Homepage disappeared from Google's index
-
The Title says it all..I just discovered that the Homepage is not in Google's index anymore. Homepage rankings have plummeted, our top keywords are nowhere to be found but most of keywords from deeper pages have dropped just one or two places.
We just change the website design and some content but I strongly believe this is definitely something else due to the fact that it all happened so fast!
There is one thing that I have to mention that might have been caused all this..our email client (Outlook) is using a lot of resources from our server and for the last couple of days the website was down quite a lot.
There are some crawling errors in GWT but the homepage has been crawled because is not there, no other messages.Where should I look for?
-
and in a good position here too.
-
looks like it's up : https://www.google.com/search?q=site:echolimousine.com
-
Done, no warnings, everything looks good.
-
No alerts at all, no warnings of any kind..we have been hit by Panda 2.0 but since then we managed to stop the fall until a few days ago when the homepage disappeared from Google's index.
-
Jump in to GWT and fetch the homepage as Gogole Bot and submit it tot he index. See if you get any errors or warnings there

Matt cutts just uploaded a video about how your rankings may be affected if your website was down during a short/long term period. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4eYJuT0yGrI&feature=em-uploademail).
HAve you received any message in gwt alerting you of any bad practice? If it's about links, spam, site down, normally they warn you and you'll have a short period of time to fix it. Be sure that you haven't followed any linkbuilding practice that may have hurt you since I see in majesticseo that you got a lot of links compared to the referring domains, have you bought sponsored reviews? have you got many sitewide links? affiliates with followed links, make a complete audit of your backlink portfolio

Google Tag Manager breaking integration
Using Live Chat's (www.livechatinc.com) Google Analytics integration was populating events and virtual pageviews into my analytics account. I've since added Tag Manager and moved my analytics tracking code into there, but since doing so, the integration no longer seems to work as there is no population of either events or pageviews anymore. Anyone else had any experience of something similar? Any other suggestions (beyond not using GTM for analytics code anymore)? I was considering setting up the event tracking code manually in GTM, but not really sure how to do so seeing as I'm not sure what to fire the different events on. This is the live chat JS code:

Setting up Google Analytics for Subsites
I currently have one main .com site and am planning on launching geo-location subsites .co.uk, .com.au, .ru, etc... Traffic will flow between both sites and some of the content on the subsites will be duplicate and therefore include a canonical tag to the main site. I want to set up GA to capture who is going to the subsites and vice versa and correctly capture crossover traffic. Any advice on implementing advanced analytics directly (or links to sources that will direct me the right direction for this project)

High bounce rate from Google Shopping
Hi Mozzers, I'm carrying out some analysis on our eCommerce site and the bounce rate from Google Shopping is well above the site average at 60%. Our shopping feed is submitted to Google every morning so we know that images and prices are up-to-date which would obviously cause a high bounce rate. Any ideas on what might cause this? Is it normal for Google Shopping to produce a high bounce rate? Cheers guys!

Impressions in Google Analytics
I am trying to compare SERP impressions in Google Analtyics between two different time periods. I want to compare the last two months, with the previous two months. Now this works fine when I go to Traffic Sources > SEO > Queries. Our analytics has been set up since early last year, so I cannot understand why, for a couple of weeks at the start of the previous two months, it is showing that I have less than 10 impressions per day, then in one day, it jumps to 22,000 impressions, and starts to show 'real' information after that... Very frustrating when I am trying to show how effective my work has been. Can anyone shed any light on this?
