Why is our page not visible in Google-ranking? www.loseweight.com.
-
using Wordpress as platform. Using the URL gets into the site,- but seems to be non-existent for public... No comments at all, seems to be "invisible"?
-
I searched the name from your profile along with the words lose weight, and I think I found the problem. Are you actually asking about loseweight-longterm.com ? I think we were all looking at the wrong website.
-
Here's what the site loseweight.com looks like in my browser. Did you mis-type the URL perhaps?
-
WOW! Now I´m really confused! I just went toWordpress,found a Theme ("SWIFT", and have gathered information from different sources which I have (in 2 cases) copied - with permission- and (in 5 cases) transformed as my own articles/information. And from there simply tried to make a structure with Pages and Posts. To be honest; I dont even know exactly what a source code means....
I have absolutely no clue how this can coincide with diet.com!? Possbile to find any explanation??
-
Thanks for the links, - it gave me additional insight - even though I feel a little bit "lost in the jungle" - getting somewhat technicl. And I who thought Wordpress was straightforward!
As I have (when in the startup porcess) put all the 7 Posts into a Page- should i then start that page with the Html: http://www.loseweight.com/canonical-version-of-page/" rel="canonical" />?
-
I wonder if you're seeing something different on your end. When I view that site, I see an exact copy of diet.com, with all of the source code being identical.

Hello, and thanks for your comment. None of the content is duplicated from diet.com.But the site idea is based on accumulating/finding good ideas and tips and gather them for helping people to avoid quick-fix weight-reduction programs, and instead back up by research and good articles.
2 articles are there with the permission of the author, can that be the problem?
Another possible problem: All (7) posts are also put into a Page -and (absloutely unintentionally) duplicated? Can that be the problem?
The site is about 6 months, little has been done last 3-4 months, as we were overwhelmde by spam. Put in a couple weeks ago an anti-spam widget,- and after that ZERO comments, zero recognition! ?
We would be very grateful if you could go to our site (rather small) and see if any evident basic problems?

If I search site:loseweight.com on Google, your site is indexed.
However, your site looks to be a duplicate of diet.com. The search engines generally frown upon duplicate content. If diet.com has been up for a long time and this copy of the site just went up, the search engines will view diet.com as the authoritative source for that content and not view loseweight.com as the authority.
Can you give us a little more background about the site and the duplication with diet.com?

SERP Ranking Page Filp Flop Confusion
Hello all, I've been having some weird stuff going on between one of my landing pages and the Homepage. What's happening is, the page showing up in the SERP keeps flip-flopping, but not only that, when it flips to the landing page it will drop 70 positions. Then when it flips back to the homepage it goes back to around position 19. So confused about what is happening. I think the two pages are fighting for the same keyword as they both have the keyword in the meta title. Homepage >( <title>PresenterMedia - PowerPoint Templates, 3D Animations, and Clipart</title> ) Landing Page >( <title>PowerPoint Templates at PresenterMedia.com</title> ) I've seen other answers about the flip-flopping thing, but not sure about dropping 70 positions thing that is going on. Does this huge drop tell me the better page to rank is the homepage instead of the landing page this targeting this keyword? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Why is our login page ranked higher than our homepage?
Hello everyone, When you search "ProtonMail", our Login page always ranks #1 while our homepage ranks #2. We're unsure why this is happening. The PA for our homepage is higher than the login page, and the login page itself basically has zero content except for a login form. We don't want to put the login page on robots.txt, we want to do our best to preserve it so that people can login. However it still does not make sense to us how the login page ranks higher, even though it has a lesser PA. I'd appreciate any help or advice you might have. Thank you.

Using the Google Remove URL Tool to remove https pages
I have found a way to get a list of 'some' of my 180,000+ garbage URLs now, and I'm going through the tedious task of using the URL removal tool to put them in one at a time. Between that and my robots.txt file and the URL Parameters, I'm hoping to see some change each week. I have noticed when I put URL's starting with https:// in to the removal tool, it adds the http:// main URL at the front. For example, I add to the removal tool:- https://www.mydomain.com/blah.html?search_garbage_url_addition On the confirmation page, the URL actually shows as:- http://www.mydomain.com/https://www.mydomain.com/blah.html?search_garbage_url_addition I don't want to accidentally remove my main URL or cause problems. Is this the right way this should look? AND PART 2 OF MY QUESTION If you see the search description in Google for a page you want removed that says the following in the SERP results, should I still go to the trouble of putting in the removal request? www.domain.com/url.html?xsearch_... A description for this result is not available because of this site's robots.txt – learn more.

My beta site (beta.website.com) has been inadvertently indexed. Its cached pages are taking traffic away from our real website (website.com). Should I just "NO INDEX" the entire beta site and if so, what's the best way to do this? Please advise.

Drastic increase of indexed pages correlated to rankings loss?
Our ecommerce website has had a drastic increase in indexed pages, and equal loss of Google organic traffic. After 10/1 the number of indexed pages jumped from 240k to 5.7 million by the end of the year, according to GWT. Coincidentally, the sitemap tops at 14,192 pages, with 13,324 indexed. Organic traffic on some top keyphrases began declining by half after 10/26 and ranking (previously placing in the top 5 spots) has dropped to the fifth page of results. This website does produce session id's (/c=) so we been blocking /c=/ in the robots.txt file. We also have a rel=canonical on all pages pointing at the correct url. With all of this in place, traffic hasn't recovered. Is there a correlation between this spike of indexed pages and the lost keyword ranking? Any advice to investigate and correct this further would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Sub-Page Ranks for a Main Keyword
A sub page now ranks for my main key word (the file name is exact match to the key word) it completely replaced my index page in rankings. Would 301 redirecting the sub-page to my index page (which is more informative and has a whole lot more links pointing towards it) be a good idea or vice versa? Or would optimizing that page (the sub page) be the best way to go (the sub page doesn't have single inbound link pointing to...). This happened about a week ago. Thanks!

Ranked on second page for keyword; now not within first 1000 listings?
Our website www.clientfirstfunding.com ranked 13th for the keyword "structured settlement". After this weekend we are no longer ranking for this keyword at all. We haven't made any changes at all to the site and i haven't gained any backlinks that appear to be spammy. We have held this position for the last several months. I can understand a drop in SERPs but one this drastic is shocking. Any ideas as to what could have caused this would be greatly appreciated.
