Google not crawling the website from 22nd October
-
Hi, This is Suresh. I made changes to my website and I see that google is unable to crawl my website from 22nd October. Even it is not showing any content when I use Cache:www.vonexpy.com. Can any body help me in knowing why Google is unable to crawl my website. Is there any technical issue with the website? Website is www.vonexpy.com
Thanks in advance.

Looks like its not just us - this is starting to get more attention https://www.seroundtable.com/google-cache-dated-19497.html

Our home page was cached today, but many of the pages on our site haven't been indexed since late October. It looks like this is a widespread issue.
-
I can see 90% of the pages I look at havent been cached since 22nd Oct, and I mean pages picked at random from hotels.com, booking.com and other big sites - is there a wider google cache issue going on?
-
I understand but we are not talking about black hat seo, just to crawl a site that hasn´t be crawled since october. And we all already know that sometimes Google says half-truths. I was suggesting to do something knew to get different results that he already had. Anyway i appreciate your point of view.
-
Google the queries: black hat seo, link buying. Click the first 100 results for both + read the guide on SEO by Google and then you probably get the point ;-).

Why not Martijn? That tool has helped me several times not in the same case but for backlinks.

You are not being serious?

Thanks Martin,
I made some design changes to my website. When you check the cache you an see that the website content is not crawled as the website contains some java script links. I replaced them with text links. So now it should crawl and index the website even though there is no new content. As the old spider is unable to crawl the website because of the image based links. And also I submitted the sitemap to webmaster tools only after the design change. It just indexed all the 30 urls 2 days back.@ Hemani I already submitted to webmaster tools and used fetch as google on the site but still there is no crawling.

Hi Suresh,
It looks like there are no problems on the site itself that prevent Google from crawling it, so that's a good thing. As the sitemap only consists of 31 (different) URLs, chances are that Google found out that the pages aren't any different any time that they crawled the pages. If that is really the case then I wouldn't mind so much about Google not crawling the content every now and then.
-
This is a normal problem and I have accord this quite a few times on my blog. The best way to do that is to submit your sitemap in Google Webmaster tool and get social tweets and social likes on your website and you will see Google will start crawling your website in days!
Hope this helps!

Should we reinstate the old website?
In a nut shell we had a great site that performed well and grew month on month but it perhaps looked a bit dated. A decision was taken to build a new site and the job given to a PR agency for some reason. All the titles, H1 tags, page content and url structure was changed and now the site has drop 50% of organic traffic. I've been tasked with trying to rebuild rankings but so far it's not going well. A snapshot of the old website still exists and i'm very tempted to have it reinstated in the hopes that our traffic will recover. What are your thoughts?

How Does Google Handle Websites Like Craigslist
Hi, I am just eager to know that how Google handles the websites like craigslist.org because this is a classified website and also the same user we can expect to post with same title and description in many classified websites. So, this will cause many duplicate content issues and also thin content issues. So, how does Google treat this kind of websites. Thanks in Advance

Why has google stopped showing one domain and switching to showing another that points to the same website?
My client has a website here: http://www.savannahchiropractic.com/ The site ranked really well for searches for the term "savannah chiroprtactor". Sometime last week (April 21 mobilegeddon?) the site slipped in rankings, but reappeared under the domain name: "www.whitemarshchiropractic.com" Both URLs go to the exact same site. and I don't even think that the whitemarshchripractic.com site is a redirect. I'm not sure how it's setup, but it's definitely not a duplicate site. The ranking is still lower than the savannahchiropractic.com site, but now appears. Anyone have any insights on this?

Why are Google search results different if you are log'd into Google or not?
I get different results when I'm log'd into my Google account associated with my website than if I'm not. The same country is occurring. So how can I rely on the google results I'm seeing? For instance my site is page 1 with the improvements I made based on SEOMOZ if I'm log'd in. Yet I'm not on the first 25 pages if I'm not logged in.
