Problem with Wordpress RSS feed and Feedburner
-
Just discovered a problem with my company site's RSS feed. I'm a bit embarrassed to ask, but I thought someone in the community might have encountered this -- and I cannot figure it out for the life of me!
We had redirected our Wordpress feed to Feedburner. We publish at least once per week, but no posts after March 18 are in the feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheClineGroup The standard (Wordpress) RSS feed page does not load: http://theclinegroup.com/feed/
Of course, I deactivated all plug-ins to see if one of them was the issue, but the problem(s) still existed.
Thanks so much for any assistance!

The problem are, feedburner get new posts from the rss itself, and this RSS doesn't work now.
The solution still be finded on wordpress or the server itself, feedburner it's okay.

Hmm... got to think about that one. What happens if someone grabs your RSS feed and puts it into their feedburner or some other feed stream - is that duplicate content too?
Have you had negative experiences with multiple RSS feeds out there from one site?

Duplicate content

If I remember correctly, there was a way you had to manually update the feed in Feedburner. Man, its been so long since I had to do it though.
*edit
Looks like you have to ping and resync your feeds. Try using the info in this link.

Why not use both at the same time?

I don't actually use Feedburner myself, so can't really help with anything in that respect, but I am surprised if it isn't updating automatically.
Because I don't use this, I did have a quick look at this page, and perhaps you might find your answer there?

I still want to use Feedburner, but I'm just trying to figure out how to make it self-update again when a new post is published.

Hi Samuel,
Are you trying to move back away from Feedburner and use your own feed again, or is it just that it won't load?
I did try going to your main feed URL http://www.theclinegroup.com/wp-rss2.php but this does forward to Feedburner rather than go to /feed, and I think it is this redirect that is causing the problem. If you go to my site, http://www.inetseo.co.uk/wp-rss2.php, you will see it forwards to /feed.

Have you reviewed your server blog? As i can see on your server, the RSS address get a 304 not modified even when i try to full-reload page. The problem it's outside WP i think, you have something telling who the RSS are not modified.

Tough SEO problem, Google not caching page correctly
My web site is http://www.mercimamanboutique.com/ Cached version of French version is, cache:www.mercimamanboutique.com/fr-fr/ showing incorrectly The German version: cache:www.mercimamanboutique.com/de-de/ is showing correctly. I have resubmitted site links, and asked Google re-index the web site many times. The German version always gets cached properly, but the French version never does. This is frustrating me, any idea why? Thanks.

If I sell custom sticker products and have similar titles, is it a problem?
Hi, We're running a rather new website at www.redrockdecals.com and we sell mainly sticker products. I would just like to clarify on something that is bugging me and I just can't go forward with other products until I know the answers. I'd appreciate the help so much. We sell for example license plate products for different European countries. I have figured out the best title for the page would be for example "Custom Catalonia License Plate" and the primary keyword in this is Catalonia license plate since that's what actually gets some searches from Google and therefore I have used that without the word "custom" in the product description text. I guess it's a good idea to write totally different description texts for all of these license plate pages so that's what I've been doing. Now the question is - does google accept the fact that I have different product titles like Custom Catalonia License Plate, Custom Germany License Plate etc so just the country name differs on all of these pages? Or should I play around with the titles and word orders also? There is one part on the product page where we describe for example the temperature ranges and other specifications about the sticker material as you can see here: http://www.redrockdecals.com/custom-slovakia-license-plate Is it ok to copy-paste that text to all of the pages if the short descriptions on top of the product page are different?

Who uses WordPress Tags anymore?
Just curious if people are still using WordPress Tags. I wonder if with the direction Google is going the last couple years, having sites that get bloated with extraneous Tag archives just decreases the quality of the site.

SEO problems from moving from several pages to one accordian
Ive read other posts that say using accordion is not detrimental to SEO, and for conversion optimization we want to take several of our existing pages and make them into one accordion. But what will this do to seo and duplicate content as I redirect the old pages to anchors in the accordion? I would think this would be a dup content problem as www.oldinfo1 www.oldinfo2 will now have their content on the same page but I will be redirecting them to www.newpage#oldinfo1 www.newpage#oldinfo2 Is there a way around duplicate content problems?

Advice on strange URL problem
I'm considering doing some pro bono work for a local non-profit and upon initial review they have a number of serious issues but there is one in particular I'd like to check my thinking on. The developer who set up the site some years ago implemented a javascript redirect on their root domain so that it redirects to: http://domain.com/wordpress This is wrong for all kinds of reasons and I want to recommend eliminating this redirect and getting rid of the 'wordpress' part of the path altogether. However, the site is quite established with good PR and they would take a hit by changing the path. I'd do 301 redirects to the new URLs that would not have 'wordpress' in the path in addition to other remediation. My question - is my thinking here good? It's worth it, right? The other option is just get rid of the weird redirect and keep 'wordpress' in the path but this seems unacceptable to me. Any opinions?

Paginated Home Page Duplicates on Wordpress Sites
A number of my websites created on WP are displaying duplicate home pages with these types of urls. http://www.example.com/page/10/ http://www.example.com/page/11/ http://www.example.com/page/12/ I found these duplicates using the site:search command. Basically, put in any number and the Home Page opens. With the above mentioned url structure. Any idea on why they are created, how they can be stopped and what kind of an impact they would have in terms of SEO and the penalty that comes with duplicate content.
