Indexed, but not shown in search result
-
Hi all
We face this problem for www.residentiebosrand.be, which is well programmed, added to Google Search Console and indexed. Web pages are shown in Google for site:www.residentiebosrand.be. Website has been online for 7 weeks, but still no search results.
Could you guys look at the update below?
Thanks!

Hi Nigel,
The website https://www.residentiebosrand.be/ is supposed to be ranking on 'residentie bosrand'. I know authority plays a big part in ranking on keywords. But other sites which are not as relevant as this one rank higher.
Do we just have to wait for the website to rank on this keyword?

I think if you are going to ask a question like this them be specific what the problems are. We all spend a lot of time trying to help people and are then made to feel bad because we haven't understood the question.
Also, it's in a language I can't speak.
So post up a few keywords and the pages you expect to rank for and maybe we can see what the problem is.
Cheers
Nigel

Do understand that a lot more goes into determining search results than just indexation of the words on a web page. Certainly, G uses those words to understand what search terms the site is relevant for but other factors are in play too--like authority, as in your site's authority and that of your competitors.
Among other things, authority takes into account the site's age, backlinks and engagement history and those are factors on which a new site can't easily out-compete older, more established sites--even if the older sites are not dialed into exactly the same search terms.

Hi guys,
Don't get me wrong. The site is indexed and Google shows search results. The actual question here is why the website is not ranking on the keywords it's supposed to be ranking: 'residentie bosrand'. How come we don't find the website in the search results, while these are the main keywords on the website's URL, page, ... ?
Best regards.

It's coming back with 25 results and quite a few PDF files.

Conversal, it would be helpful if you could provide a couple of search terms that you think the site should be showing up in the search results for but isn't.

Hi Conversal
There are search results - they are just not showing in SEMrush and Google takes a while to report them
Regards
Nigel

Keywords are indexed on the home page
Hello everyone, For one of our websites, we have optimized for many keywords. However, it seems that every keyword is indexed on the home page, and thus not ranked properly. This occurs only on one of our many websites. I am wondering if anyone knows the cause of this issue, and how to solve it. Thank you.

How can I make sure a desktoppage is shown in the (desktop) search results instead of the mobile page?
When I search for my brandname, the mobile version of the customer support page is shown in the (desktop) results. We use a m.example.nl mobile webpage. To try to solve the problem, we’ve adjusted the following: Made sure the homepage is marked according to schema.org Homepage expanded with textual content and headings containing our brandname Removed all the textual content from the mobile customer support page Added the mobile customer support page to the mobile sitemap What can we change more in settings/marking/sitemap, to make sure our desktop homepage is shown in the brandname results?

Are all tabs the result of JS?
Hey all, Bit of a novice here, so bare with me. We have a page that has a lot of content in a tabular format that struggles to rank. I created a similar page, without the tabular format, which vastly outranks it, despite having a miniscule backlink profile in comparison. Now, I've always been under the impression that anything interactive on a website, like tabs, are the result of JS. However, I can't see any JS in the code (but as mentioned, I'm far from an expert). Code below. Description insert copy here, click on [insert anchor text](/media/MODULES AVAILABLE 2017-18.xlsx)

Indexing product attributes in sitemap
Hey Mozzers! I'm battling a few questions about the sitemap for my ecommerce store. Could you help me out? Is it necessary to include your product attributes in the sitemap? I'm not sure why it would matter to have a sitemap that lists everything in the color cherry. Also, if the attributes were included in the sitemap, would that count as duplicate content for the same products to show up in multiple attributes? Is there any benefit to submitting the sitemaps individually? For example, submitting /product-sitemap.xml, /product_brand-sitemap.xml versus just /sitemap.xml? Any other best practices for managing my ecommerce sitemap, or great resources, would be very helpful. Thank you! a1vUz

Index problems
“The website http://www.vaneyckshutters.com/nl/ does not show in the index of Google (site:vaneyckshutters.com/nl/). This must be the homepage in the Netherlands. Previously, the page www.vaneyckshutters.com was redirected to /nl/. This page is accessible now with a canonical tag to http://www.vaneyckshutters.com/nl/ in the hope to let /nl/ be indexed. When we look at the SERPS for keyword ‘shutters’, the page http://www.vaneyckshutters.com/ is shown in Google.nl on #32 and in Belgium #3. Problem & question: Why is it that /nl/ has not been indexed properly and why is it that we rank with http://www.vaneyckshutters.com on ‘shutters’ instead the/nl/ page?”

How many serp results for a domain.
I thought this one was carved into stone, max number of results from the same domain in SERP is... two. Or... three?! I was searching for some familiar keywords and found three results from the same domain, isn't that... unusual?

Why are Google search results different if you are log'd into Google or not?
I get different results when I'm log'd into my Google account associated with my website than if I'm not. The same country is occurring. So how can I rely on the google results I'm seeing? For instance my site is page 1 with the improvements I made based on SEOMOZ if I'm log'd in. Yet I'm not on the first 25 pages if I'm not logged in.
