Is my content being fully read by Google?
-
Hi mozzers,
I wanted to ask you a quick question regarding Google's crawlability of webpages. We just launched a series of content pieces but I believe there's an issue.
Based on what I am seeing when I inspect the URL it looks like Google is only able to see a few titles and internal links. For instance, when I inspect one of the URLs on GSC this is the screenshot I am seeing:When I perform the "cache:" I barely see any content**:**
VS one of our blog post
- Would you agree with me there's a problem here?
- Is this related to the heavy use of JS? If so somehow I wasn't able to detect this on any of the crawling tools?
Thanks!

Thanks for your help!
I also did a site: "page content of several different pages" and I am getting our pages within the SERP so maybe there's nothing wrong since these pages are indexed. I guess we need to be waiting as you said. -
A few errors is always within margin of what google encounters. Ive seen broken pages completely that would not even render properly anymore but yet still rank. I'm not sure i was just guessing; but perhaps you need to give it a bit of time. I dont know what is going on really, new domains kind of are dampened for a while in order for Google to keep the spammy domains out of the place really.

There are just 6 errors but there's a fatal error though. See screenshot.

Is your page valid with W3C standards? https://validator.w3.org/
I mean if it's a spaghetti of errors then googlebot might encounter issues with that.
-
I see the most recent page but with only some headings, breadcrumb links, some images but none of the content within
-
When you put the full url in search, and hit the cache button, what does it show? A 1:1 copy of the current page or an outdated version?

Hi Jeroen,
It's been over 2 weeks that we published those pages.

If it's one day, i woud'nt worry about it. If the problem is still there after a week, let us know.

Google indexed "Lorem Ipsum" content on an unfinished website
Hi guys. So I recently created a new WordPress site and started developing the homepage. I completely forgot to disallow robots to prevent Google from indexing it and the homepage of my site got quickly indexed with all the Lorem ipsum and some plagiarized content from sites of my competitors. What do I do now? I’m afraid that this might spoil my SEO strategy and devalue my site in the eyes of Google from the very beginning. Should I ask Google to remove the homepage using the removal tool in Google Webmaster Tools and ask it to recrawl the page after adding the unique content? Thank you so much for your replies.

Why do Local "5 pack" results vary between showing Google+, Google+ and website address
I had a client ask me a good question. When they pull up a search result they show up at the top but only with a link to their G+ page. Other competitors show their web address and G+ page. Why are these results different in the same search group? Is there a way to ensure the web address shows up?

Duplicate content - how to diagnose duplicate content from another domain before publishing pages?
Hi, 🙂 My company is having new distributor contract, and we are starting to sell products on our own webshop. Bio-technology is an industry in question and over 1.000 products. Writing product description from scratch would take many hours. The plan is to re-write it. With permission from our contractors we will import their 'product description' on our webshop. But, I am concerned being penalies from Google for duplicate content. If we re-write it we should be fine i guess. But, how can we be sure? Is there any good tool for comparing only text (because i don't want to publish the pages to compare URLs)? What else should we be aware off beside checking 'product description' for duplicate content? Duplicate content is big issue for all of us, i hope this answers will be helpful for many of us. Keep it hard work and thank you very much for your answers, Cheers, Dusan

After reading of Google's so called "over-optimization" penalty, is there a penalty for changing title tags too frequently?
In other words, does title tag change frequency hurt SEO ? After changing my title tags, I have noticed a steep decline in impressions, but an increase in CTR and rankings. I'd like to once again change the title tags to try and regain impressions. Is there any penalty for changing title tags too often? From SEO forums online, there seems to be a bit of confusion on this subject...

Google Places - How do we rank
So, google places showing up on search results is great feature . . . But how can we get our results to the top? I mean I can see some terrible websites appearing at the top of the google places with their places page having no activity whatsoever. Is there a trick to this at all? What can we do to increase our ranking on Google Places because our old GOOD rankings are now appearing BELOW the map results Cheers
