    Hello, Smart People!
    We need help solving the problem with Google indexing.
    All pages of our website are crawled and indexed. All pages, including those mentioned, meet Google requirements and can be indexed. However, only this page is still not indexed.
    Robots.txt is not blocking it.
    We do not have a tag "nofollow"
    We have it in the sitemap file.
    We have internal links for this page from indexed pages.
    We requested indexing many times, and it is still grey.
    The page was established one year ago.
    We are open to any suggestions or guidance you may have. What else can we do to expedite the indexing process?

      Hi, we had a problem, indexing a new post, through Google Search Console, but we believe that's because they been rolling out an Google update this week, we tried this morning, and it worked, a new blog post for our website design business got indexed. so, it could be because of an algorithm update rolling out?

        I launched a website about two months ago that got indexed right away. However, after 25 to 30 days, when I checked again, it was de-indexed, but then it got indexed again.

        After that, the website's position in the search engine results page (SERP) was fluctuating. Can someone tell me what the issue might be?

            If a particular page cannot be indexed by Google, it could be due to several reasons:

            1. Noindex Tag: The page may have a noindex meta tag, instructing search engines not to index it.
            2. Robots.txt Block: The page might be blocked from crawling in the robots.txt file, preventing Google from accessing it.
            3. Lack of Quality Content: Thin or duplicate content may cause Google to avoid indexing the page.
            4. Technical Issues: Broken links, server errors, or incorrect canonical tags can also prevent indexing.
            5. Manual Actions: Google might have applied a manual action if the page violates their guidelines.

            Addressing these issues can help the page get indexed properly.

              If your page cannot be indexed by Google, it could be due to several reasons. Make sure the page isn’t blocked by robots.txt, that it has a valid noindex tag, or that it's not set to 'noindex' in your CMS. Also, check for any crawl errors in Google Search Console.

              By the way, while you're troubleshooting, you can use tools like this website to keep track of your tasks or deadlines. Hope this helps!

                This page cannot be indexed by Google, potentially affecting its search visibility. To enhance your site’s SEO, consider leveraging [WordPress plugins] or other tools to ensure your content is fully accessible to search engines.

                              Hey @Viktoriia1805,

                              Would you be able to let us know the URL so we can check this?

                              Also are there any errors showing when you run the URL through the inspection tool on Google Search Console (as below)?

                              0e2cfb4c-6bed-4351-891c-b8b1c5373e0f-image.png

                                  Content Freshness: Update the page content regularly.
                                  Page Speed and Mobile Usability: Ensure the page is fast and mobile-friendly.

                                        GA4 showing 2 versions of my homepage

                                        ga4 indexing

                                        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?

                                        Virtual URL Google not indexing?

                                        canonical duplicate site structure url issue

                                        Dear all, We have two URLs: The main URL which is crawled both by GSC and where Moz assigns our keywords is: https://andipaeditions.com/banksy/ The second one is called a virtual url by our developpers: https://andipaeditions.com/banksy/signedandunsignedprintsforsale/ This is currently not indexed by Google. We have been linking to the second URL and I am unable to see if this is passing juice/anything on to the main one /banksy/ Is it a canonical? The /banksy/ is the one that is being picked up in serps/by Moz and worry that the two similar URLs are splitting the signal. Should I redirect from the second to the first? Thank you

                                        Any idea how Google is doing this? Is it schematic? http://techcrunch.com/2014/02/28/google-adds-full-restaurant-menus-to-its-search-results-pages/

                                        Google is now showing menus on select searches.  Any idea how they are getting this information? I would like to make sure my clients get visibility this way.

                                        How to find google indexed pages

                                        I can't find where the # of indexed pages are on my google analytics. I tried the instructions below, but the index status was not an option on my dashboard. View the Index Status page: On the Webmaster Tools home page, click the site you want. On the Dashboard, click Google Index, and then click Index Status.

                                        Does Google index dynamically generated content/headers, etc.?

                                        To avoid dupe content, we are moving away from a model where we have 30,000 pages, each with a separate URL that looks like /prices/<product-name>/<city><state>,  often with dupe content because the product overlaps from city to city, and it's hard to keep 30,000 pages unique, where sometimes the only distinction is the price & the city/state.</state></city></product-name> We are moving to a model with around 300 unique pages, where some of the info that used to be in the url will move to the page itself (headers, etc.) to cut down on  dupe content on those unique 300 pages. My question is this. If we have 300 unique-content pages with unique URL's, and we then put some dynamic info (year, city, state) into the page itself, will Google index this dynamic content? The question behind this one is, how do we continue to rank for searches for that product in the city-state being searched without having that info in the URL? Any best practices we should know about?

                                        E-Commerce product pages that have multiple skus with unique pages.

                                        Hey Guys, With the recent farm/panda update from google i'm at a cross roads as to how I should optimize product pages for a project i'm working on for a client. My client sells tires and one particular tire brand can have up to 15 models and each model can have up to 30 sizes. IE: 'Michelin Pilot Sport Cup' comes in 15 different sizes. Each size will have it's unique product page and description bringing me to my question. Should I use the same description on every size? I do plan on writting unique content for each tire model however i'm not sure if I should do it for every size. After all the tire model description is the same for every size, each size doesn't carry any unique characteristics that I can describe. Thanks in advance!

                                        Avoiding "Duplicate Page Title" and "Duplicate Page Content" - Best Practices?

                                        We have a website with a searchable database of recipes. You can search the database using an online form with dropdown options for: Course (starter, main, salad, etc)
                                        Cooking Method (fry, bake, boil, steam, etc)
                                        Preparation Time (Under 30 min, 30min to 1 hour, Over 1 hour) Here are some examples of how URLs may look when searching for a recipe: find-a-recipe.php?course=starter
                                        find-a-recipe.php?course=main&preperation-time=30min+to+1+hour
                                        find-a-recipe.php?cooking-method=fry&preperation-time=over+1+hour There is also pagination of search results, so the URL could also have the variable "start", e.g. find-a-recipe.php?course=salad&start=30 There can be any combination of these variables, meaning there are hundreds of possible search results URL variations. This all works well on the site, however it gives multiple "Duplicate Page Title" and "Duplicate Page Content" errors when crawled by SEOmoz. I've seached online and found several possible solutions for this, such as: Setting canonical tag Adding these URL variables to Google Webmasters to tell Google to ignore them Change the Title tag in the head dynamically based on what URL variables are present However I am not sure which of these would be best. As far as I can tell the canonical tag should be used when you have the same page available at two seperate URLs, but this isn't the case here as the search results are always different. Adding these URL variables to Google webmasters won't fix the problem in other search engines, and will presumably continue to get these errors in our SEOmoz crawl reports. Changing the title tag each time can lead to very long title tags, and it doesn't address the problem of duplicate page content. I had hoped there would be a standard solution for problems like this, as I imagine others will have come across this before, but I cannot find the ideal solution. Any help would be much appreciated. Kind Regards
