Is my content being fully read by Google?
-
Hi mozzers,
I wanted to ask you a quick question regarding Google's crawlability of webpages. We just launched a series of content pieces but I believe there's an issue.
Based on what I am seeing when I inspect the URL it looks like Google is only able to see a few titles and internal links. For instance, when I inspect one of the URLs on GSC this is the screenshot I am seeing:When I perform the "cache:" I barely see any content**:**
VS one of our blog post
- Would you agree with me there's a problem here?
- Is this related to the heavy use of JS? If so somehow I wasn't able to detect this on any of the crawling tools?
Thanks!

Thanks for your help!
I also did a site: "page content of several different pages" and I am getting our pages within the SERP so maybe there's nothing wrong since these pages are indexed. I guess we need to be waiting as you said. -
A few errors is always within margin of what google encounters. Ive seen broken pages completely that would not even render properly anymore but yet still rank. I'm not sure i was just guessing; but perhaps you need to give it a bit of time. I dont know what is going on really, new domains kind of are dampened for a while in order for Google to keep the spammy domains out of the place really.

There are just 6 errors but there's a fatal error though. See screenshot.

Is your page valid with W3C standards? https://validator.w3.org/
I mean if it's a spaghetti of errors then googlebot might encounter issues with that.

I see the most recent page but with only some headings, breadcrumb links, some images but none of the content within
-
When you put the full url in search, and hit the cache button, what does it show? A 1:1 copy of the current page or an outdated version?

Hi Jeroen,
It's been over 2 weeks that we published those pages.

If it's one day, i woud'nt worry about it. If the problem is still there after a week, let us know.

How does google treat dynamically generated content on a page?
I'm trying to find information on how google treats dynamically generated content within a webpage? (not dynamic urls) For example I have a list of our top 10 products with short product descriptions and links on our homepage to flow some of the pagerank to those individual product pages. My developer wants to make these top products dynamic to where they switch around daily. Won't this negatively affect my seo and ability to rank for those keywords if they keep switching around or would this help since the content would be updated so frequently?

Content with Read More..?
How does google see content that's static on page & content that has a "see more" or "read more" tag. Where the content collapses & de-collapses on a mouse click. On a condition that the complete is readable via the source code view as well as crawl-able by spiders?

Video SEO for Google
I was wondering what the prime factors were to make something rank for a video on Google. Does anyone have any suggestions? I think that length may be important, but I don't know what the ideal run time is. Hypothetically for local SEO, would I be better off doing a tag like "Mercedes Buffalo NY" or do individual tags of "Mercedes" and "Buffalo" Thanks!

Content Above The Fold (strategies)
Does anyone know if using a wide responsive layout that brings content well above the fold on big screens (but still pushes it down on small screens or mobile devices) is a good option? We have an adsense site that just got destroyed and I'm assuming its this new Google algo that's looking at sites with too big of ads above the fold.

Need help with duplicate content. Same content; different locations.
We have 2 sites that will have duplicate content (e.g., one company that sells the same products under two different brand names for legal reasons). The two companies are in different geographical areas, but the client will put the same content on each page because they're the same product. What is the best way to handle this? Thanks a lot.
