Sitemap indexation
-
3 days ago I sent in a new sitemap for a new platform. Its 23.412 pages but until now its only 4 pages (!!) that are indexed according to the Webmaster Tools. Why so few? Our stage-enviroment got indexed (more than 50K pages) in a few days by a mistake.

Thanks! I'll see if this changes anything.

Its not that complicated, it is really easy...
In Google Webmaster tools go to the Crawl/Fetch as Google. The top level will be displayed at the top of the page. Press the Fetch Button to the right.
Goolge will fetch the page and this will be displayed underneath on the same page. To the right of this line, you will see a button to submit to index. When you press this a pop up box will appear and you can select to either submit just this page or this page and all links from it. Select the all links from it. (you can only do this full crawl/submit option 10 times in a calendar month, to submit just single pages you can do this 500 times a month) and then press Submit.
Google will then submit all the pages to its index.
Hope that helps.

In regard of the error, Google crawled our https://stage.musik.dk instead of just https://musik.dk. We now have authorization on the subdomain, which gives errors in our account. I made another post about this and it seems it shouldn't harm our ranking.
Webmaster Tools is an extremely messy tool when working with various subdomains + no-http

Yeah. I've tested it several times, but with no errors. today its up on 35 indexed pages, but a loong way to go...

What do you mean by manual submit the site? Its more than 23.000 links, so a manual process is kinda of a no go

Hi,
Are you sure you submitted the right site map format / files? We've had in in the past that are sitemap was broken up into multiple files and we had to send sitemap-index.xml, sitemap-1.xml ... sitemap-16.xml. Have you checked it again and again?
regards

No Sure what the problem was with the "by mistake"
Go to Google Webmaster tools and "manually" submit the site for the home page and all links. This will at least get the ball rolling whilst you investigate the other possible problems once you revist the sitemap etc just to check that it is complete and has not missed off a bunch of pages

Search results indexed
Hi there, is is bad practice in seo to have search results for products indexed? For example a search result of holidays to Ibiza, with lots of deals coming up? its a search query url that would be indexed, with just an image and price per product on the page, with about 10 per page? Any advice appreciated.

Page not being indexed
Hi all, On our site we have a lot of bookmaker reviews, and we are ranking pretty good for most bookmaker names as keywords, however a single bookmaker seems to have been shunned by Google. For a search "betsafe" in Denmark, this page does not appear among the top 50: http://www.betxpert.com/bookmakere/betsafe All of our other review pages rank in top 10-20 for the bookmaker name as keyword. What to do if Google has "banned" a page? Best regards, Rasmus

Partial mobile sitemap
Hi, We have a main www website with a standard sitemap. We also have a m. site for mobile content (but m. is only for our top pages and doesn't include the entire site). If a mobile client accesses one of our www pages we redirect to the m. page. If we don't have a m. version we keep them on the www site. Currently we block robots from the mobile site. Since our m. site only contains the top pages, I'm trying to determine the boost we might get from creating a mobile sitemap. I don't want to create the "partial" mobile sitemap and somehow have it hurt our traffic. Here is my plan update m. pages to point rel canonical to appropriate www page (makes sure we don't dilute SEO across m. and www.) create mobile sitemap and allow all robots to access site. Our www pages already rank fairly highly so just want to verify if there are any concerns since m. is not a complete version of www?
