Homepage Deindexed?
-
Hi guys,
One site we have been working on which is: https://tinyurl.com/j5m8vld
Homepage seems to be deindexed by Google Australia.
From initial perspective it seems it could be high velocity of links too soon, but not 100% sure as there are no messages in GWT.
It could be duplicate content issues as we found duplication of the homepage e.g.
https://tinyurl.com/zzds5mf which is the exact same as the homepage.
However, don't think this would cause the homepage to be indexed which had strong rankings before it was deindexed (ranking for 100 keywords).
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated!
Cheers.

A google search for info:yourURL shows you're indexed and https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:LjWmVIf5O_gJ:https://www.mycustomcar.com.au/+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=au shows the site was cached a few hours ago. All appears well.

are you sure you are deindex? have you tested with a proxy? i just checked google.com.au googled "mycustomcar" and you are indexed fine (granted I don't have an aussie proxy to test from)

More internal links pointing to internal page vs homepage
I was looking at our GSC internal links section and I saw that we have 901 internal links going to our compare rates form and 890 going to our homepage. At the end of most of our content I add a call to action to our compare rates form. Is this SEO friendly or should I have more pointing to the homepage and less pointing to our compare rates page?

Website Indexing Issues - Search Bots will only crawl Homepage of Website, Help!
Hello Moz World, I am stuck on a problem, and wanted to get some insight. When I attempt to use Screaming Spider or SEO Powersuite, the software is only crawling the homepage of my website. I have 17 pages associated with the main domain i.e. example.com/home, example.com/sevices, etc. I've done a bit of investigating, and I have found that my client's website does not have Robot.txt file or a site map. However, under Google Search Console, all of my client's website pages have been indexed. My questions, Why is my software not crawling all of the pages associated with the website? If I integrate a Robot.txt file & sitemap will that resolve the issue? Thanks ahead of time for all of the great responses. B/R Will H.

[wtf] Mysterious Homepage De-Indexing
Our homepage, as well as several similar landing pages, have vanished from the index. Could you guys review the below pages to make sure I'm not missing something really obvious?! URLs: http://www.grammarly.com http://www.grammarly.com/plagiarism-checker It's been four days, so it's not just a temporary fluctuation The pages don't have a "noindex" tag on them and aren't being excluded in our robots.txt There's no notification about a penalty in WMT Clues: WMT is returning an "HTTP 200 OK" for Fetch, is showing a redirect to grammarly.com/1 (alternate version of homepage, contains rel=canonical back to homepage) for Fetch+Render. Could this be causing a circular redirect? Some pages on our domain are ranking fine, e.g. https://www.google.com/search?q=grammarly+answers A month ago, we redesigned the pages in question. The new versions are pretty script-heavy, as you can see. We don't have a sitemap set up yet. Any ideas? Thanks in advance, friends!

Google displaying the homepage instead of the landing page
I have a landing page that was ranking before for web design philippines its http://www.myoptimind.com/web-design-philippines Early this year, we dropped our rank and google displayed our homepage http://www.myoptimind.com When i search for "web design company philippines", i rank. however, for "web design philippines" I am on page 2. When I try "web design philippines" site:myoptimind.com it shows the landing page as the 2nd result. Last week, we tried to change the content of the page to reflect content that is more related to the keyword and moved the old content to http://www.myoptimind.com/web-design-services-philippines. We also changed the title of the homepage from Web Design Philippines | SEO Company Philippines to Web Design & SEO Company Philippines Still nothing has changed. I just wanted it to show the landing page instead of the root domain. Any idea how this can be solved?

Best solutions when homepage won't rank in Google?
My homepage (www.LeatherHideStore.com) will not rank for my keywords in Google - with Google mostly pulling product pages and some categories for serp results. In contrast, my homepage consistently shows for Yahoo and Bing with exceptions where a category is a better match for the keyword. In other words, it is working exactly as it should in Yahoo and Bing. After a year of this frustration I just upgraded to a new site on Magento Community and surprise, the same problem! The SEO moz analyzer has flagged significant duplicate content issues which I think is at the heart of my problem. I have asked my developer to address these but let's just say that customer service is not his forte. I am even starting to doubt he knows what to do although the site appears is well done. Given that it is a brand new site and duplicate content in Magento is to be expected (from what I have now read), I am deeply discouraged that my developer did not or could not plan for this so here I am again! Can anyone give me guidance on what to do? I have read a lot about canonicalization and it seems complicated especially if you have 1000 duplicate page titles. I have seen that there are some extensions (i.e. Ultimate SEO Suite by aheadWorks) for Magento that claim to be able to solve duplicate content problems but I am really just grasping at straws and do not have the confidence or skills to implement this on my own. Can anyone please help? Thanks! Hunter
