          We were ranked on first page among top 5 position a year ago for most of our pages. On one fine day, google decided to drop us from the results although google keeps indexing our pages. Google index our pages regularly but doesn't show them in its results. All google traffic we receive is for our own site name and its variations.

          I wanted to know - how do we know if google has panelized us. Why has google panelized us ? If they have panelized us, what can we do to get out of it ?

          Also I wanted to know if any tool will help me identify such thing. We have not done any link building. Our site page rank is 4 (it was 5 few months ago). All we did was on page optimization.

          Thanks for your help!

              I PMed you details but our pages are indexed by google regularly (daily and weekly) so it is confusing.

                Also, if you haven't yet, you might also want to set up the Google Webmaster Tools.  Once you get re-included, if something like this happened again, you'd see your # of impressions drop drastically from within their search queries report.  If you set up the Bing webmaster tools as well, you could compare the two to see if Google is truly penalizing you.

                  Thanks. I think I can see where the main problems are... you have quite a few ads and loads, and loads of outgoing links with very little unique content. The majority of the content you have there is fed in through affiliate programs and so will exist in many other places too.

                  I would suggest that you separate a lot of what you have on the homepage into different categories and landing pages, at the same time as adding some static and unique content on each.

                  After doing that, fill out a re-inclusion request with Google.

                  Usually when people think they've been penalized it turns out they haven't and there's just some other issue but I think you most likely have been penalized in this case.

                    We did change the website but that was around around 1.5 years ago - However, ranking it comes and goes back...so for a week or so we get ranking back - once in a while (happened twice or three times so far) but then they go back.

                          Sounds like you did nothing wrong but change your website which can cause stuff like that to happen. Wait it out and you should be back.

                            Is it best to redirect an old website to a new website page by page to like pages or just the entire site all at once to the home page of the new site? I do have about 10 good pages on the site that are worth directing to corresponding pages on the new site. Just trying to figure out what is going to preserve the most link juice. Thanks for the help!

                            My website is constantly decreasing

                            loss of ranking

                            For few weeks ago my website is constantly decreasing in search position. I lost keywords and is gooooing down.
                            Although it is well rated on several on page and off page seo verification software that I have tried.
                            I checked Google search console and Analytics and found no major problems. However… from one day to another it keeps going down.
                            I also checked what the main competitors are doing and they are not doing well, at all.
                            The main competitor actually has a creepy website. Totally devoid of onpage or offpage SEO but with an enormous number of backlinks. And of a very bad quality, which should disqualify it, still…
                            Few weeks ago I changed something.
                            In the pages I had H1, 4xH2, no H3 and an H4 without content.
                            An unnatural H tag structure.
                            Now I have H1, H2, H3, 3xH4, with the coherent information.
                            Theoretically, Google should have been “happy” or I’m missing something. I use a SAAS platform.
                            I just found out that they made changes to the keywords (tags).
                            I am selling toner cartridges for printers.
                            So…
                            The tags are printer models and generate a url in which they have the products.
                            Ex. https://www.sertit.ro/cartus-imprimanta-cilindru-color-hp-laserjet-pro-m-177fw goes to the products for that printer model.
                            The question is… should I make tag canonical?
                            Is it possible for products to loose so much in Google search?

                            Will Google crawl and rank our ReactJS website content?

                            We have 250+ products dynamically inserted and sorted on our site daily (more specifically our homepage... yes, it's a long page). Our dev team would like to explore rendering the page server-side using ReactJS. We currently use a CDN to cache all the content, which of course we would like to continue using. SO... will Google be able to crawl that content? We've read some articles with different ideas (including prerendering): http://andrewhfarmer.com/react-seo/
                            http://www.seoskeptic.com/json-ld-big-day-at-google/ If we were to only load the schema important to the page  (like product title, image, price, description, etc.) from the server and then let the client render the remaining content (comments, suggested products, etc.), would that go against best practices? It seems like that might be seen as showing the googlebot 1 version and showing the site visitor a different (more complete) version.

                            We have a client whose website was hacked, and some troll created thousands of viagra pages, which were all indexed by Google.  See the screenshot for an example.  The site has been cleaned up completely, but I wanted to know if anyone can weigh in on how we can cleanup the Google index.  Are there extra steps we should take?  So far we have gone into webmaster tools and submitted a new site map. ^802D799E5372F02797BE19290D8987F3E248DCA6656F8D9BF6^pimgpsh_fullsize_distr.png

                            I have been searching around but unable to gather information as to how we can control or list  top pages of a website on Google's first page , i.e. if we type seomoz in google , we can see the main listing with 6 subdomain listings , which link to Blog , Seo tool , Beginner Seo guide , Learn Seo , Pricing & Plans and login My question is can we control these listings i.e. what to display and what not , and if yes how can we make this type of visibility on first page , by using html or xml sitemaps or theirs something mostly websites are missing. Cause this type of data is coming up for very less websites and mostly websites are with single urls. c43Ki.jpg

                            Why are Google search results different if you are log'd into Google or not?

                            I get different results when I'm log'd into my Google account associated with my website than if I'm not.  The same country is occurring. So how can I rely on the google results I'm seeing? For instance my site is page 1 with the improvements I made based on SEOMOZ if I'm log'd in.  Yet I'm not on the first 25 pages if I'm not logged in.
