Google blocks certain articles on my website ... !
-
Hello
I have a website with more than 350 unique articles, Most of them are crawled by Google without a problem, but I find out certain articles are never indexed by Google.
I tried to rewrite them, adding fresh images and optimizing them but it gets me nowhere.
Lately, I rewrite an article of those and tried to (fetch and render) through Google Webmasters, and I found this result, can you tell me if there is anything to do to fix that?

Thanks a lot Andy for your kind response and I will email you indeed.
Bit I magically noticed after latest Google update a few days ago, some blocked articles shows now on top 3 results right away without even the normal ascending time (I usually see my articles on the second page 2 days after publishing them for targeted keyword and during 2 to 3 weeks they jump to top 3 results but it doesn't happen for some certain blocked article and they show right away on top 3 results now)

OK so another thing to check, although I suspect these are OK, but the pages aren't orphaned somehow? You can get to them through a logical set of clicks through the site and don't have a noindex anywhere?
With the image you gave above, it is a bit awkward to diagnose without actually seeing them myself.
If you want to email me an example, I will gladly take a look for you. info at iqseo.org

Hello Andy and thanks for your reply
1 - Yes I 've tested it in robots.txt tester and it says "Allowed"
2 - The blocked resources are on my website, and its all general resources, I see other pages indexed with same resources without a problem, those are images of the website Theme so its not something in particular for this article

Have you actually tested this in robots.txt tester in Search Console? This is usually one of the main causes.
Without being able to actually see the pages themselves, it is a bit awkward, but I would start there.
Also, are the blocked resources actually on your site or somewhere else?

D.A. and Link Juice from certain websites
Hello, i'm a bit confused concerning some link buildings. What happens with backlinks from blogs coming from powerful domains such as abc.yahoo.com or abc**.over-blog.com or abc.blogspot.com?** Meaning, everyone that creates a blog over there will have a PA of 0/100 but a DA of 80 or 90/100.

Will Google consider DA on these cases? I'm confused because it can't be that simple that someone creates a website, and after some months they will have like 10 PA but still the 90/100 DA and their links can be a powerful backlink. Can you explain me how Google sees that? So, if I have a link coming from a blog on those domains will it be better than any other with same PA but lower DA?0 -
Website not coming up properly on Google
Hello, our website (http://www.roguevalleymicro.com/index.php) is not coming up properly on Google search (for example, when you search for Rogue Valley Microdevices on Google). We believe that there is something wrong with the website source code, and Google cannot index it properly. However, your Crawl Test results did not indicate any such problems. Can someone help us with some advice please?

Google showing high volume of URLs blocked by robots.txt in in index-should we be concerned?
if we search site:domain.com vs www.domain.com, We see: 130,000 vs 15,000 results. When reviewing the site:domain.com results, we're finding that the majority of the URLs showing are blocked by robots.txt. They are subdomains that we use as production environments (and contain similar content as the rest of our site). And, we also find the message "In order to show you the most relevant results, we have omitted some entries very similar to the 541 already displayed." SEER Interactive mentions that this is one way to gauge a Panda penalty: http://www.seerinteractive.com/blog/100-panda-recovery-what-we-learned-to-identify-issues-get-your-traffic-back We were hit by Panda some time back--is this an issue we should address? Should we unblock the subdomains and add noindex, follow?

Infographics and articles on the same page
Hi i'm currently designing an infographic and the infographic is based on a article my writer had created. I was thinking of ways in which i can add the article and infographic so they complement each other. Obviously the infographic is more in-depth then the article as it contains much more information. The infographic is designed to go viral. I was thinking of putting the info graphic on the top of the page and the written content below it. This way the person looking at the infographic can scroll down to find the more in-depth written discussion/article on the topic. Also from a SEO perspective, the search engines can index the written content (as it won't be able to index the the infographic since it's a image. What do you guys think is the best approach for this situation? Regards, Matt
