Hello Anthony!

Thank you for your answer. I have been reading about the rel/prev and the canonical, and I found two different points of view about this. I know the recommendation of Google is the one that you have mentioned above, but as the CMS (Prestashop) is managing the paginated results the way I have shown, that is the one I am using.

The question is, imagine that I have implemented the canonical the way you say before (or the way I did, I doesn't really matter for my question), should I still tell google that "p" parameter is a pagination parameter in Google Webmaster Tools or it's not necessary?

Thank you!

Hello,
We have a website of a furniture company that runs an Adwords campaign. This company has a lot of distributors. They have several objetives:

people explore the online catalog
people visit the distributor page (where they can find the nearest distributor in his/her area)
people share the pictures and info in social media. (For example: pictures in pinterest)
people watch videos
new distributors contact them to be a new distributor

and so on. As this is not an eccommerce website they can not buy

We have created objectives in analytics to meassure those engament results.
My question is how to measure this in Google Adwords...
If I import GA objetives into adwords, I get conversions rates of 350% and even more, and the number of conversions is to high. For example. If one objetive is to visit Distributors page (the one where users can see a map and search for the nearest distributor), I find with a lot of conversions of this type.

I was thinking in importing some objectives and giving them a value in $ and instead of evaluating conversion rates, evaluate ROAS.

But I really would like to know, what you are doing with this kind of companies. How do you measure the campaign success when most of the objetives are measuring engagement.

Please, could you give me any advice?

Thank you!

Hello,

We have a site that manages pagination through parameters in urls, this way:

friendly-url.html
friendly-url.html?p=2
friendly-url.html?p=3
...

We've rencently added the canonical tag pointing to friendly-url.html for all paginated results.

In search console, we have the "p" parameter identified by google.
Now that the canonical has been added, should we still configure the parameter in search console, and tell google that it is being use for pagination?

Thank you!

Hello!

I am now checking a website that has been migrated months ago from osCommerce to Prestashop.
While I was checking crawl errors in search console I found a lot of 404s coming from the last website.

The urls are mainly 4 types:

popup_image.php?pID=125&osCsid=507c27261ba5ca2568f06ce5bad2ebc9
product-friendly-url-pr-125%3FosCsid....
product-friendly-url-p-125%3FosCsid.....
products_new.php?page=228

I've have realized that the parameter pId, and the number that comes after pr- and p- is the product Id in the new website, so I think our team will be able to create an script to redirect those.

My question is: Is it ok to send several urls to the same url?. I mean, the popup_image.php was not the product page, as its name says it's more like a popup page. We don't have now a pop up page for images, so I was thinking to send that url to the product page.

the one with the pr- was product review page

the one with the p- was the product page

I was thinking on redirecting the 3 of them to the product page? Should I? Or should I just redirect the last one (p-) and eliminate the others from the index?

And... the ones with

products_new.php?page=228

I was thinking to redirect all to the page 1 of new products.

Is it ok?

thank you!

Thank you so much!

I noticed the problem with the canonical when I was auditing the site. I think is this is a major issue. Google seems to be omiting that, because it is still showing inner pages in its results. We are not sure about how this can be affecting the entire site rankings, but I think it is not good at all.

We have addressed that and we hope the site improves its rankings soon.

Thank you again for your advices!

Hello,

while I was checking this site;

http://www.disfracessimon.com/disfraces-adultos-16.html

I found that the pagination is working this way

http://www.disfracessimon.com/disfraces-adultos-16.html#/page-2
http://www.disfracessimon.com/disfraces-adultos-16.html#/page-3

and content is being loaded using AJAX. So, google is not getting the paginated results. Is this a big issue or there is no problem?
Should I create a link for See All Products or there is not a big issue?

Thank you!

Hi everybody,

I am now auditing this website www.disfracessimon.com
this website has some issues with canonicals and other things. But right now I have found something that I would like to know your opinion.

When I was checking parts of the content in google to find duplicate content issues I found this:

I google I searched: "Chaleco de streck decorado con botones" and found

First result: "Hombre trovador" is the one I was checking -> Correct
The following results are category pages where the product is listed in.

I was wondering if this could cause any problem related with duplicated content.

Should I no index category pages or should I keep it?
The first result in google was the product page. And category pages I think are good for link juice transfer and to capture some searchs from Google.

Any advice?

Thank you

Hi Umar!

Thank you so much for your great answer and your time! Your advice is great. Trying to take value of the different pages using each one for one query.

But, I was wondering if users wouldn't be confused if the name of the section were Objectives (in secondary navigation) and the H1 be a different sentence. What is your experience with this?

About the use of just one page or different pages to split the content... Honestly, I was thinking about it seriosly, and even was checking other universities to see what they were doing, and I found that some of the, specially the ones that has great visibility in SERP had the content split too. I think it is more related with the domain authority than with the onpage optimization, but it made me doubt.

What happens is that if we place all the content in just one page, we will have pages with more than 2000 words. I think it is to much. What do you think?

Thank you!

Have you tried to implement Ecommerce tracking of Analytics?. You could obtain information about the revenue, quantity, and so on. Of course, that information should be in your order somewhere so that you can take It from there and implement the code.

Good luck!

Hi,

we have a blog site xxxxxxxxxxx.es, that yesterday dissapear from google ranks all of a sudden

it only appears if you write xxxxxxxxx.es

I have checked gogle webmaster tools and there are no manual actions, no messages.

Also, we don't have much links pointing to this site. Webmaster tools show only 319 links.

We don't understand what have happenned. Never see something similar.

What do you think?

Any help would be appreciated.

How do you proceed in this cases? It doesn't seem to be a link problem. How do you know what kind of penalty do you have?

Thank you.

Update:

Hi,

the domain is www.crearcorreoelectronico.es

I have check the majestic seo, ose, and wmt and get the links. We have some links that are not good, but are automatic ones, that some portals generate.

Maybe is something related with the content. I don't know

Thanks

teconsite

Hi,

I have checked those links too. They are automated links. It seems something like malware o something like that. We have not done any links campains never. Zeatliaip, doesn't means anything at least in Spanish, french or any other language I know.

Where have you check the backlinks? I have used wmt, ose and majestic, and it shows that kind of links are less than 87%. 34 links from 22 domains with that achor text, says majestic.

Those links are from bots, malware. But we can't do anything against them placing our link in a lot of formus and also they are doing the same with other websites.

What could I do with that? How do you proceed when your domain is being use by spammy bots?

Thanks

We have changed the design of a website, from an oscommerce site to a new responsive website with customized programming.

After the 301 redirects we have lost 1 to 2 positions in Google Rankings of the most visited categories.

This are real data

Edited: As this table is not shown properly I have added an image

For you to check the old page you can see the old urls in the folder tienda2. For example

http://www.electrorecambio.es/tienda/bosch-m-44.html

can be checked in

http://www.electrorecambio.es/tienda2/bosch-m-44.html

I would like to know if you see any important information that could justify this drop down in rankings

Thanks!!!

Hi again Andy!
I would advice to create different content. They will decide what to do. The portals are quite important, and its authority is higher. This website is too new.

I would tell them both things: different content and also sending that content inmediatly to the index from Google Webmaster Tools.

Thanks for your time!
