Why Is this page de-indexed?
-
I have dropped out for all my first page KWDs for this page
https://www.key.co.uk/en/key/dollies-load-movers-door-skates
Can anyone see an issue?
I am trying to find one....
We did just migrate to HTTPS but other areas have no problem

Hi
Yes, there was an issue with my rank tracking software - phew
Thank you

OK great thanks for your help
I'll keep an eye on everything

You are 5th for Heavy Duty Dolly
I don't see what the problem is - the page is doing really well??

This is not an issue.
Its totally normal to have some http indexed pages left. Even more common if the migration is recent. Dont be afraid of this Becky.

Yeap, give it a little time to google re-crawl all the new site. I´d give it nearley a month to consider that google has seen completely the new version of the site, always checking the number of indexed pages in GSC and the resuls appearing for a site: search
Being out of top 100 gives you a clue that you are in the middle of the transition.and for the keyword: _Heavy Duty Dolly; _ I do see your page. Check attached image.
Best luck.

Hi Becky
I just searched in a normal browser so it could be Google skewing the results for you.
For indexed pages

How did you find these http pages?
I did a search in Incognito, but I couldn't see anything myself.
I'll try again, thanks!

Hi
Thanks for this. Yes I've checked in Google Console, I can find the page in indexed pages but the indexed pages are a lot less since migration:
HTTP - indexed 13013, blocked 12,891
HTTPS - indexed - 2814 / blocked robots.txt 5713
Do I just wait?
One keyword example for that page would be #Heavy Duty Dolly' & 'load moving dolly'
Were position 1 now out of top 100.
We're working on page speed/load time for the whole site, but why would it affect that one page so badly?

Hi Becky,
Without knoing those relevant search terms, there's almost no analysis to be done.
I´ve noticed that it took very long time to load, here a GTmetrix report.Remember that migrating to HTTPs makes google to re-crawl all your website's pages and re evaluate all ranking factors.
My advise is to wait a little longer. It might take a few weeks.Also, always monitor the Google Search console profile, there could be some message. Take a look into indexed pages, there could be also that there are less pages indexed now than before migration.
Hope I've helped.
Best luck.

Hi Becky
Load Movers - Pos 3
Wooden dollies - Pos 1Maybe open an incognito browser with history cleared.
I don't see a problem

Nigel
PS You still have 748 http pages indexed but it's only 10% of the total

How long will old pages stay in Google's cache index. We have a new site that is two months old but we are seeing old pages even though we used 301 redirects.
Two months ago we launched a new website (same domain) and implemented 301 re-directs for all of the pages. Two months later we are still seeing old pages in Google's cache index. So how long should I tell the client this should take for them all to be removed in search?

Removing massive number of no index follow page that are not crawled
Hi, We have stackable filters on some of our pages (ie: ?filter1=a&filter2=b&etc.). Those stacked filters pages are "noindex, follow". They were created in order to facilitate the indexation of the item listed in them. After analysing the logs we know that the search engines do not crawl those stacked filter pages. Does blocking those pages (by loading their link in AJAX for example) would help our crawl rate or not? In order words does removing links that are already not crawled help the crawl rate of the rest of our pages? My assumption here is that SE see those links but discard them because those pages are too deep in our architecture and by removing them we would help SE focus on the rest of our page. We don't want to waste our efforts removing those links if there will be no impact. Thanks

I've seen and heard alot about city-specific landing pages for businesses with multiple locations, but what about city-specific landing pages for cities nearby that you aren't actually located in? Is it ok to create landing pages for nearby cities?
I asked here https://www.google.com/moderator/#7/e=adbf4 but figured out ask the Moz Community also! Is it actually best practice to create landing pages for nearby cities if you don't have an actual address there? Even if your target customers are there? For example, If I am in Miami, but have a lot of customers who come from nearby cities like Fort Lauderdale is it okay to create those LP's? I've heard this described as best practice, but I'm beginning to question whether Google sees it that way.

De-indexing product "quick view" pages
Hi there, The e-commerce website I am working on seems to index all of the "quick view" pages (which normally occur as iframes on the category page) as their own unique pages, creating thousands of duplicate pages / overly-dynamic URLs. Each indexed "quick view" page has the following URL structure: www.mydomain.com/catalog/includes/inc_productquickview.jsp?prodId=89514&catgId=cat140142&KeepThis=true&TB_iframe=true&height=475&width=700 where the only thing that changes is the product ID and category number. Would using "disallow" in Robots.txt be the best way to de-indexing all of these URLs? If so, could someone help me identify how to best structure this disallow statement? Would it be: Disallow: /catalog/includes/inc_productquickview.jsp?prodID=* Thanks for your help.

Are there any negative effects to using a 301 redirect from a page to another internal page?
For example, from http://www.dog.com/toys to http://www.dog.com/chew-toys. In my situation, the main purpose of the 301 redirect is to replace the page with a new internal page that has a better optimized URL. This will be executed across multiple pages (about 20). None of these pages hold any search rankings but do carry a decent amount of page authority.

Scrolling Text Old School SEO and hidden index page
We have taken over a site and now find our self looking at the homepage of the site which has hidden scrolling text. A old school way of adding text without leaving loads of paragraphs. I have also removed all links to the index.htm page but somewhere visitors are still coming to this page in there droves. I am considering using a canonical url code but I would rather nip it in the bud. Would love some feedback from some other experts here is the site - http://www.radiatorcentre.com You never stop learning in seo and maybe we can all learn from this example. Thanks
