8 Reasons Why Your Site Might Not Get Indexed

When the new website is launched, you should first think of whether the search engines have indexed your site or not. If they don't then your site may not appear in search results position.
So, let’s check about it.

Identifying Crawling Problems 

The very first step of identifying is to type in search box (site: example.com) and check how many pages you have and how many of them were indexed. Comparing with your actual pages, if Google is showing low amount of pages then your site is in problem.
Then the second thing is to look at Google webmaster tools report. If there are any crawl errors in the site then it displays in the dashboard. The 404 error which shows a page link cannot be found. If there are 301 errors in your site, then the site is not projected to your visitors.

Fixing Crawling Errors

Here are some types of Issues caused by the following reasons:

Robots.Txt

The Robot.txt is a text file in websites which allows search engine spiders/bots to crawl or index a website. It appears in the root of your website. The robots.txt file works for specific bots to allow or hide the directories or files within the robots.txt file.

Structure of Robots.txt file

User Agent: *
Disallow

.htaccess

It is the configuration file used in web servers to control features of the server. The .htaccess file controls and redirect the pages easily. It gives control on your site, and keeps the data saved for htaccess file. So in this way you can recover from a site crash.

Meta Tags:

Meta Tags are special set of HTML tags that contains information about the webpage and its contents. Search engine robots are programmed to read meta tags regarding the web page. The main meta tags that spiders read are description and keyword meta tag. If the page is not getting indexed, check the meta tags in the source code.

Site Maps:

Sitemap is an XML file. It is a structure of the links of website through which a visitor can navigate to any part of website. Try to place the site map on all important pages of the website including the homepage so that it can be easily detected by the search engines and more Google Page Rank can flow to the sitemap.

Poor Internal Linking Structure:

This is very rare case but one must be aware of poor internal linking structure which can cause indexing problems. A good internal linking structure gives success to the website.

Page Rank

Number of Pages Google crawl is related to your page rank.

Connectivity or DNS Issues:

Whenever the site is under maintenance or moved to a new home, in such cases the DNS delegation of crawler access takes place.

Keyword Rank is Still Important

When you perform a search on the search engines, keywords are the key roles. 25% of the search algorithm depends on keywords only. So for a smart business the owner must be able to choose the keywords which are valuable to his/her business.

An idea to separate the keywords by their ranking is important for a business. Every page should contain the relevant terms that will provide the search engine traffic. Depending on those keywords your page will be displayed in the search results.

Google Adwords is the best tool to find the targeting keywords. By using this keyword tool you can easily determine the keywords which you have to target.

Important factors to keep in mind while you are doing keyword research:

Relevancy: The keyword must be relevant to your service. This will provide the right people to click through your website.

Traffic: You have to choose a keyword that most people enter into the search engines. It generates good traffic.

Competition: Focus on the keywords of other sites which are ranking better in search engine result pages.

Commerciality: Choose the keyword which is best explained by Market Samurai when considered keyword rank.

High commerciality keywords generate large amount of profits than low commerciality keywords.

It is better to write content for a website after the keyword research to improve the keyword rank; otherwise you may or may not improve the rank. Check your keyword rank by using Google analytics account.

Anchor Text Optimization

Anchor text is a hyperlink which directs the webpage from the location to another webpage. It is a visible text in blue colored with underline characters. Usually anchor text is a group of characters or words or an image which is a clickable text.
For example: In a sentence if Google is an anchor text, when a user clicks on it then it directs to https://www.google.co.in/.

In HTML coding, hyperlinks can be created by using href attributes. Href refers to hyper text reference which consists of link location. Syntax for anchor text is

 

Anchor text optimization: It is one of the major seo tools which can rank a page in better position by using rich keywords in a specific hyperlink. In this optimization, the content in the landing page should be more relevant to the keyword or phrase in the anchor text so that search engines give importance to it thereby rank position varies to better position.

Anchor text optimization can be done in two ways, internally and externally. Internal optimization refers to optimizing of anchor texts which are linking to a particular page can be within a website from other pages. Whereas, external optimization is optimizing of anchor texts in inbound links which are linking back to the website.

The hyperlink helps users to get the relevant content pointing to other web page for their search. Anchor text is one of the major seo tools that is helpful to rank a page by search engines. Sometimes anchor texts are misused instead of landing to right page may direct to some other irrelevant page that is not usable to user. This leads to rank lower to that home page and in turn traffic may also decrease.

To improve page ranking, you can create a few number of deep links to home page with hyperlinks. Use relevant keywords and phrases in anchor text so that a reader can understand easily. Use short description in anchor text instead of lengthy description. Use different synonyms instead of one for particular keyword. Quality back links improve page rank to better position by search engines.

Google Videos Best Practices for How to deal with Most Common Problems Create When Crawling and Indexing Video Content

We'd like to highlight three best practices that deal with some of the most common problems create when crawling and indexing video content. These three practices includes ensuring your video URLs are crawlable, stating what countries your videos may be played in, and that if your videos are removed, you obviously point out this state to search engines.

1: Verify your video URLs are crawlable: check your robots.txt

Sometimes video URLs are included by the publishers in the Sitemap which are excluded by robots.txt. Care must be taken that your robots.txt file isn't blocking any of the URLs in your Sitemap which includes URLs for the:

• Play page
• Content and player
• Thumbnail

2: Tell us what countries the video may be played in

• Is your video only offered in some locales? The elective attribute “restriction” has newly been added.
• You have a choice of telling search engines where to play your videos and where not to play. With the tag, you have the choice of either including a record of all countries where it can be played, or just telling us the countries where it can't be played. If your videos can be played all over, then you don't need to include this.

3: Indicate clearly when videos are removed -- protect the user experience

Sometimes publishers take videos down but don't signal to search engines that they've done so. This can effect in the search engine's index not precisely reflecting content of the web. Then when users click on a search result, they're taken to a page either representing that the video doesn't live, or to a different video. Viewers find this experience dissatisfy. Although we have mechanisms to notice when search results do no longer exist, we strongly recommend following community principles.

To signal that a video has been removed,

1. Return a 404 (Not found) HTTP response code, you can still return a cooperative page to be display to your users. Follow these practices to create effective 404 pages.
2. Indicate expiration dates for every video listed in a Video Sitemap (use the element) or mRSS feed ( tag) submitted to Google.

404 Error Page, soft 404 Error, Practices, Page Not Found 404, Error 404 Page Not Found

404 Error

A 404 error page will appear when a visitor sends a request for a non-existing page on the site. It may be because of visitor clicked on broken link, page has been moved or deleted or visitor has mistyped a URL. 404 error is called because web server will send HTTP 404 error when a request is send by visitor for a web page if the page does not exists. Depending on ISP 404 error page will vary, it will not provide useful information to visitor and many users may quit from the site. We can solve this by giving useful information to the user providing a good custom 404 error page. We can create 404 error page as standard HTML page.

The following are the steps which can guide visitor of what they are searching for when they come across 404 error page:

• Tell visitor clearly that page they are searching for cannot be found.
• Try to have same look and feel of the webpage when a custom 404 error page appears.
• Make sure that ISP will return actual HTTP 404 error page instead of custom 404 page because there is a chance of Google to crawl custom 404 page and appear in SERPs.
• Tell Google of your site’s move using Change of Address tool.

Soft 404

We have two types of 404 on the web they are “Hard 404” and “Soft 404” or “Crypto 404”. Hard 404 is the page which appears when a web page does not exist which will be provided by the ISP or Web Server.  Soft 404 occurs when the non-existing page which visitor have requested have been linked to 200 response code. The 200 response code can be site home page url that does not exist or an error page.

This confusion can make search engines to crawl and index a non exist duplicate urls on the site. This may cause crawlers and bots not to visit frequently the exact website. To prevent it try to use a 404 error page and clearly specify that the searching url or information does not exist.

The following are the steps to correct Soft 404:

• Check soft 404 listed in the website using Webmaster Tools.
• Check navigation of 404 error page, 301 redirection and 200 response code page is correctly responding or not.
• Configure properly of HTTP response by Fetch as Googlebot of Webmaster Tools.

Conclusion: Using Webmaster tools, regularly check for Soft 404 and correct it for a website and insist to have a 404 error page provided by ISP or web server.  Check for the navigation of all the pages including 404, 301 and 200 responses of a website in order to not a have a confusion to visitor of a website, crawlers and bots of search engines. By the above steps, we can provide clear and specified information to the visitor and search engines.

Google Sitemap New Features - One File, Many Content Types.

Sitemaps: one file, many content types:

Google has introduced an astonishing feature that we can now submit various content types like image, video, mobile url, code, geo, etc. of our site in a single sitemap file because  now Google supports such  sitemap with different content types.

Google webmaster trends analyst “Jonathan Simon” has explained that the site owners are leveraging sitemaps as they wanted Google to know about their sites. As we know sitemaps are introduced first in 2005, from that time onwards additional specialized sitemap format was introduced for better accommodation of video, images, mobile or geographic content. As number of specialized formats is increasing, it is much easier for sitemap which supports the inclusion of multiple content types in the single sitemap file.

The sitemap structure with multiple content types is said to be similar as standard sitemap which supports additional ability referencing the urls of different content types. The following example shows the sitemap that which refers to standard webpage for web search, image reference for image search, video reference for video search.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9"
        xmlns:image="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap-image/1.1"
        xmlns:video="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap-video/1.1">
  <url>
    <loc>http://www.example.com/foo.html</loc>
    <image:image>
       <image:loc>http://example.com/image.jpg</image:loc>
    </image:image>
    <video:video>
    <video:content_loc>http://www.example.com/videoABC.flv</video:content_loc>   
      <video:title>Grilling tofu for summer</video:title>
    </video:video>
  </url>
</urlset>

 Here we can see it in webmaster tools how the multiple content types are submitted:

Let’s hope that the inclusion of multiple content types in a single sitemap simplifies sitemap submission. The other sitemap rules, like submission of maximum 50,000 urls in single file and file size limit of 10 MB uncompressed is still applied.

Google’s Speedy Enhancements Save You Time and Keystrokes

Google’s Speedy Enhancements Save You Time and Keystrokes

Speed is a general subject at Google. The idea and the aim of speed are baked into all departments of Google products, starting from Google Chrome to Google web search. Frequently, Google also simply develop features that help out to respond quickly for all the query terms. Whether by bringing the precise content that we look for by displaying it at the top of the search results page or by optimizing the method you search. Several of these speed enhancements save you time and keystrokes.

Two New Features Of Google This week

Sunrise and Sunset Search feature

The Sunrise and Sunset Search feature can be helpful forever to know exactly when you can look to get the best time for a morning jog or while arranging the best and exact moment for a wedding proposal. This week, Google is very much ready to launch a Sunrise and Sunset feature for search. The Sunrise and Sunset Search feature presents you the precise times of sunsets and sunrises for any location in the world. In contrast to the weather, sunrises and sunsets are fairly predictable, and accordingly, Google don't use a data source. Instead it relies on latitude, longitude and the current time and it calculates sunrise and sunset times. This calculation has been of attention to mathematicians and astronomers for millennia, thus they’ve had time to get it just right. And for the most of the locations, it’s accurate to within a single minute.

Google Search by Voice & more languages

Google Search by people’s Voice enables to search the web more rapidly than ever before by getting your responses with smaller number keystrokes. Initially, this Google Search by Voice service was launched in English, and was offered in the U.S., U.K., India, Australia and New Zealand. Later Google introduced this Google Search by Voice service in Japanese and Mandarin and expanded it to the number of possible users. Just a week ago, Google launched the service German, in French, Italian and Spanish. Known that local languages are major aspects in the performance of speech recognition. Google first launched this service in the four countries mainly closely linked with Spanish, French and German languages. This week Google focused on Korean and the launch in Taiwan of Traditional Mandarin.

How to start Google Search by Voice Feature

By visiting the Google mobile page of our country's domain (e.g.  In France go to m.google.fr) we can download the application to our phone’s operating system in our locale. This Google Search by Voice feature will be available for Android, iPhone and Blackberry phones. Eventually, Google’s goal is to bring Google Search by voice feature to speakers of all languages, hence keep on reading for more announcements.

In Title Tag: Importance for the keyword in the title tag is 66% and considered to be very high. Blogging provides an option of generating new webpages continuously, all with keyword-rich title tags. Generally in blogging title tag is taken from headlines and following SEO practices means already integrating keywords anyway.

First word of Title Tag: Importance for keyword using as first word of title tag is very high and of 63%. The very first word always attracts the reader and creates interest. So by positioning the keyword in the beginning always benefits. And choose the keyword keeping first the reader in mind then optimizations.

In Root Domain Name: Importance for keyword using in root domain name is of 60% and considered to be very high. If it is to boost ranking company name through blogging, attach the blog to your sub-directory or sub domain. (Ex. bipsum.com/blog or blog.bipsum.com)

Page-Specific Link Popularity Factors for Ranking:

Keyword-Focused Anchor Text: Very High-Importance of 73%. When we create links, others will use our titles or headlines and this can be another reason for placing keywords in headlines. And many visitors may attract to the anchor text keywords we use.

External Link Popularity: Very High-Importance of 71%. Sharing blog through good social media channels like twitter, face book, digg etc. creates a chance of more quality links and quantity too.

Fake PR (Page Rank) Websites and Link Exchange

Fake PR (Page Rank) Websites and Link Exchange

I got a message for link exchange with a PR5 with any PR3+ link exchange in return. You might be getting such requests so; I thought to bring this notice to you.

This message sounds irregular if anyone is requesting for link exchange for less page rank compare to there existing website. Mostly, such people if ever ask for low PR websites.

If the website has page rank 5 and contains very less back links, hardly any content and no life then this is one of the cases of having FAKE Page Rank.

A fake page rank website can earn a lot of money if you are smart enough to hide it properly. But there is always a solution for every problem and similarly they are always ways to detect a web site that has a fake page rank.

At present I don’t have any idea that Google has taken any serious action against such web sites or plans to take later on but at present I will explain tips to detect such web sites before getting into any kind of deal (link exchanges, buying links etc) with them.

In this article, I want to share my views to you, how to know that a website having a fake page rank or not. This article or post may help you to save you a lot of money.

Four Steps to Detect a Fake Page Rank:

1. Check PageRank using a PageRank checker tool.
2. Search: info:http://URL in Google
3. Look at the URL listed at the bottom of the first result in green
4. If the URL is different then the one that you put in first then it is a FAKE PageRank.
5. Open Google.com and search for info:http://url.com. then you can notice that as, the enter URL in green is different from display URL. This means that the PageRank is fake.

Importance of Email id for Directory Submission

A process of submitting a URL to various free seo directories and paid directories either by manually or by automatic software. We can find in all directories submission form has email column which is compulsory in all cases. So if we have email ID and that to domain email id is good for submission because editor have confident that submission is genuine.

Why it should be separate valid email the reason are:

• To avoid spamming in submission to directories
• At the time of listing a website, some directories publish your Email ID and there are more chances that your email will be in spammer list.
• After submissions of website to particular directory, we get auto response for submission thanks and followed by other mails which will fill your Inbox.
• Some web directories send confirmation email to verify the authentication of submission and separator account is helpful for staff or outside Submission Company to handle such verification.
• In some cases few web directories require account creation process and then verification link or email for web directory to make a conformation of submission.
• Use for communication from directory editor regarding approval or rejection of your site.

So you must have separate valid email ID either of your own domain or on some free email provider i.e Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail etc.

Even if you you don’t want to implement any of these suggestions or to fallow, we strongly support you to pay very close concentration to the "Quality Guidelines, Design and content guidelines”

Design and Content Guidelines:

• Website should contain unique information and keyword rich.
• Create a site map to your visitors. Sitemap file contain all important category’s links of your website. If your site map is crossing more than 100 links then, create the separate pages for site map.
• Target that keyword for which visitors can find your website, and make sure that your website actually includes those words within it.
• Use text instead of images to display important names, content, or links.
• Write a unique title and description for all WebPages related to content.
• Check and modify the broken links in the website.

• Don’t place more then 100 links in a page.

Technical Guidelines:

• Avoid using fancy features like such as JavaScript, cookies, session IDs, frames, DHTML, or Flash because most search engine spiders can’t crawl your website.
• Allow search bots to crawl your sites without session IDs or arguments that track their path through the site.
• Make sure your web server supports the If-Modified-Since HTTP header.
• Make use of the robots.txt file on your web server. This file tells crawlers which directories can or cannot be crawled. Place the file in root level of the website.
• If your company buys a content management system, make sure that the system can export your content so that search engine spiders can crawl your site.
