301 Redirect and Google...
-
Hi all
Recently, Google has indexed the landing page url for our product differently. This has just happened.
So now, when you used search for "DocRead" you would find the top result being :
"http://www.collaboris.com/products/policy-and-procedure-management-software" which is what i want.
However, now it's indexing it as
"http://www.collaboris.com/products" this page is simply a redirect to our product page as it's part of the menu.
If I look in fiddler when requesting http://www.collaboris.com/products I can see its doing a 301 redirect, which is fine.
Why is Google storing the wrong url ?
I also noticed we dropped in our rankings quite significantly last week.
-
I just tested it and found your new pages returning a 200, what status code was it returning before
-
I have actually bit the bullet and now created a simple landing page at http://www.collaboris.com/products so there should be no confusion.
Would be interested to hear peoples thought.s

Is It Possible to Be Punished By Google For Getting Too Many Links?
Hello, My team and I have been trying to get high-quality back-links by seeking other sites and blogs. We were ranking really well and then all of a sudden, our rankings dropped dramatically. We were only using backlinks and good ones at that, yet, our rankings have dropped. Is it possible for google to punish us for getting too many too fast? If not, what could be some of the other problems?

Is There Value in Disavowing Links if you there is No Google Penalty?
I have just started using Link Detox to determine if our clients have links/domains pointing to their sites that could be harming them in organic search. In a few cases 7%-9% of links have been flagged as a high priority to be disavowed. I would be interested in your opinion on the following: If your site does not have a Google penalty is there an advantage to disavowing pages that have been flagged as high risk? When I go to those pages they look spammy and have no real value other than an inbound link. If a client acquires another website/company and that website is now 301 redirected to the client's site, would "high risk" inbound links from the acquired company cause a problem for my client? A client has taken down content from their site that was completely unrelated to their current business. Is there a benefit in disavowing those links to the old content that are deemed by Link Detox as being high risk? Thank you, Rosemary
