          Hello,

          I have a very peculiar question about an issue I'm having when working on a website. It's a WordPress site and I'm using a generic plug in for title and meta updates. When I go to crawl the site through screaming frog, however, there seems to be a hard coded title tag that I can't find anywhere and the plug in updates don't get crawled.

          If anyone has any suggestions, thatd be great. Thanks!

            @KyleSennikoff Hi there! It sounds like you're encountering a common challenge. Check your WordPress theme files, especially header.php, for any hardcoded title tags. Additionally, ensure that the plugin-generated title and meta updates are reflected in the betflixs HTML source code. If the issue persists, consider reaching out to the plugin's support for assistance. Good luck.

                  there are a few possible explanations and solutions you can try:

                  Theme settings: Some WordPress themes have built-in options to set a default title tag or meta description for your website. Check your theme settings to see if there's a section where you can modify the title tag. Look for options like "SEO" or "Header" settings within the theme's customization options.

                  Child theme modifications: If you're using a child theme, it's possible that the hard-coded title tag is coming from a modification made within the child theme's files. Review the code of your child theme, particularly the header.php file, to see if there's any direct reference to the title tag.

                  SEO plugin conflicts: It's possible that there is a conflict between the generic plugin you're using for title and meta updates and another SEO-related plugin installed on your WordPress site. Try deactivating other SEO plugins temporarily to see if the issue persists. If the problem is resolved, you may need to choose one plugin for managing your SEO metadata.

                  Caching plugins or server caching: If you're using any caching plugins or server-level caching, it's possible that the changes made by the plugin are not immediately reflected due to caching. Clear the cache within the caching plugin or purge the server cache to ensure that the latest changes are being served.

                  Plugin compatibility: Check if the generic plugin you're using for title and meta updates is compatible with your current version of WordPress. If the plugin hasn't been updated in a while, it may not work correctly with the latest WordPress version. In that case, consider finding an alternative plugin or contacting the plugin developer for support.

                  Manual inspection: If you've exhausted the above steps and the issue still persists, you may need to manually inspect your website's code. Use the browser's developer tools to inspect the source code and search for the specific hard-coded title tag. This will help identify where it's coming from and allow you to make the necessary modifications directly in the code.

                  Remember to take a backup of your WordPress site and its database before making any changes to your theme files or modifying the code.

                    Unsolved Capturing Source Dynamically for UTM Parameters

                    technical seo google analytics utm parameters

                    Does anyone have a tutorial on how to dynamically capture the referring source to be populated in UTM parameters for Google Analytics? We want to syndicate content and be able to see all of the websites that provided referral traffic for this specific objective. We want to set a specific utm_medium and utm_campaign but have the utm_source be dynamic and capture the referring website. If we set a permanent utm_source, it would appear the same for all incoming traffic. Thanks in advance!

                    Solved How to solve orphan pages on a job board

                    technical seo

                    Working on a website that has a job board, and over 4000 active job ads. All of these ads are listed on a single "job board" page, and don’t obviously all load at the same time. They are not linked to from anywhere else, so all tools are listing all of these job ad pages as orphans. How much of a red flag are these orphan pages? Do sites like Indeed have this same issue? Their job ads are completely dynamic, how are these pages then indexed? We use Google’s Search API to handle any expired jobs, so they are not the issue. It’s the active, but orphaned pages we are looking to solve. The site is hosted on WordPress. What is the best way to solve this issue? Just create a job category page and link to each individual job ad from there? Any simpler and perhaps more obvious solutions? What does the website structure need to be like for the problem to be solved? Would appreciate any advice you can share!

                    Redirect and ranking issue

                    Hi there - was wondering whether someone might be able to help. For a period of a day and a half, all the traffic to our website's blog articles were mistakenly being redirected to our homepage. A number of these articles ranked in the top 5 in Google worldwide for their targeted keywords, so this was a considerable amount of organic traffic that was instantly being redirected. It was a strange site glitch and our web team rectified the error, but now all these articles have disappeared from Google rankings (not visible anywhere in the first five pages). I'm presuming this must be linked to this redirect issue - we've been advised to wait and see whether Google restores these rankings, but I'm still concerned as to whether this represents a more serious problem? We have re-indexed the pages we are most concerned about, but am not sure whether there is anything else obvious we should think to do. If anyone has any thoughts, I'd be happy to hear them!

                    Google serp pagination issue

                    We are a local real estate company and have landing pages for different communities and cities around our area that display the most recent listings. For example: www.mysite.com/wa/tumwater is our landing page for the city of Tumwater homes for sale. Google has indexed most of our landing pages, but for whatever reason they are displaying either page 2, 3, 4 etc... instead of page 1.  Our Roy, WA landing page is another example. www.mysite.com/wa/roy has recently been showing up on page 1 of Google for "Roy WA homes for sale", but now we are much further down and www.mysite.com/wa/roy?start=80 (page 5) is the only page in the serps. (coincidentally we no longer have 5 pages worth of listings for this city, so this link now redirects to www.mysite.com/wa/roy.) We haven't made any major recent changes to the site. Any help would be much appreciated! *You can see what my site is in the attached image... I just don't want this post to show up when someone google's the actual name of the business 🙂 nTTrSMx.jpg C4mhfgh.jpg
