Can you have 2 different websites on 1 webmaster tools account
-
Someone set up both our sites on the one webmaster tools account is this the best way to do it or should we have 2 different accounts. We are having problems with our site verification not working and our google shopping feeds not working could this be the cause.

Hi Adrienne,
In terms of the URL not claimed error can you confirm how you are doing this - there are several reasons why this can be lost including - trying to claim more than one URL in Merchant Center - for this you need a multi-client account which I linked to in my original response. You can also lose it if your site becomes unverified in webmaster tools - what I would suggest is that you look at this Google help article in relation to this and see if any of the reasons apply to you - https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/176793?hl=en-GB

Hi Matt,
The error is URL website not claimed. It was working perfectly for week. Then a couple of days after we got the lost claim to site message we also got the feed error.
What I can not work out is why we keep getting the URL website not claimed errors when we are not aware of changing anything.
Regards
Adrienne

Hi Adrienne
This means that Google has processed that number of items in your feed but there is an error with them - go on feeds and then click on feed name - you should see a message at the bottom that tells you what the error is with the items in your feed - this can be one of several things that mean you items aren't eligible for shopping.

Hi
Thanks for your help.
Twice first about 2 months ago and then last week, we started receiving messages that you have just lost your website URL claim in your Google Merchant Center account "
I have re verified each time by inserting the code on our site.
This week our goole feed also received "3,453 items processed
Shopping: 0 / 3,453"I am not sure what is happening

I have never had an issue having two sites setup under one webmaster tools account - what verification problem are you having when you add and verify another site in your account? Have you tried alternative methods in the options?
In terms of Google Merchant Center how have you set this up - you may find this useful regarding having multiple websites under one account

Webmaster tools Hentry showing pages that don't exist
In Webmaster Tools I have a ton of pages listed under Structured Data >> Hentry. These pages are not on my website and I don't know where they are coming from. I redid the site for someone and perhaps they are from the old site. How do I find and delete these? Thank you Rena

Why can no tool crawl this site?
I am trying to perform a crawl analysis on a client's website at https://www.bravosolution.com I have tried to crawl it with IIS for SEO, Sreaming Frog and Xenu and not one of them makes it further than the home page of the site. There is nothing I can see in the robots.txt that is blocking these agents. As far as I can see, Google is able to crawl the site although they have noticed a significant drop in organic traffic. Any advise would be very welcome Regards Danny

Canonicalization on my website
I am kind of new to all this but I would like to understand canonicalization. I have a website which when you arrive on it is www.mysite.com but once inside and flicking back to the homepage it reverts to www.mysite.com/index.html. Should I be doing something re canonicalization? If so what? Will the link juice be diluted by having two home page versions? Thanks

Does anyone know a sitemap generation tool that updates your sitemap based on changes on your website?
We have a massive site with thousands of pages which we update everyday. Is there a sitemap generator that can create google sitemaps on the fly and change only based on changes in the site? Our site is much too large to create new sitemaps on regular basis. Is there a tool that will run on server that does this automatically?

Two companies merge: website A redirect 301 to website B. Problems?
Hi, last december the company I work for and another company merged. The website of company A was taken offline and the home page was 302 redirected to a page on website B. This page had information about the merger and the consequences for customers. The deeper pages of website A were 301 redirected to similar pages on website B. After a while, the traffic from the redirected home page decreased and we thought it was time to change the redirect from a 302 into a 301 redirect to the home page. Because there are still a lot of links to the home page of website A and we wanted to preserve the link juice. Two weeks ago we changed the 302 redirect from website A into a 301 redirect to the home page of website B. Last week the Google webmaster tools account of website B showed the links from the 301 redirected website A. The total amount of links doubled and the top anchor text is the name of company A instead of company B. This, off course, could trigger an alarm at Google. Because we got a lot of new links with a different anchor text. A tactic used by spammers/black-hats. I am a bit worried that our change will be penalized by Google. But our change is legit. It is to the advantage of our customers to find us if they search for the name of company A or click on a link to website A. We didn´t change the change of address of domain A in Google webmaster tools yet. Is it a good idea to change the change of address of domain A into domain B? Are there other precautions we can take?
