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?

Google rankings strange behaviour - our site can only be found when searching repeatedly
Hello, We are experiencing something very odd at the moment I hope somebody could shed some light on this. The rankings of our site dropped from page 2 to page 15 approx. 9 months ago. At first we thought we had been penalised and filed a consideration request. Google got back to us saying that there was no manual actions applied to our site. We have been working very hard to try to get the ranking up again and it seems to be improving. Now, according to several serps monitoring services, we are on page 2/3 again for the term "holiday lettings". However, the really strange thing is that when we search for this term on Google UK, our site is nowhere to be found. If you then right away hit the search button again searching for the same term, then voila! our website is on www.alphaholidaylettings.com page 2 / 3! We tried this on many different computers at different locations (private and public computers), making sure we have logged out from Google Accounts (so that customised search results are not returned). We even tried the computers at various retail outlets including different Apple stores. The results are the same. Essentially, we are never found when someone search for us for the first time, our site only shows up if you search for the same term for the second or third time. We just could not understand why this is happening. Somebody told me it could be due to "Google dance" when indices on different servers are being updated, but this has now been going on for nearly 3 months. Has anyone experienced similar situations or have any advice? Many thanks!

Empty Google cached pages.
My little startup Voyage has a tough relationship with Google. I have been reading SEOMOZ/MOZ for years. I am no pro but I understand the basics pretty well. I would like to know why all pages on my main domain look empty in google cache. Here is one example. Other advice is welcome too. I know a lot of my metas and my markup is bad but I am working on it!

How does Google find /feed/ at the end of all pages on my site?
Hi! In Google Webmaster Tools I find *.../feed/ as a 404 page in crawl errors. The problem is that none of these pages exist and they have no inbound links (except the start page). FYI, it´s a wordpress site. Example: www.mysite.com/subpage1/feed/ www.mysite.com/subpage2/feed/ www.mysite.com/subpage3/feed/ etc Does Google search for /feed/ by default or why do I keep getting these 404´s every day?

So I Get An Interior Page To Rank, But Lower. How does that help?
Hi, So, I have a term that would bounce around #3 to 5 for. I make a page some months ago that is solely targeted to that term. And, voila! Google sees the new page as the best result instead of the home page and the new page ranks, but at #9 or #10. Of course the homepage is a stronger page, but the new page is better targeted to that term. Using the handy SEOMoz toolbar, the homepage has a page authority of 59 and the newer interior page has 32. Both are equally functional to my purpose. Part of me just wants to 301 in the interior page to the homepage and forget about it. It would take forever to get that interior page up to a similar page authority through the magic of links. What do you think I should do. I feel like I'm channeling Wile E. Coyote. Thanks! Best...Mike

Google indexing page with description
Hello, We rank fairly high for a lot of terms but Google is not indexing our descriptions properly. An example is with "arnold schwarzenegger net worth". http://www.google.ca/search?q=arnold+schwarzenegger+net+worth&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a When we add content, we throw up a placeholder page first. The content gets added with no body content and the page only contains the net worth amount of the celebrity. We then go back through and re-add the descriptions and profile bio shortly after. Will that affect how the pages are getting indexed and is there a way we can get Google to go back to the page and try to index the description so it doesn't just appear as a straight link? Thanks, Alex
