Google not crawling the website from 22nd October
-
Hi, This is Suresh. I made changes to my website and I see that google is unable to crawl my website from 22nd October. Even it is not showing any content when I use Cache:www.vonexpy.com. Can any body help me in knowing why Google is unable to crawl my website. Is there any technical issue with the website? Website is www.vonexpy.com
Thanks in advance.

Looks like its not just us - this is starting to get more attention https://www.seroundtable.com/google-cache-dated-19497.html

Our home page was cached today, but many of the pages on our site haven't been indexed since late October. It looks like this is a widespread issue.
-
I can see 90% of the pages I look at havent been cached since 22nd Oct, and I mean pages picked at random from hotels.com, booking.com and other big sites - is there a wider google cache issue going on?
-
I understand but we are not talking about black hat seo, just to crawl a site that hasn´t be crawled since october. And we all already know that sometimes Google says half-truths. I was suggesting to do something knew to get different results that he already had. Anyway i appreciate your point of view.

Google the queries: black hat seo, link buying. Click the first 100 results for both + read the guide on SEO by Google and then you probably get the point ;-).

Why not Martijn? That tool has helped me several times not in the same case but for backlinks.

You are not being serious?

Thanks Martin,
I made some design changes to my website. When you check the cache you an see that the website content is not crawled as the website contains some java script links. I replaced them with text links. So now it should crawl and index the website even though there is no new content. As the old spider is unable to crawl the website because of the image based links. And also I submitted the sitemap to webmaster tools only after the design change. It just indexed all the 30 urls 2 days back.@ Hemani I already submitted to webmaster tools and used fetch as google on the site but still there is no crawling.

Hi Suresh,
It looks like there are no problems on the site itself that prevent Google from crawling it, so that's a good thing. As the sitemap only consists of 31 (different) URLs, chances are that Google found out that the pages aren't any different any time that they crawled the pages. If that is really the case then I wouldn't mind so much about Google not crawling the content every now and then.

This is a normal problem and I have accord this quite a few times on my blog. The best way to do that is to submit your sitemap in Google Webmaster tool and get social tweets and social likes on your website and you will see Google will start crawling your website in days!
Hope this helps!

What is a good crawl budget?
Hi Community! I am in the process of updating sitemaps and am trying to obtain a standard for what is considered "strong" crawl budget? Every documentation I've found includes how to make it better or what to watch out for. However, I'm looking for an amount to obtain for (ex: 60% of the sitemap has been crawled, 100%, etc.)

Will Google Continue to Index the Page with NoIndex Tag Upon Google +1 Button Impression or Click?
The FAQs for Google +1 button suggests as follows: "+1 is a public action, so you should add the button only to public, crawlable pages on your site. Once you add the button, Google may crawl or recrawl the page, and store the page title and other content, in response to a +1 button impression or click." If my page has NoIndex tag, while at the same time inserted with Google +1 button on the page, will Google recognise the NoIndex Tag on the page (and will not index the page) despite the +1 button's impression or clicks send signals to Google spiders?

How do you measure content on a website?
I never thought of this question before. Maybe because i didn't focus myself on content but only on optimizing existing content from clients. So how do you measure the content on a specific page?
