Added sub-folder to GWT no data?
Hi guys,
I've added a sub-folder to GWT: domain.com.au/us/ about 5 days ago.
I have no yet received any data via GWT around the subfolder.
The main domain domain.com.au has been added separately and is receiving traffic.
Any ideas why i'm not seeing data for the sub-folder above domain.com.au/us/
I simply added it as a new property in GWT.
Thankyou.

Hi Jay! Did you ever get your data? Or did these fine folks help?

GSC is very finicky, I'd make sure:
- You're using the www subdomain, if that's how traffic typically gets to your site
- Google has domain.com.au/us/ indexed (check by searching for site:domain.com.au/us/ to see all of the pages Google has in its index)
- This subfolder gets traffic (check for organic traffic in Google Analytics)
Hope this helps!

Peter brings up a good check: are domain.com.au/us/ pages in Google's index? If they're blocked, you won't get anything.

Uhmm I thought this was about Google Search Console, not Google Analytics?
-
Sometimes it can take up to a week for data to appear in Google Search Console, but it should be there faster usually. We added hundreds of profiles automatically and within days we received the information. Are you absolutely positive that this folder is already receiving organic traffic?
-
Maybe because content there isn't appear in SERP to generate impressions. You need to check robots.txt, sitemap, hreflang of main site to see how pages in /us/ folder are indexed.

GWT Message - CMS Update Available
Howdy Moz, Just received a message in Google Webmaster Tools about a CMS update: "Joomla Update Available As of the last crawl of your website, you appear to be running Joomla 1.5. One or more of the URLs found were: http://www.website/custom-url/article5034 Google recommends that you update to the latest release. Older or unpatched software may be vulnerable to hacking or malware that can hurt your users. To download the latest release, visit the Joomla download page. If you have already updated to the latest version of Joomla, please disregard this message. If you have any additional questions about why you are receiving this message, Google has provided more background information in a blog post about this subject." Read through the associated blog post. According to the post a generator meta tag is created in Joomla that notes the CMS version. Here's the oddity: The site was on Joomla 1.5 over 2 years ago. 1 Year ago it was updated to Joomla 2.5. About a week ago it was converted completely to Wordpress. According to GWT the last date the Google bot accessed the site was the day before (5/1/14) the email. I went through the code, css/html, and the database and found no reference of Joomla 1.5. Has anyone seen this message? If so, how did you rectify it? Were there any adverse effects on rankings?

Are there discrepancies between GWT and SEOMoz?
In our keyword rank tracking report, we've dominated a keyword in Google and have secured the slot for years. All evidence points in this direction. In Google Webmaster Tools, however, this particular keyword averages a rank of 6.5. Is anyone else experience these kinds of discrepancies? What is your take on it?

Moving a database from a sub folder to a new domain
Hi Mozzers, I have a very popular property database on a subfolder of my main website. It accounts for about 2 thirds of my overall traffic. I'm moving the database to a new server, so my choices are now a sub domain or completely new domain. If I move my database to a new domain, will my main site lose SEO because of how popular the database is? Cheers Matt
