Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi, I recently found I can no longer view our web pages in Google's cache. I get 404 errors.

http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache%3Ashop.nordstrom.com%2Fc%2Fwomens-shoes&rlz=1C1GGRV_enUS751US751&oq=cache%3Ashop.nordstrom.com%2Fc%2Fwomens-shoes&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i58.3575j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

I did a fetch and render in Search Console and found our header includes a "cache-control: private" entry.

The 404's started happening recently. Would this response be the culprit? If Google cannot cache the website, is this bad for SEO? On the surface of it, it sounds bad.

Hi!

We just launched our new mobile site and I am trying to get the rel="alternate" tags put on the desktop site. The specs had the tags formatted like this:

They ended up like this:

My developer is telling me the order does not matter. Can anyone confirm? Does the order matter?

Thank You!

Hi. An update for those curious minded folks.

The page is back! I am not sure what happened. I think it may have been caused by a conflict between 2 content management systems. We had the URL in both, one being redirect to the pop-in. Somehow Google picked up on it.

Thank you1

Hi. Thank you!

The Pop-In shop is a section of website that changes content often. The Converse campaign ended in April. The page was fine until the week before last. I did "fetch and render" and got the page fine. I first did this on June 13th and resubmitted the Converse page to Google. I saw the June 17th date as the cache date. Such a mystery!

My URL is: http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/converse

Hi.

The week before last, my top Converse page went missing from the Google index. When I "fetch as Googlebot" I am able to get the page and "submit" it to the index. I have done this several times and still cannot get the page to show up. When I look at the Google cache of the page, it comes up with a different page.

http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/converse

shows:

http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/pop-in-olivia-kim

Back story: As far as I know we have never redirected the Converse page to the Pop-In page. However the reverse may be true. We ran a Converse based Pop-In campaign but that used the Converse page and not the regular Pop-In page.

Though the page comes back with a 200 status, it looks like Google thinks the page is being redirected.

We were ranking #4 for "converse" - monthly searches = 550,000. My SEO traffic for the page has tanked since it has gone missing.

Any help would be much appreciated.
