          We have some pages targeting the different countries but with the Near to Similar content/products, just distinguished with the country name etc.

          one of the page was assigned to me for optimizing. two or three Similar pages are ranked with in top 50 for the main keyword. I updated some on page content to make it more distinguish from others. After some link building, I found that this page still not showing in Google result, even I found the following message on the google.

          "In order to show you the most relevant results, we have omitted some entries very similar to the 698 already displayed.
          If you like, you can repeat the search with the omitted results included."

          I clicked to repeat omitted result and found that my targeted url on 450th place in google (before link building this was not)

          My questions are

          Is google consider this page low quality or duplicate content?

          Is there any role of internal linking to give importance a page on other (when they are near to similar)?

          Like these pages can hurt the whole site rankings?

          How to handle this issue?

              Hi,

              If your page is ranked 450th in Google that could mean a variety of different things; Google considers the page to be low quality content, duplicate content, it has an algorithmic penalty, it's not authoritative enough, or else it's simply irrelevant to the search phrase you're attempting to rank for.

              It would be hard to say exactly what the problem is without seeing the page, but from what you say it sounds like a duplicate content issue. If this is one of a large number of duplicate pages then that could also contribute to Google's perception of your site as being low quality.

              There are a few things you can do to try and correct the issue:

              If you have 3 different pages each selling the same boots to three different places..  eg "Leather boots London".. "Leather Boots Los Angeles"  and "Leather Boots NY" - then, like you suggested, you will need more than a change of place names to distinguish between the pages.

              Try changing more on the page. Meta Titles, Meta Descriptions, Alt Tags & titles on images & unique copy - the longer the copy the greater the opportunity you will have to make it unique.

              Linking between pages on your own site with descriptive anchor text is very important for helping Google to identify what the pages are about. Have a look at your site as a whole and have a think about your deep linking strategy.

              Finally, Rel=canonicle or 301 redirect any similar or duplicate pages which you do not intend to correct and do not intend to rank with.

              Alternatively, to try and determine if it's a separate, low quality issue, ask some of these questions:

              How many ads are on the page? How many hyperlinks are on the page? Does the page look spammy - spelling mistakes, weird grammar? How long is the copy - substantial and factual or brief and lacking any specific detail?

              However, the page being of low quality does not rule out the possibility of a duplicate content problem.

              EDIT: If it's a Dup Content issue then what Alan said would be a far simpler solution!

                You can get around this problem using meta tags.

                see this link, what will happen is they will try to prese nt a different page depending on the country someone is searching in. in short only one page will rank in each country

                  How long after https migration that google shows in search console new sitemap being indexed?

                  We migrated 4 days ago to https and followed best practices..
                  In search console now still 80% of our sitemaps appear as "pending" and among those sitemaps that were processed only less than 1% of submitted pages appear as indexed? Is this normal ?
                  How long does it take for google to index pages from sitemap? 
                  Before https migration nearly all our pages were indexed and I see in the crawler stats that google has crawled a number of pages each day after migration that corresponds to number of submitted pages in sitemap. Sitemap and crawler stats show no errors.

                  "Null" appearing as top keyword in "Content Keywords" under Google index in Google Search Console

                  Hi, "Null" is appearing as top keyword in Google search console > Google Index > Content Keywords for our site http://goo.gl/cKaQ4K . We do not use "null" as keyword on site. We are not able to find why Google is treating "null" as a keyword for our site. Is anyone facing such issue. Thanks & Regards

                  Does Google Read URL's if they include a # tag? Re: SEO Value of Clean Url's

                  An ECWID rep stated in regards to an inquiry about how the ECWID url's are not customizable, that "an important thing is that it doesn't matter what these URLs look like, because search engines don't read anything after that # in URLs. " Example http://www.runningboards4less.com/general-motors#!/Classic-Pro-Series-Extruded-2/p/28043025/category=6593891 Basically all of this: #!/Classic-Pro-Series-Extruded-2/p/28043025/category=6593891 That is a snippet out of a conversation where ECWID said that dirty urls don't matter beyond a hashtag... Is that true? I haven't found any rule that Google or other search engines (Google is really the most important) don't index, read, or place value on the part of the url after a # tag.

                  "noindex, follow" or "robots.txt" for thin content pages

                  Does anyone have any testing evidence what is better to use for pages with thin content, yet important pages to keep on a website? I am referring to content shared across multiple websites (such as e-commerce, real estate etc). Imagine a website with 300 high quality pages indexed and 5,000 thin product type pages, which are pages that would not generate relevant search traffic. Question goes: Does the interlinking value achieved by "noindex, follow" outweigh the negative of Google having to crawl all those "noindex" pages? With robots.txt one has Google's crawling focus on just the important pages that are indexed and that may give ranking a boost. Any experiments with insight to this would be great. I do get the story about "make the pages unique", "get customer reviews and comments" etc....but the above question is the important question here.

                  Brackets vs Encoded URLs: The "Same" in Google's eyes, or dup content?

                  Hello, This is the first time I've asked a question here, but I would really appreciate the advice of the community - thank you, thank you!  Scenario:  Internal linking is pointing to two different versions of a URL, one with brackets [] and the other version with the brackets encoded as %5B%5D Version 1: http://www.site.com/test?hello**[]=all&howdy[]=all&ciao[]=all
                  Version 2: http://www.site.com/test?hello
                  %5B%5D**=all&howdy**%5B%5D**=all&ciao**%5B%5D**=all Question: Will search engines view these as duplicate content?  Technically there is a difference in characters, but it's only because one version encodes the brackets, and the other does not (See: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_urlencode.asp) We are asking the developer to encode ALL URLs because this seems cleaner but they are telling us that Google will see zero difference.   We aren't sure if this is true, since engines can get so _hung up on even one single difference in character.  _ We don't want to unnecessarily fracture the internal link structure of the site, so again - any feedback is welcome, thank you. 🙂

                  How Do You Remove Video Thumbnails From Google Search Result Pages?

                  This is going to be a long question, but, in a nutshell, I am asking if anyone knows how to remove video thumbnails from Google's search result pages? We have had video thumbnails show up next to many of our organic listings in Google's search result pages for several months.  To be clear, these are organic listings for our site, not results from performing a video search.  When you click on the thumbnail or our listing title, you go to the same page on our site - a list of products or the product page. Although it was initially believed that these thumbnails drew the eye to our listings and that we would receive more traffic, we are actually seeing severe year over year declines in traffic to our category pages with thumbnails vs. category pages without thumbnails (where average rank remained relatively constant). We believe this decline is due to several things: An old date stamp that makes our listing look outdated (despite the fact that we can prove Google has spidered and updated their cache of these pages as recent as 2 days ago).  We have no idea where Google is getting this datestamp from. An unrelated thumbnail to the page title, etc. - sometimes a picture of a man's face when the category is for women's handbags A difference in intent - user intends to shop or browse, not watch a video.  They skip our listing because it looks like a video even though both the thumbnail and our listing click through to a category page of products. So we want to remove these video thumbnails from Google's search results without removing our pages from the index.  Does anyone know how to do this? We believed that this connection between category page and video was happening in our video sitemap.  We have removed all reference to video and category pages in the sitemap.  After making this change and resubmitting the sitemap in Webmaster Tools, we have not seen any changes in the search results (it's been over 2 weeks). I've been reading and it appears many believe that Google can identify video embedded in pages.  That makes sense.  We can certainly remove videos from our category pages to truly remove the connection between category page URL and video thumbnail.  However, I don't believe this is enough because in some cases you can find video thumbnails next to listings where the page has not had a video thumbnail in months (example: search for "leather handbags" and find www.ebags.com/category/handbags/m/leather - that video does not exist on that page and has not for months.  Similarly, do a search for "handbags" and find www.ebags.com/department/handbags.  That video has not been on that page since 2010. Any ideas?

                  Does Google crawl the pages which are generated via the site's search box queries?

                  For example, if I search for an 'x' item in a site's search box and if the site displays a list of results based on the query, would that page be crawled? I am asking this question because this would be a URL that is non existent on the site and hence am confused as to whether Google bots would be able to find it.
