Google Search Console Crawling Non-Existent URLs Leading to 404 Errors – Need Advice I’m currently dealing with an issue in **Google Search Console** where non-existent URLs are being crawled, leading to multiple 404 errors. These URLs appear incorrect, as if extra paths are being appended to existing pages. For example, a file-based page URL is extended with another file name, creating a structure that doesn’t exist. 2 0 replies
Did Google just throw out yet another tubload of babies with the bathwater? For my Art Nouveau related website I was doing research on a German architect Emil Kärn. When I type "Emil Kärn architect" (with no quotes) into Google here's what I see: the hit #1 is a page that doesn't even contain either "Emil" or "Kärn" and obviously has absolutely no relevance to the query (WTF, Google?). Most of the rest of the hits have nothing to do either but a few are about buildings built by Emil Kärn - simply mentioning him by name with no biographical info. Someone... 4 0 replies
How's My Site Performance Looking - EARLY Hi there, I'm working on a blog/authority site and trying to figure out if my site is headed in the right direction for long-term growth. Not sure how to ask this in an un-spammy way with no images/links, but basically I've got a site that I've really started putting work in(on a recent domain) and in Mid-October I had 10-20 Google Impressions (No Clicks), November 40-50 Impressions (0-1 Click a day), and December is at 60-80 Impressions a day (0-2 Clicks a day). 5 0 replies
Building an AI agent for SaaS SEO, need help Hey guys, I am building an agent that will create 100s of articles for SaaS companies (MOFU) keywords. It's almost ready but I want to have it integrated with Semrush and the API is only available at their Business plan which I don't need for anything else atm, seems like overkill.

Anyone in the construction or metalworks niche interested in trading backlinks? Probably going to get downvoted for this, but my business is seasonal and I can’t justify spending cash on anything right now, so I’ve been trying to find places to guest blog or trade links and it’s taking me forever. I own a company in the metal construction space and am looking to trade backlinks. If I can figure out a way to work your company naturally into an article we’ve already written, I’ll do that, if not, then I will write a new article. I would like a... 4 0 replies
Is backlink from websites which traffic is 0 helpful for ranking? I used ahrefs to get some high related backlinks for my industry. Recently I just noticed that some high related backlinks with DA >30 HAS NO TRAFFIC，which had large traffic several months ago but now had no traffic.

piano community site is getting aggressively de-indexed by Google Google Search Console shows me that the site is being aggressively de-indexed with most pages now "Crawled - currently not indexed". There are no manual actions or any red flags that I could see in GSC... but manual indexing requests or re-validation hasn't helped. Bing seems to be quite happy with the site. Based on all that I've read, it seems my case is completely hopeless? Or is there anything actionable I can do here? Thanks a lot for any help you might have. 3 0 replies
Guest posts? So I usually don't offer guest posting on sites I build for my customers. I have a customer in the boating industry that's demanding I make a separate page just for guest posts and more importantly that we advertise for guest posting and link exchange. I'm pretty sure this violates google best practices specifically the link exchange. The questions I have is should I do this just to make the customer happy? And am I unleashing hell on myself by doing this? 1 0 replies
New Site Outranking Very Popular Site I have a brand new site that has about 20 posts. Listed in in GSC a few weeks ago. Zero backlinks. Many of the articles aren't even finished being written. But we do rank in top 40 for a few keywords. When I noticed that I was getting impression on a keyword I looked at it a bit further and noticed I rank just above a website that is one of the most popular in the industry. I know the owner of that publication. It has been around for... 1 0 replies
Local Pack - Allowing suggested services by hitting "OK" (Help or hurt?) >"Services were changed based on feedback from Google users or other sources. Review these published updates to make sure they are accurate." \[EDIT\] \[OK\] Has anyone found that hitting "OK" actually helps your visibility, after manually optimizing it to the best of your ability? I've found that allowing all these repetitive keywords into your services actually hurts more than helps. Just seeing what others experience. Thanks 1 0 replies

I don't show up in searches I’ve had my website since 2010 and don’t even show up at all on The Hoth Search Engine Rankings. My site literally doesn’t even show up if you Google my exact website domain name without the .com. Needless to say, you couldn’t possibly be worse at this than me. If anyone is willing, can I DM you my url to see the low hanging fruit. I’m especially interested if you happen to run an SEO agency. 2 0 replies

Focus Keywords For context, our page's focus keyword is "Ultimate Snake Identification Guide." RankMath recommends adding a power word along with a positive or negative sentiment to boost SEO. My concern is whether this will really help with SEO. While I understand the importance of power words, RankMath also suggests using sentiment in the focus keyword and across subheadings, which may make the content feel bloated. Our page is already structured as follows: * **H1:** Sydney's Ultimate Snake Identification Guide * **H2:** Sydney's Ultimate Snake Identification Guide: Venomous Snakes * **H3:**... 1 0 replies

It doesn't show my products or collections at all. its also showing 247 pages not indexed... 2 0 replies
I'm literally the only person in the world with my exact name/spelling (... or was until a few months ago). I'm really not exaggerating. My first name is so unique that I was literally the only person who ever came up in a Google search. Professionally, a blessing, because it required absolutely no effort to promote whatever I wanted to about my image/reputation. Socially, a curse because I had to be *super* careful to make sure I was never tagged in anything "untoward." I'm a lawyer and my work is *heavily* traditional/formal, so image is incredibly important. And it needs to be as politically & socially neutral as possible.... 3 0 replies
Moving my site to new host, and new url; how to keep old status in google searches I'm just an academic. My academic site about me is hosted by my institution, and a dumb long URL of their choice. It is outdated, and I used some old program that no one supports anymore to design it, and my institution has made it harder to update. I'm just going to move to something simple and basic like Wix, or weebly or whatever. I'll register my own domain, etc. But, I have good search placement currently, #1 on some searches, perhaps just because I put the full text... 5 0 replies
