    Hi,
    Hope you all are doing great!
    I have created a dog blog a few weeks back which talks about all things about dogs (http://pawspulse.com/). I am publishing couple of articles everyday which are more than 5k words long with proper keyword research but still Google is not indexing my content. My content is systematically categorized in proper categories related to dog guides, nutrition, accessories, dog breeds etc.
    Can anyone help me how to get the website index faster fully. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks

      @Aman0022 To get your website indexed faster by Google, ensure you've submitted your site to Google Search Console and submitted a sitemap. Also, focus on building quality backlinks from reputable sources, improve website speed and ensure proper internal linking. Additionally, regularly update your content and engage with your audience through social media to increase visibility and credibility.

        @Aman0022 Initially, I would suggest you stay patient. Google will eventually index your website unless there is any technical error. You can start sharing your blogs on social media like LinkedIn, FB Groups, etc. This can speed up the guarantee. If this doesn't work, then acquire 1 or 2 quality backlinks for an active website.

            Check Robots.txt: Ensure that your website's robots.txt file is not blocking search engine crawlers from accessing important pages. Review and update the robots.txt file to allow indexing of relevant content.

            Submit Sitemap: Create an XML sitemap containing all the pages you want indexed and submit it to search engines like Google and Bing through their respective webmaster tools. This helps search engines discover and crawl your website more efficiently.

            Quality Content: Ensure your website contains high-quality, relevant content that provides value to users. Search engines prioritize websites with valuable content when indexing and ranking pages.

            Internal Linking: Implement internal linking throughout your website to help search engine crawlers discover and navigate between pages. Internal links help distribute authority and relevance across your site's pages.

            Monitor Technical Issues: Regularly monitor your website for technical issues that may hinder indexing, such as server errors, broken links, or slow page load times. Address any issues promptly to ensure optimal crawling and indexing.

            Backlink Profile: Build a strong backlink profile by earning links from authoritative and relevant websites. Quality backlinks can improve your website's visibility and credibility, leading to better indexing and ranking in search results.

            Mobile-Friendly Design: Ensure your website is optimized for mobile devices, as mobile-friendliness is a significant factor in search engine rankings. Use responsive design techniques to provide a seamless user experience across all devices.

            Patience and Persistence: Indexing can take time, especially for new websites or recently updated content. Be patient and continue implementing best practices for SEO and website optimization to improve indexing over time.

            By following these expert recommendations and regularly monitoring your website's performance, you can improve its chances of getting indexed by search engines and increase its visibility in search results.

                    @glenphillips said in Website is not getting indexed:

                    It sounds like you're putting a lot of effort into your dog blog, and it's great to hear that you're creating valuable, in-depth content for your audience. Getting your website indexed by Google can sometimes take time, but there are a few steps you can take to help speed up the process:

                    Submit your website to Google: Make sure you've submitted your website to Google Search Console. This allows you to request indexing for specific pages and gives you insights into how Google sees your site.

                    Create a sitemap: Generate a sitemap for your website and submit it to Google Search Console. A sitemap helps search engines understand the structure of your site and can speed up the indexing process.

                    Optimize your website for search engines: Ensure that your website is optimized for search engines by using relevant keywords in your titles, headings, and content. Also, make sure your website is mobile-friendly and loads quickly.

                    Promote your content: Share your articles on social media platforms and relevant online communities. The more visibility your content gets, the more likely it is to be indexed by Google.

                    Build backlinks: Try to get other reputable websites to link to your content. Backlinks are an important ranking factor for search engines and can help improve the visibility of your website.

                    Be patient: Sometimes, it just takes time for Google to index new content. Keep publishing high-quality content consistently, and eventually, Google will likely take notice.

                    Remember that SEO is an ongoing process, and it may take some time to see results. Keep refining your strategies and monitoring your progress through tools like Google Analytics and Google Search Console. Good luck with your dog blog!

                          Well, you should check for noindex tags. Basically, you need to make sure your site or specific pages are not accidentally marked with noindex tags. These tags tell search engines not to index the page, so you'll want to remove them if you find any.

                          I understand about noindex tags, these are the basic practice of any website when starting your site, I have cross-checked every SEO settings but I cant figure out the reason behind this!

                              I'm experiencing the same difficulties with the indexing of my recently published posts!

                              And they seem to be lingering unindexed for an extended period. I've ensured that the content is unique and relevant, followed best SEO practices, and submitted the posts through the Search Console. Despite these efforts, the indexing delay persists. Any insights or suggestions on how to troubleshoot and expedite the indexing process would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

                                    A website get indexed only if we do proper optimization of our website and that involves conducting a great website audit in which looking whether proper on-page and off-page optimization is done or not.
                                    For bot crawl and then get indexed you have to do many on page and off page SEO such giving maximum backlinks. SSL certificate, mobile friendly test etc.

                                      indexing issues are duplicate content without a proper canonical tag, blocked page access, incorrect robots. txt file, poorly implemented redirects, and rendering issues related to Javascript.

                                        I hope you're doing well! I understand your concern about your dog blog not getting indexed by Google despite regularly publishing substantial content. To expedite the indexing process, you can take several steps. Firstly, ensure that your website is accessible to search engines by checking the robots.txt file. Submitting a sitemap through Google Search Console can also help Google discover and index your pages faster. Additionally, focus on building quality backlinks from reputable sources, as this can enhance your website's visibility to search engines. Consistency in content publication, along with social media promotion, can further contribute to quicker indexing. Regularly update your sitemap, monitor crawl errors, and consider leveraging internal linking within your website. Remember that patience is key, as indexing times can vary.

                                            If your website is related to images, then submit a sitemap-image. Otherwise, the content website should submit sitemap.xml in search engine tools like google search console and bing webmaster tools. Check if the robot.txt of your website is allowing crawlers to come on your website.

                                              The website may not be getting indexed due to several reasons. Firstly, it's essential to ensure proper accessibility by search engine crawlers; check your website's robots.txt file for any restrictions. Additionally, poor website structure, duplicate content, or technical issues like slow loading times can hinder indexing. To address this, conduct a comprehensive SEO audit to identify and rectify any issues. Ensure quality backlinks from reputable sources and submit an updated sitemap to search engines.

                                                  I'm sorry to hear that your website is not getting indexed. Lack of indexing can negatively impact your website's visibility and organic search traffic. There are a few potential reasons for this issue. Here are some steps you can take to address it:

                                                  Check if your website is accessible: Ensure that your website is live and accessible to both users and search engine bots. If there are any server or DNS configuration issues, it could prevent indexing.

                                                  Submit your sitemap to search engines: Create an XML sitemap for your website and submit it to major search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo. This helps search engines understand the structure and content of your site.

                                                  Review your robots.txt file: Make sure that your website's robots.txt file is not blocking search engine crawlers from accessing important pages. Check if any pages or directories are unintentionally disallowed from indexing.

                                                  Improve your site's internal linking: Ensure that your website's pages are well-connected through internal links. This helps search engine spiders discover and navigate your content more effectively, increasing the chances of indexing.

                                                  Create high-quality and unique content: Search engines prioritize indexing websites with valuable and unique content. Regularly update your site with fresh and engaging content, optimizing it for relevant keywords to attract search engine attention.

                                                  Build high-quality backlinks: Acquire backlinks from authoritative and relevant websites. Quality backlinks act as signals to search engines, indicating that your website is trustworthy and worth indexing.

                                                  Monitor your website's technical aspects: Keep an eye on technical SEO issues such as broken links, duplicate content, and slow page load times. Addressing these issues can help improve indexing and overall website performance.

                                                  If you've already taken these steps and your website is still not getting indexed, you might want to consider seeking assistance from a professional SEO expert who can perform a more thorough analysis and provide tailored recommendations.

                                                    @Aman0022 , I had the same problem with my site https://www.campingseats.com and thought it was because it was an affiliate site, but I did a few guest posts on some blogs that were camping-specific, and that seemed to really help. I still have a hard time getting my new category pages indexed unless I do link-building to each one. So if anyone has any ideas for me on that, it would be appreciated.

                                                    However, I used ahrefs.com on your website, and it looks like you are killing it if you ask me. I see you are already ranked under almost 1,000 keywords and getting a couple hundred clicks a month, so I am guessing any indexing issues you may have had are a thing of the past. Nice work on getting a new site up and running and getting traffic.

                                                        @Aman0022 You just need to write site: websitename on Google and you can check the index status

                                                                international seo crawling

                                                                Hi, I am working on the SEO of an online gaming platform - a platform that can only be accessed by people in certain countries, where the games and content are legally allowed.
                                                                Example: The games are not allowed in the USA, but they are allowed in Canada. Present Situation:
                                                                Presently when a user from the USA visits the site they get directed to a restricted location page with the following message: RESTRICTED LOCATION
                                                                Due to licensing restrictions, we can't currently offer our services in your location. We're working hard to expand our reach, so stay tuned for updates! Because USA visitors are blocked Google which primarily (but not always) crawls from the USA is also blocked, so the company webpages are not being crawled and indexed. Objective / What we want to achieve: The website will have multiple region and language locations. Some of these will exist as standalone websites and others will exist as folders on the domain. Examples below:
                                                                domain.com/en-ca [English Canada]
                                                                domain.com/fr-ca [french Canada]
                                                                domain.com/es-mx [spanish mexico]
                                                                domain.com/pt-br [portugese brazil]
                                                                domain.co.in/hi [hindi India] If a user from USA or another restricted location tries to access our site they should not have access but should get a restricted access message.
                                                                However we still want google to be able to access, crawl and index our pages. Can i suggest how do we do this without getting done for cloaking etc? Would this approach be ok? (please see below) We continue to work as the present situation is presently doing, showing visitors from the USA a restricted message.
                                                                However rather than redirecting these visitors to a restricted location page, we just black out the page and show them a floating message as if it were a model window.
                                                                While Googlebot would be allowed to visit and crawl the website. I have also read that it would be good to put paywall schema on each webpage to let Google know that we are not cloaking and its a restricted paid page. All public pages are accessible but only if the visitor is from a location that is not restricted Any feedback and direction that can be given would be greatly appreciated as i am new to this angle of SEO. Sincere thanks,

                                                                When my website Custom Made Casino switched from universal analytics to GA, i have noticed that now in the behavior section it is showing 2 versions of my homepage which I feel may be impacting seo. It is showing the main url which we use for everything, https://custommadecasino.com/ , and it is showing https://custommadecasino.com/index.php?route-common/home. This was never the case with universal. Does anyone know if this is a problem and if so, how do i fix it so that our proper homepage is what is indexed?

                                                                Is there a quick and easy way to check a website to see which outbound links open in the browser window and not in a new window?

                                                                I have just come across a few blogs on a website that have outbound links that open in the browser window (and therefore direct people off site to these links) (there are also other outbound links that open in a new window)- is there a quick and easy way to check which outbounds links open in a new window and which open in the browser window?

                                                                In Index but not in Serps

                                                                Hi, I have a situation with a client site which is quite frustrating. Basically, most "recent" (by that I mean for the last couple of months) blog posts are failing to reach the SERPS (actually, one has and a couple have from the early days but it's taken months for them to arrive). Previously the blog posts were indexed very quickly - often instantly. Now, I've checked WMT etc and I've submitted each post manually but still nothing.  The Sitemap is valid etc. However, pages (not blog posts) seem to be getting into the serps very quickly. Another complication is that if I search: site:www.domainname.com and set the date filter to a month I can see some of the earlier blog posts in that result set. However, if I scrape a bit of unique content from one of those posts and search - nothing in the SERPS.  And my Moz report tells me that the page is not to be found in the top 50 either (so I'm confident these pages are not in the SERPS). Any ideas why this would happen to just blog posts?  Is it something to do with the parent blog landing perhaps being too strong in the rankings? Any ideas appreciated. Thanks.
