Google Console returning zero data
-
Hi. I verified my site both www. and non www. with google search console a while back and yet for neither domain am I seeing any data at all under Search Appearance and under index status (under google index) it is saying 0 pages indexed even though I can see in google search there are over 116.
Any idea why this might be?
Thanks

Hi Cosi,
Check also if you have registered the right protocol of your domain http vs. https or if you have register the right subdomain (maybe you're not using www or non-www, but another subdomain?) - definitely looks as the type of situation where you haven't register the property with the "right" name and the final location of your site where your content and information is (maybe you're redirecting to another place?) if you don't see any data for it, neither indexation, crawling or search visibility.
Another hypothesis would be that you still have very very few pages and that's why you don't obtain any data for the search visibility, however, you should be able to see it on the crawling and indexation reports.
The final one would be that you're blocking all crawling and indexation from happening on your site and therefore you don't have any. Take a look at the robots.txt configuration, also any potential blockage at other levels, such as server level in htaccess or even with the noindex meta robots tags (although that would block the indexation and not the crawling).
Thanks,
Aleyda

the fetch as google redirection is a bit suspicious..
is there a redirection from www to non www version for the domain? -
Hi,
Yes for both the www. domain and non www domain - the sitemap is there and under the sitemap report it says 107 pages submitted and 80 indexed. Robots.txt file is read and when I look for the main pages under Fetch as Google it comes back with successful redirects though not sure why they are redirects? But in spite of all that working - it is still returning 0 for pages indexed under the index status. The www. domain has been in search console for over a year. The non www domain I only verified yesterday.
Thanks

Hi - that makes sense but I also am seeing 0 pages as being indexed by google in the index status report - how can that be right?
And yes im using the search console report - so where that link takes you
Thanks

Hi Cosi
Search appereance can be clean and empty from data, for example if you do not have any html improvement suggestions from google or any structured data, this section will be virtually empty.
Can you see any data under Search Traffic? for example try this url:
https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/search-analytics

Why does Google pick a low priority page on my site?
Hi Guys. One of my pages ranks quite well for "mid year diaries 14-15" on Google. The problem is it's a really specific product page (A4, Hardback, day-to-a-page diary I think). It would be much better for the user to land on our mid-year diaries category, not really deep into the site. Why is Google prioritizing this product page over our general 'mid year diaries' category? Especially when the category would relate to the search more accurately? I work for TOAD diaries and I think our page rank is 10 for this search. Eagerly awaiting some insight 🙂 Thanks in advance everyone! Isaac.

Google is showing product rating of 1-star in search results when average rating is 3.7 - 4 stars
When searching for the brand name "SteriPEN", the #3 listing on the SERP is for one of SteriPEN's "Adventurer Opti" product at REI.com, On the SERP for this search, the REI listing for Adventurer Opti product displays showing the product as 1-star based on a product review from 2010. What we don't understand is the fact that the product history has a 3.7 to 4.2 rating on most websites. Why would a product with so many reviews and established history have 1 review that drives the 1-star rating from such a prominent retailer? Makes no sense. Any suggestions as to whom we might be able to contact for help with this is greatly appreciated. edit?usp=sharing
