      Hello all,

      Is anybody experiencing blanck page's in Google's 'Cached' view?

      I'm seeing just the page background and none of the content for a couple of my pages but when I click 'View Text Only' all of teh content is there.

      Strange!

      I'd love to hear if anyone else is experiencing the same.

      Perhaps this is something to do with the roll out of Google's updates last week?!

      Thanks,
      Elias

        School boy error! We've found the problem...

        Turns out there was a div tag that had not been closed which didn't agree with Google's webcache!!

        Note to anyone that has the same problem - validate your HTML!

          Hi Harald,

          We don't use any frames on the site so I'm not sure that this is the cause.

          Although, it has opened up a new path to explore regarding the problem I'm facing.

          Thanks!

            Hi Elias, I think this problem is due to the Use Of Frames & this problem is solved  with  Cache Blank Page  .

            I hope that you will found the solution.

              Hi Marcus,

              Interesting...

              Thanks for the offer but it's a little bit sensitive else I'd love to take you up on it.

              I'll have to do some more digging!

              It's not effected rankings or instant preview - just seems a bit odd!

                  Google Not Indexing Pages (Wordpress)

                  google search console indexed urls indexation

                  Hello, recently I started noticing that google is not indexing our new pages or our new blog posts. We are simply getting a "Discovered - Currently Not Indexed" message on all new pages. When I click "Request Indexing" is takes a few days, but eventually it does get indexed and is on Google. This is very strange, as our website has been around since the late 90's and the quality of the new content is neither duplicate nor "low quality". We started noticing this happening around February. We also do not have many pages - maybe 500 maximum? I have looked at all the obvious answers (allowing for indexing, etc.), but just can't seem to pinpoint a reason why. Has anyone had this happen recently? It is getting very annoying having to manually go in and request indexing for every page and makes me think there may be some underlying issues with the website that should be fixed.

                  Does Title Tag location in a page's source code matter?

                  Currently our meta description is on line 8 for our page - http://www.paintball-online.com/Paintball-Guns-And-Markers-0Y.aspx The title tag, however sits below a bunch of code on line 237 Does the location of the title tag, meta tags, and any structured data have any influence with respect to SEO and search engines? Put another way, could we benefit from moving the title tag up to the top? I "surfed 'n surfed" and could not find any articles about this. I would really appreciate any help on this as our site got decimated organically last May and we are looking for any help with SEO. NIck

                  How to create site map for large site (ecommerce type) that has 1000's if not 100,000 of pages.

                  I know this is kind of a newbie question but I am having an amazing amount of trouble creating a sitemap for our site Bestride.com.  We just did a complete redesign (look and feel, functionality, the works) and now I am trying to create a site map.  Most of the generators I have used "break" after reaching some number of pages.  I am at a loss as to how to create the sitemap.  Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

                  What's the difference between a category page and a content page

                  Hello, Little confused on this matter. From a website architectural and content stand point, what is the difference between a category page and a content page? So lets say I was going to build a website around tea. My home page would be about tea. My category pages would be: White Tea, Black Tea, Oolong Team and British Tea correct? (  I Would write content for each of these topics on their respective category pages correct?) Then suppose I wrote articles on organic white tea, white tea recipes, how to brew white team etc...( Are these content pages?) Do I think link FROM my category page ( White Tea) to my ( Content pages ie; Organic White Tea, white tea receipes etc) or do I link from my content page to my category page? I hope this makes sense. Thanks, Bill

                  A question about RSS feeds and nofollow's

                  With the nofollow tag used very widely on the internet these days I was just wondering about how an RSS feed might help me find a way around it.  Basically my question is this : I post a comment on a blog, it's approved and my comment together with my link(nofollow tag applied) is there. Now when the blogs RSS feed updates, does this nofollow tag get applied to the feed? As far as I can tell it does not - but I'm not too clue'd up on how the feed is generated. Anyone want to help me understand how it works and if what I'm suggesting would be 'a way around the nofollow tag' ? Thanks 🙂
