separate entities or sites you are partially losing  SEO equity because it is getting distributed between subdomain and root domain.
