Cached version of my site is not showing content?
-
Hi mozzers,
I am a bit worried since I looked a cache version of my site and somehow content is partially showing up and navigation has completely disappeared.
Where could this come from? What should I be doing?
Thanks!

Thanks guys!
When using FETCH and RENDER on GSC everything looks normal, I do see navigational items which is good but I see a PARTIAL status. Is that ok?

Hi There,
The cached version is how your website looked when Google cached it. It is possible that your site's scripts might not have loaded during that time and made it partially available to Google. I would recommend to run tests and try to resolve before next caching happens. The two possible reasons for the site partial load can be 1.due to caching issue on your website 2. script load time is too much.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have further questions.
Regards,
Vijay

Sometimes the cached pages aren't the actual representation of the page that you're looking for as some of the assets can't be loaded. What I do is go into Google Search Console and try to Fetch as Google for the same page you just tried to look up as the cached version. Then check what the response is and if that matches, often it's not the case and the page will fetch just as you see it as a user. With some of the more modern techniques it's possible that the page wont' render correctly in a cached version versus the live version.

What are you using CloudFlare? If so you'll have to play with the different settings, you might have something interacting badly with your content.
Purge the Cache for starters, then tweak the settings. Remove AMP, uncheck the minified HTML/CSS/Javascript etc.
If you have another type of CDN and want me to look to see if i can find a solution feel free to letme know. Of coarse if your hiding your IP behind it and don't want it leaked as to what CDN, I totally understand.

Splitting One Site Into Two Sites Best Practices Needed
Okay, working with a large site that, for business reasons beyond organic search, wants to split an existing site in two. So, the old domain name stays and a new one is born with some of the content from the old site, along with some new content of its own. The general idea, for more than just search reasons, is that it makes both the old site and new sites more purely about their respective subject matter. The existing content on the old site that is becoming part of the new site will be 301'd to the new site's domain. So, the old site will have a lot of 301s and links to the new site. No links coming back from the new site to the old site anticipated at this time. Would like any and all insights into any potential pitfalls and best practices for this to come off as well as it can under the circumstances. For instance, should all those links from the old site to the new site be nofollowed, kind of like a non-editorial link to an affiliate or advertiser? Is there weirdness for Google in 301ing to a new domain from some, but not all, content of the old site. Would you individually submit requests to remove from index for the hundreds and hundreds of old site pages moving to the new site or just figure that the 301 will eventually take care of that? Is there substantial organic search risk of any kind to the old site, beyond the obvious of just not having those pages to produce any more? Anything else? Any ideas about how long the new site can expect to wander the wilderness of no organic search traffic? The old site has a 45 domain authority. Thanks!

Google cache is showing my UK homepage site instead of the US homepage and ranking the UK site in US
Hi There, When I check the cache of the US website (www.us.allsaints.com) Google returns the UK website. This is also reflected in the US Google Search Results when the UK site ranks for our brand name instead of the US site. The homepage has hreflang tags only on the homepage and the domains have been pointed correctly to the right territories via Google Webmaster Console.This has happened before in 26th July 2015 and was wondering if any had any idea why this is happening or if any one has experienced the same issueFDGjldR

Whats peoples thoughts on this? Does it work? Is it worth the effort? Im not so sure but obviously looking for ideas. Cheers

Duplicate content on ecommerce sites
I just want to confirm something about duplicate content. On an eCommerce site, if the meta-titles, meta-descriptions and product descriptions are all unique, yet a big chunk at the bottom (featuring "why buy with us" etc) is copied across all product pages, would each page be penalised, or not indexed, for duplicate content? Does the whole page need to be a duplicate to be worried about this, or would this large chunk of text, bigger than the product description, have an effect on the page. If this would be a problem, what are some ways around it? Because the content is quite powerful, and is relavent to all products... Cheers,

Concerns about duplicate content issues with australian and us version of website
My company has an ecommerce website that's been online for about 5 years. The url is www.betterbraces.com. We're getting ready to launch an australian version of the website and the url will be www.betterbraces.com.au. The australian website will have the same look as the US website and will contain about 200 of the same products that are featured on the US website. The only major difference between the two websites is the price that is charged for the products. The australian website will be hosted on the same server as the US website. To ensure Australians don't purchase from the US site we are going to have a geo redirect in place that sends anyone with a AU ip address to the australian website. I am concerned that the australian website is going to have duplicate content issues. However, I'm not sure if the fact that the domains are so similar coupled with the redirect will help the search engines understand that these sites are related. I would appreciate any recommendations on how to handle this situation to ensure oue rankings in the search engines aren't penalized. Thanks in advance for your help. Alison French
