Pages not cached
-
Sorry for all the questions.
I have dozens of article pages that are not cached by google. How can I get them cached?
-
Your site is being properly indexed, your pages are appearing as expected in Google SERPs and you see the cached pages but you do not see the header at the top of the cached pages which says "This is Google's cache of [url]. It is a snapshot of the page as it appeared on [date]".
Is the above an accurate description of what you are seeing?
-
Kind of, it doesn't show a cache date.
-
If I understand you correctly, the pages in question appear in Google results and show a cache link, but when you click the cache link nothing happens? or a blank page appears?
-
It's weird. When I take some specific copy and insert it in google, the article comes up, but then when I click the "cached" link it doesn't show a cache. What's that?
-
I have a link off my homepage to my main article directory page. On that page is about a dozen or more category links. Click on a category, and then you have links to all the articles in that category So that's what, one click off homepage, second click on category, third click on actual article.
-
Are the pages currently indexed? If not, then the advice Bevelwise offered could help.
If the pages are appearing in the index, then the steps Bevelwise suggested would not benefit you. Normally Google will cache the pages. Any chance these pages have a meta tag set to disable caching?
-
I would ensure that you have submitted an .xml sitemap in Google Webmaster Tools that includes those article pages. That will help. Also if you make an HTML sitemap on your website and include links to those article pages that will also help.
Also depending on how your site architecture is setup affects how Google crawls your website. Are those article pages 2-3 clicks away from the website? Are all the links crawl-able html?

Page grader says we are keyword stuffing but we arn't. Page source shows different story.
Hi community! We have just run a page grader for the keyword 'LED Bulbs' on whichledlight.com and it comes up that we are keyword stuffing! However, a brief look at the source for the homepage and there's only 6 times that LED Bulbs pops up. We do have the non plural version of the word 'LED Bulb' on the page 27 times.. do we think that would contribute to the keyword stuffing? Thanks!!

On-Page Report Card: Whats up with the TITLE of the page?
Started to fix the SEO issues on a customers website. When I run a "On-Page Report Card" It says that the title of the webpage:
On-Page Optimization | | maklarlabbet
www.visbymaklarna.se/visbymaklarna.html Is "visbymäklarna - Ditt förstahandsval på gotland." But if I check in the source code of the webbrowser the title should be:
name="title" content="Vi är mäklarna på Gotland som sätter människan i första rummet" /> (Actually this is with special encoding for the swedish characters. The title in coded text is: "Vi är mäklarna på Gotland som sätter människan i första rummet") Anyway the title of the webpage source code and the title of what SEOmoz reports is different. Why is that?0 -
Does the title tag on the home page affect sub-pages?
Hello. I am thinking of changing our home page title tag to include our two most valuable keywords from two of our sub-pages. Would this help the rankings of those two sub-pages? Thank you!

Page architecture
We have some good content on our site, particularly relating to UK employment law. One section on unfair dismissal is split into 9 pages - there is a fair amount of legal detail. The question is whether we should combine it all into one "mother of all unfair dismissal" page just to satisfy the Google monster or keep in as it is. Some of the individual pages rank on page 1 already. If we change the architecture are 301 redirects the best way to handle the changing urls? The other more important issue is whether it is easier to read it all on one page or split it. Keeping G happy may not actually keep our users happy. As the content is quite dense we want to ensure we don't overload people. Any thoughts appreciated.

Duplicate Page Content Question
This article was published on fastcompany.com on March 19th. http://www.fastcompany.com/magazine/164/designing-facebook It did not receive much traffic, so it was re-posted on Co.Design today (March 27th) where it has received significantly more traffic. http://www.fastcodesign.com/1669366/facebook-agrees-the-secret-to-its-future-success-is-design My question is if google will dock us for reprinting/reusing content on another site (even if it is a sister site within the same company). If they do frown on that, is there a proper way to attribute the content to the source material/site (fastcompany.com)?

Duplicate page titles
We have search results pages on our site. They share the same page title, there is no real differentiator between the result pages, other than page 1, page 2 etc. How do we de-dup the titles? just add page 1/2/3 etc to the end of them?
