Google didn't indexed my domain.
-
I bought *out.com more than 1 year, google bot even don't come, then I put the domain to the domain parking. what can I do? I want google index me.
-
While this may not have been a parking problem before, it is now. Google intentionally delists parked websites. Put at least something on the site and I'll get it indexed almost immediately. The site doesn't even resolve. Google won't include that in their index.

Thanks.
-
If you can PM me the whole link, I can get it indexed for you in a couple hours - or at least I'd love to try! I know some stuff that always works.
-
Thanks for the anwser peter, I will re-build this site, then "fetch as google". Hope it works.

It looks like the site was indexed at some point in the past, but I can't find it currently. Unfortunately, that could be a sign of quality problems and even potentially a past penalty. It's very hard to prove that from limited information, though.
I agree with Sha that the parked domain issue can be a problem. In the past year, Google has worked to de-index more and more parked domains and try to clean up sites they consider to have no value. Some parked domains still get listed - that's true - but that number is declining all the time. If you want the site to have a fighting chance, I'd put some kind of placeholder page up with at least basic copy and META data. Then submit that to GWT and at least set up your social profiles, etc.
Truthfully, without that, why does it even matter if Google has indexed the site? You're not going to rank for anything useful on a default parked-domain page, and no one could do anything even if they did find you.

Hi Sha, it's not true.
-
many domain was parked is listing in google.
-
I just put this domain to domain parking two weeks, this domain never indexed in google before two weeks either. It's not parking problem.
Forgive my poor english,english it's not my mother language.

No, never, I do nothing for this domain, I usually do linkbuilding for a site after indexed.
-
Hi Bian,
The domain is indexed (it appears in the Google search results), but since the domain is expired and parked, there is nothing else to see...just a parked page.

Have you done anything in the way of linking, social outreach, engagement with sites/forums/bloggers in the industry, etc?
-
I did add it to Google Webmaster Tool, no bot come, no anything happened.
Also I "fetch as google", still not work.

Did you add it in the Google Webmaster Tools?

Trying to get Google to stop indexing an old site!
Howdy, I have a small dilemma. We built a new site for a client, but the old site is still ranking/indexed and we can't seem to get rid of it. We setup a 301 from the old site to the new one, as we have done many times before, but even though the old site is no longer live and the hosting package has been cancelled, the old site is still indexed. (The new site is at a completely different host.) We never had access to the old site, so we weren't able to request URL removal through GSC. Any guidance on how to get rid of the old site would be very appreciated. BTW, it's been about 60 days since we took these steps. Thanks, Kirk

Can subdomains hurt your primary domain's SEO?
Our primary website https://domain.com has a subdomain https://subDomain.domain.com and on that subdomain we have a jive-hosted community, with a few links to and fro. In GA they are set up as different properties but there are many SEO issues in the jive-hosted site, in which many different people can create content, delete content, comment, etc. There are issues related to how jive structures content, broken links, etc. My question is this: Aside from the SEO issues with the subdomain, can the performance of that subdomain negatively impact the SEO performance and rank of the primary domain? I've heard and read conflicting reports about this and it would be nice to hear from the MOZ community about options to resolve such issues if they exist. Thanks.

Site still indexed after request 'change of address' search console
Hello, A couple of weeks ago we requested a change of address in Search console. The new, correct url is already indexed. Yet when we search the old url (with site:www.) we find that the old url is still indexed. Is there another way to remove old urls?

Does content revealed by a 'show more' button get crawled by Google?
I have a div on my website with around 500 words of unique content in, automatically when the page is first visited the div has a fixed height of 100px, showing a couple of hundred words and fading out to white, with a show more button, which when clicked, increases the height to show the full content. My question is, does Google crawl the content in that div when it renders the page? Or disregard it? Its all in the source code. Or worse, do they consider this cloaking or hidden content? It is only there to make the site more useable for customers, so i don't want to get penalised for it. Cheers

How to avoid Google penalties being inherited when moving on with a new domain?
Looking for SEOs who have experience with resetting projects by migrating on to a new domain to shed either a manual or algorithmic penalty. My questions are: For algorithmic penalties, what is the best migration strategy to avoid inheriting any kind of baggage? 301, 302, establish no connection between the two sites? For manual penalties, what is the best migration strategy to avoid inheriting any kind of baggage? 301, 302, establish no connection between the two sites? Any other input on these kind of reset projects is appreciated.

Can't crawl website with Screaming frog... what is wrong?
Hello all - I've just been trying to crawl a site with Screaming Frog and can't get beyond the homepage - have done the usual stuff (turn off JS and so on) and no problems there with nav and so on- the site's other pages have indexed in Google btw. Now I'm wondering whether there's a problem with this robots.txt file, which I think may be auto-generated by Joomla (I'm not familiar with Joomla...) - are there any issues here? [just checked... and there isn't!] If the Joomla site is installed within a folder such as at e.g. www.example.com/joomla/ the robots.txt file MUST be moved to the site root at e.g. www.example.com/robots.txt AND the joomla folder name MUST be prefixed to the disallowed path, e.g. the Disallow rule for the /administrator/ folder MUST be changed to read Disallow: /joomla/administrator/ For more information about the robots.txt standard, see: http://www.robotstxt.org/orig.html For syntax checking, see: http://tool.motoricerca.info/robots-checker.phtml User-agent: *

Pull meta descriptions from a website that isn't live anymore
Hi all, we moved a website over to Wordpress 2 months ago. It was using .cfm before, so all of the URLs have changed. We implemented 301 redirects for each page, but we weren't able to copy over any of the meta descriptions. We have an export file which has all of the old web pages. Is there a tool that would allow us to upload the old pages and extract the meta descriptions so that we can get them onto the new website? We use the Yoast SEO plugin which has a bulk meta descriptions editor, so I'm assuming that the easiest/most effective way would be to find a tool that generates some sort of .csv or excel file that we can just copy and paste? Any feedback/suggestions would be awesome, thanks!

I'm facinated by SEO but the truth is, I don't have the time to do it. Who can I hire?
I'm facinated by SEO but the truth is, I don't have the time to do it. I trust the moz community more than some of those other SEO forums out there so I'm asking you all, where can I go to find a good SEO firm who's affordable enough for a small startup? The next part of the question is, what should I expect to pay for services that will really make a difference? Please don't spam this thread....I seriously just want an honest opinion as to where I can find some credible help.
