          Hello.

          I have a problem of page indexing without content. I have website in 3 different languages and 2 of the pages are indexing just fine, but one language page (the most important one) is indexing without content. When searching using site: page comes up, but when searching unique keywords for which I should rank 100% nothing comes up.

          This page was indexing just fine and the problem arose couple of days ago after google update finished. Looking further, the problem is language related and every page in the given language that is newly indexed has this problem, while pages that were last crawled around one week ago are just fine.

          Has anyone ran into this type of problem?

            I've encountered a similar indexing issue on my website, https://sunasusa.com/. To resolve it, ensure that the language markup and content accessibility on the affected pages are correct. Review any recent changes and the quality of your content. Utilize Google Search Console for insights, or consider reaching out to Google support for assistance.

              To remove hacked URLs in bulk from Google's index, clean up your website, secure it, and then use Google Search Console to request removal of the unwanted URLs. Additionally, submit a new sitemap containing only valid URLs to expedite re-indexing.

                It seems that after a recent Google update, one language version of your website is experiencing indexing issues, while others remain unaffected. This could be due to factors like changes in algorithms or technical issues. To address this:

                1. Check h reflag tags and content quality.
                2. Review technical aspects like crawlability and indexing directives. Deck Services in Duluth GA
                3. Monitor Google Search Console for errors.
                4. Consider seeking expert assistance if needed.

                  @AtuliSulava Re: Website blog is hacked. Whats the best practice to remove bad urls

                  something similar problem also happened to me. many urls are indexed but they have no content in actual. My website(scaleme) was hacked and thousands of URLs with Japanese content were added to my site. These URLs are now indexed by Google. How can I remove them in bulk? (ScreenShoot attached)
                  scaleme.org hacked.PNG

                  I am the owner of this website. thousands of Japanese-language URLs (more than 4400) were added to my site. i am aware with google url remover tool but adding one by one url and submitting for removing is not possible because there are large number of url indexed by google.

                  Is there a way to find these url , downlaod a list and remove these URLs in bulk? is Moz have any tool to solve this problem?

                      @AtuliSulava It sounds like you're experiencing a frustrating issue with your website's indexing. I have faced this issue. Unfortunately, I have prevented my website from indexing in google by mistake. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the problem:

                      Check Robots.txt: Ensure that your site's robots.txt file is not blocking search engine bots from accessing the content on the affected pages.
                      Review Meta Tags: Check the <meta name="robots" content="noindex"> tag on the affected pages. If present, remove it to allow indexing.
                      Content Accessibility: Make sure that the content on the affected pages is accessible to search engine bots. Check for any JavaScript, CSS, or other elements that might be blocking access to the content.
                      Canonical Tags: Verify that the canonical tags on the affected pages are correctly pointing to the preferred version of the page.
                      Structured Data Markup: Ensure that your pages have correct structured data markup to help search engines understand the content better.
                      Fetch as Google: Use Google Search Console's "Fetch as Google" tool to see how Googlebot sees your page and if there are any issues with rendering or accessing the content.
                      Monitor Google Search Console: Keep an eye on Google Search Console for any messages or issues related to indexing and crawlability of your site.
                      Wait for Re-crawl: Sometimes, Google's indexing issues resolve themselves over time as the search engine re-crawls and re-indexes your site. If the problem persists, consider requesting a re-crawl through Google Search Console.
                      If the issue continues, it might be beneficial to seek help from a professional SEO consultant who can perform a detailed analysis of your website and provide specific recommendations tailored to your situation.

                        @AtuliSulava Perhaps indexing of blank pages is prohibited on this site, look for more information on how to check the ban on indexing in which site files...

                          Google not listing website correctly

                          google listing seo website submission

                          have a domain that was unused for a while and displayed the "parked by Gandi" domain message. Recently, I decided to set up a fully working website on that domain, but I'm struggling to get it to rank correctly on Google. Google isn't updating the http://domain.com to the correct https://www.domain.com, and I have tried everything. The http://domain.com redirects to https://www.domain.com if you click on it. I managed to get the correct version, https://www.domain.com, to show up, but after a couple of days, it reverted to the old version and has stayed that way. This has been going on for a few weeks now. Additionally, I had an old version of the site using .com, and I forwarded that to the .co.uk, but the old .com will not be removed from Google. it was just one page without much content. At the moment, Google's search results look very messy and out of date. I have submitted the URL in the Google Search Console using the URL inspection tool and requested indexing and reindexing. I have also submitted sitemaps, but nothing is really working. Any ideas?

                          How to Get a New Organic SERP Image Pack

                          serp seo image optimisation

                          I have been doing a little on-page SEO on our site today and came across the following images embedded within organic SERPs, please see the screenshot. Obviously the users eye is drawn to these and therefore they are likely to result in more clicks. It would be great to know what they are called and how to go about getting these for our own results? If we managed to implement these across our site it would make a big difference for us, as working in the travel space, images are so strong when painting a picture of the destination. Thanks

                          Google Not Indexing Pages (Wordpress)

                          google search console indexed urls indexation

                          Hello, recently I started noticing that google is not indexing our new pages or our new blog posts. We are simply getting a "Discovered - Currently Not Indexed" message on all new pages. When I click "Request Indexing" is takes a few days, but eventually it does get indexed and is on Google. This is very strange, as our website has been around since the late 90's and the quality of the new content is neither duplicate nor "low quality". We started noticing this happening around February. We also do not have many pages - maybe 500 maximum? I have looked at all the obvious answers (allowing for indexing, etc.), but just can't seem to pinpoint a reason why. Has anyone had this happen recently? It is getting very annoying having to manually go in and request indexing for every page and makes me think there may be some underlying issues with the website that should be fixed.

                          Is it better to use XXX.com or XXX.com/index.html as canonical page

                          Is it better to use 301 redirects or canonical page? I suspect canonical is easier. The question is, which is the best canonical page, YYY.com or YYY.com/indexhtml? I assume YYY.com, since there will be many other pages such as YYY.com/info.html, YYY.com/services.html, etc.
