          Hey there MOZ Geniuses;

          While checking my webmaster data I noticed that almost all my Google impressions are generated by the home page, most other content pages are showing virtually no impression data <50 (the home page is showing around 1500 - a couple of the pages are in the 150-200 range).  the site has been up for about 8 months now.  Traffic on average is about 500 visitors, but I'm seeing very little entry other then the home page.

          • Checking the number Sitemap section 27 of 30 are index
          • Webmaster tools are not reporting errors
          • Webmaster keyword impressions are also extremely low 164 keywords with the highest impression count of 79 and dropping from there.
          • MOZ is show very few minor issues although it says that it crawled 10k pages? -- we only have 30 or so.

          The answer seems obvious, Google is not showing my content ... the question is why and what steps can I take to analyze this?  Could there be a possibility of some type of penalty?

          I welcome all your suggestions:  The site is www.calibersi.com

            Awesome, any thoughts on what I can check or do to see if there are any other potential issues with Google.  I'm a bit concerned that there is a penalty on this site.

              I see only about 50 pages now. Hopefully this will cure some of your issues now.

                Hey Andy;

                Can you rerun the check on the site and see if my fix address the billion page issue?  www.calibersi.com, I added code to block the crawlers from indexing these pages and a redirect to an error page if the count exceeds the available posts.  It should do it but it would be great to get another set of eyes on it 🙂

                      I would look at your Wordpress install first Jack. There is no way this sort of number of pages should be getting generated. Sort that out and you have sorted a huge problem out.

                        I did add the to all these pages to prevent them from being crawled.  That should do the trick right?

                        I'll have to check the software to see why its doing that.

                          Hi Jack,

                          I used Screaming Frog Spider to run the report, which is still going and up to about 9k pages so far.

                            Hey Andy;

                            Thanks for the quick response: That would explain the 10k moz found, what tool did you use to create the attachment?

                            Although, I did add the to all these pages to prevent them from being crawled.

                              I just ran a very quick scan of your site and you have thousands of blog and category pages.

                              There is a chance because of this that you are seeing a penalty - This is just one of the pages: http://www.calibersi.com/category/Vehicle-Graphics?page=1904

                              I would start by having a quick look at how the site / blog is setup and seeing if there is anything glaringly obvious there.

                                Just started a site audit and trying to determine the number of pages on a client site and whether there are more pages being indexed than actually exist. I've used four tools and got four very different answers... Google Search Console: 237 indexed pages Google search using site command: 468 results MOZ site crawl: 1013 unique URLs Screaming Frog: 183 page titles, 187 URIs (note this is a free licence, but should cut off at 500) Can anyone shed any light on why they differ so much? And where lies the truth?

                                Why is Google Webmaster Tools showing 404 Page Not Found Errors for web pages that don't have anything to do with my site?

                                I am currently working on a small site with approx 50 web pages.  In the crawl error section in WMT Google has highlighted over 10,000 page not found errors for pages that have nothing to do with my site.  Anyone come across this before?

                                I have an issue with a few page titles not matching the title I have In WordPress.  I have 2 pages, blog & creative gallery, that show the homepage title, which is causing duplicate title errors.  This has been going on for 5 weeks, so its not an a crawl issue.  Any ideas what could cause this? To clarify, I have the page title set in WP, and I checked "Disable PSP title format on this page/post:"...but this page is still showing the homepage title.  Is there an additional title setting for a page in WP?

                                How to determine which pages are not indexed

                                Is there a way to determine which pages of a website are not being indexed by the search engines? I know Google Webmasters has a sitemap area where it tells you how many urls have been submitted and how many are indexed out of those submitted. However, it doesn't necessarily show which urls aren't being indexed.

                                Determining When to Break a Page Into Multiple Pages?

                                Suppose you have a page on your site that is a couple thousand words long. How would you determine when to split the page into two and are there any SEO advantages to doing this like being more focused on a specific topic. I noticed the Beginner's Guide to SEO is split into several pages, although it would concentrate the link juice if it was all on one page. Suppose you have a lot of comments. Is it better to move comments to a second page at a certain point? Sometimes the comments are not super focused on the topic of the page compared to the main text.

                                Landing Page URL Structure

                                We are finally setting up landing pages to support our PPC campaigns. There has been some debate internally about the URL structure. Originally we were planning on URL's like: domain.com /california /florida /ny I would prefer to have the URL's for each state inside a "state" folder like: domain.com /state /california /florida /ny I like having the folders and pages for each state under a parent folder to keep the root folder as clean as possible. Having a folder or file for each state in the root will be very messy. Before you scream URL rewriting :-). Our current site is still running under Classic ASP which doesn't support URL rewriting. We have tried to use HeliconTech's ISAPI rewrite module for IIS but had to remove it because of too many configuration issues. Next year when our coding to MVC is complete we will use URL rewriting. So the question for now: Is there any advantage or disadvantage to one URL structure over the other?
