Dear site owner or webmaster of http://www.enakliyat.com.tr/,
Some of your site's pages may be using techniques that do not comply with Google's Webmaster Guidelines.

Examples of this type of thin affiliate pages, pages, bridge pages, it will automatically be created or copied content.

Generally, if you've been hit by a penalty, blocking with robots.txt isn't enough. You generally either have to remove or improve those pages entirely.
As you can see, most of these pages are still in the index.
When looking at your site, I found many pages like this:
http://www.enakliyat.com.tr/hata.aspx?aspxerrorpath=/manisa-evden-eve-nakliyat-fiyatlari-37
And also "thin" pages without much unique content. If these pages are valuable to your customer, you should consider updating them with fresh, unique content, then file a reconsideration request with Google to lift the penalty.

we all learned about google's guidelines but we really have no idea where is the problem or what cause the problem if you went to our website we have been destroyed all of our duplicate page content and problem's that google ask's us to and now we all think that alright thats all its fixed but when we ask to google to come and check our website again google keep sending us the same and the same message.

If you just want to block them from the index then best practice is usually considered to do it with a robots meta tag rather than the robots.txt file. See here for a better run down of the options and why one is better than the other for various situations: http://moz.com/learn/seo/robotstxt and also a good post here on duplicate/thin content: http://moz.com/blog/fat-pandas-and-thin-content
I would think that in your case you might be able to get enough unique content on those pages (at least the company pages) to make them more acceptable to google. Thinking off the top of my head you could:
- Add information to the page meta and title tags so that the companies location is included, and your brand is also mentioned
- Force the companies to add a proper profile!
- Add some of your own unique content about the company, the areas they service, their specialties etc etc
- once you have better content then encourage users to leave comments/ratings etc
There are not THAT many company pages in your robots.txt so with a bit of brainstorming on the best way to phrase things and to increase unique content on those pages you should be able to come up with a strategy that will allow you with a bit of effort to comply with the google guidelines and also make the pages more user friendly and more informative generally.

You either have to comply to their guidelines or use a different method to grow your business such as using social media.

What server issues might cause temporary and repeated Soft 404/500 Errors that appear to be functioning correctly when checked later from Google Webmaster Tools?
We are experiencing unknown server issues (we think) which are causing Soft 404/500 errors at unpredictable times on 2 websites. When we check on the pages, they’re fine but still show errors in Moz/Search Console. What are some measures we can take to protect from this or figure out what is causing this? Example URL for Soft 404 Error: https://www.advancedtraveltherapy.com/jobs/any/occupational-therapist/any/ Example URL for 500 Error: https://www.advancedtraveltherapy.com/job-detail/ms/physical-therapist/87529740/ Example URL for Soft 404 Error: https://www.advancedtravelnursing.com/search/searchresults.php?jobState=CA&tempType=g&specialties= Example URL for 500 Error: https://www.advancedtravelnursing.com/job/ma/registered-nurse/emergency-room/87108662/

Web Page Dropped Out of Google?
One of our web pages seems to have completely dropped out of Google after featuring on page 1 for a number of years. It can't be a site wide issue as all other web pages are performing as normal. The page is http://www.contractormoney.com/income-protection/ and the key phrase it was performing well for was 'contractor income protection'. Any ideas??

Google index graph duration in Google Webmaster Tools
Hello guys, I wonder, my sites are currently being indexed every 7 days, exactly. At Index Status page in GWT. However, this new site gets updated almost everyday, how can I ask google to index faster and more frequently/almost daily? Is it about SItemap.xml frequency ? I changed it today to Daily. Thanks!

Google Reconsideration Request (Penguin) - Will Google give links to remove?
When Penguin v1 hit, our site took a hit for a single phrase (i.e. "widgets") due to the techniques our SEO company was using (network). We've since had those links cleaned up, and our rankings have not recovered. Our SEO company said they submitted a reconsideration request on our behalf, and that Google denied it and didn't provide which links we needed removed. Does Google list links that need removing if they are still not happy with your link profile?

Tags showing up in Google
Yesterday a user pointed out to me that Tags were being indexed in Google search results and that was not a good idea. I went into my Yoast settings and checked the "nofollow, index" in my Taxanomies, but when checking the source code for no follow, I found nothing. So instead, I went into the robot.txt and disallowed /tag/ Is that ok? or is that a bad idea? The site is The Tech Block for anyone interested in looking.

Remove Deleted (but indexed) Pages Through Webmaster Tools?
I run a blog/directory site. Recently, I changed directory software and, as a result, Google is showing 404 Not Found crawling errors for about 750 non-existent pages. I've had some suggest that I should implement a 301 redirect, but can't see the wisdom in this as the pages are obscure, unlikely to appear in search and they've been deleted. Is the best course to simply manually enter each 404 error page in to the Remove Page option in Webmaster Tools? Will entering deleted pages into the Removal area hurt other healthy pages on my site?
