Google Fetch and Render - Partial result (resources temporarily unavailable)
-
Over the past few weeks, my website pages have been showing as partial in the Google Search Console. There are many resources/ files (js, css, images) that are 'temporarily unreachable'. The website files haven't had any structural changes for about 2 years (it historically has always shows as 'completed' and rendered absolutely fine in the search console).
I have checked and the robots.txt is fine as is the sitemap. My host hasn't been very helpful, but has confirmed there are no server issues. My website rankings have now dropped which I think is due to these resources issues and I need to clear this issue up asap - can any one here offer any assistance? It would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan

Can anyone suggest any answers or has anyone had similar issues? I continue to monitor the site via fetch and render and the issues remain the same - lots of images, css and js files 'Temporarily Unreachable' (yet they do exist and the link can be clicked on). The website functions fine otherwise.
As I say, I have changed website hosts and it is still the same. This is really affecting my rankings and if anyone has any clues I would be most grateful.
Many thanks,
Dan

Hi Martijn,
Thank you for your response!
The results in terms of the fetch and render for a page of the website looks different everytime. Sometimes it is images that are "Temporarily Unavailable' , sometimes it is css/ js files and sometimes both. However, there is never a 'Completed' result and always some form of 'Partial result. All the files/ images are reachable when you click on them, however. Nothing is blocked in terms of robots.
From time to time the entire page itself says 'Temporarily Unreachable', although it comes back to 'partial' after waiting a few hours.
I have contacted my web hosts who haven't offered much help. I actually changed web hosts and paid for a more expensive, faster server (as I assumed the server was taking too long for Google)!
However, the results are the same, so really struggling to understand why this is happening. As before, the robots.txt file is fine without any blockingCould you explain what you mean in terms of crawling with the GoogleBot User Agent?
Having had a quick scan around different forums, it seems there are quite a few websites having a similar problem, but there doesn't seem to be a solution so far.
Thanks again for your time.

Hi Dan,
Are there any more insights into what the screenshot actually looks like when the resources aren't being loaded? I would, in addition, try to crawl the site/page with the GoogleBot User Agent and see for yourself what happens. In some cases it could be that your CDN or server is blocking requests that are often done, obviously, this shouldn't happen with Google but it wouldn't be the first time that I see GoogleBot being blocked by a server.
Martijn.

Google News results ...can it be SEOed?
Hello Everyone. I simply wanted to know if anyone had some useful insight on what it takes for a legitimate website to appear within the Google News results. I have rarely, or ever, had to dabble in this kind of SEO, but after coming across a situation with a perfectly legitimate website, I'm now scratching my head. The site in question is a very well established website, with 0 "seo" done to it. All links organic, all traffic legit and they have VERY strong social media presence. The site's current DA is 50. Its a 3 letter domain. Some of the points I believe are important quantity and quality of content (% of aggregated vs actually original content) overall % of "news" content vs rest of the site content authors/writers credentials (how would Google evaluate the authority of a writer, so his/her content is newsworthy?) overall site authority rich snippet and code needed to be indexed? I think rel publisher or rel author tags have something to do with it? making sure to have basic SEO in place: canonical tag, unique headers, etc. What am I missing? They have one particular competitor that seem to be ranking for almost everything news related, while being a similar site in content and authority, however they are nowhere. They have submitted to Google News before (not even sure what that means) but have failed to be included -- does this put a "stain" on them for any reason or impede the possibility of being indexed in the Google News results in the future? ANY input is appreciated.

Appearing in Universal Results drops us from Organic Results
Hi all, Has anyone noticed that achieving an appearance in the Universal Results (7 box) forced their previous organic ranking to drop out completely for that keyword? I thought Google would still show us in Universal AND Organic. Is this typical? Here's what happened: Last Week: Ranked no. 6 in standard organic results for specific keyword (but 7 box universal results appear ahead of us between position 3 and 4 and we're not listed) This Week: We added ourselves to Google Places a few weeks ago and this week we suddenly appear in the desirable 7 box Universal result, which is much higher and better ranking - great! But interestingly we notice at the same time our normal organic ranking at no.6 has dropped out completely (-50 in moztool). Is it an either/or for Organic vs. Universal or can you ever keep ranking in both?

What are realistic goals for local serch results?
I have a brand new domain, 2 months old, and am just finishing design. What are realistic goals for the 1rst year in local search results? My competition appears to be the local directories. Manta, yellowpages, angieslist, BBB and so on. Is it realistic to expect to eventually outrank them for the local search terms? (City Service Keyword) If so, what is a realistic time frame for someone putting in 10 to 15 hours a week on SEO, Including content creation. This was the humbling report I just ran. Looks like my choices are to beat them or pay them excessive amounts of money. http://pro.seomoz.org/tools/keyword-difficulty/results.html?commit=Run+Report&date=2013-02-19&engine_id=96&keywords=Lakeville+snow+plowing&utf8=✓
