Google not indexing my website
-
Hi guys,
We have this website http://www.m-health-expo.nl/ but it is not indexed by google. In webmaster tools google says that it can not fetch the site due to the robots.txt but i do not see any faults in it. http://www.m-health-expo.nl/robots.txt
Do you see something strange, it really bothers me.
-
Thanks Wissem and Mike,
GWT gives now a good response, so it works!
Cheerz,
-
If the site has only been live for a few weeks-- they may have an old robots.txt file indexed.
So... What Wissam said.
-
its meaningless to have robots.txt under a folder .. the appropriate location is in the root ... but still it have nothing to do with your current issue... give it a day
in the meantime go to Crawl > Blocked URLs
and see what is robots.txt content is saying and when was the last time they update the robots.txt content
-
Okey thanks, the site is live for a few weeks now. Maybe it has to do with the fact that http://www.m-health-expo.nl/ has a robots txt and http://www.m-health-expo.nl/en/ has a robots.txt.
What is really strange is that it is just a default robots.txt.
But thanks and i will try it.
Cheers Ruud

Can you please open this URL?
https://www.google.com.pk/search?q=site%3Awww.m-health-expo.nl%2Fen&oq=site%3Awww.m-health-expo.nl%2Fen&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i58.990j0j4&sourceid=chrome&espv=210&es_sm=93&ie=UTF-8 kindly remove the robots.txt file for now.Do you see any error in webmaster.Blocking important URL of site something like it.
Solution already recommended by wissam.Follow it if the results are not positive.Its not fetching files right.Remove robots.txt file and remove the SEO plugin you are using for now.give it a day and update us about results.Google takes time to reconsider URL blocked by robots.txt or removed by GW.
-
Thanks but GWT tells me that the robots.txt is blocking it from indexing.
-
Use fetch as GoogleBot in GWT.
Provide 2 fetchs one for the robots.txt and one for the root and both fetches submit them to index

Indexed pages
Just started a site audit and trying to determine the number of pages on a client site and whether there are more pages being indexed than actually exist. I've used four tools and got four very different answers... Google Search Console: 237 indexed pages Google search using site command: 468 results MOZ site crawl: 1013 unique URLs Screaming Frog: 183 page titles, 187 URIs (note this is a free licence, but should cut off at 500) Can anyone shed any light on why they differ so much? And where lies the truth?

Local Google vs. default Google search
Hello Moz community, I have a question: what is the difference between a local version of Google vs. the default Google in regards to search results? I have a Mexican site that I'm trying to rank in www.google.com.mx, but my rankings are actually better if I check my keywords on www.google.com The domain is a .mx site, so wouldn't it make more sense that this page would rank higher on google.com.mx instead of the default Google site, which in theory would mean a "broader" scope? Also, what determines whether a user gets automatically directed to a local Google version vs. staying on the default one? Thanks for your valuable input!
