Hi Can u any one help me why google is not showing my site home page in search engine.i have total 2000 posts and around 1000 posts are indexed except home page.please help me. Url for my site www.bharathcinemas.info Thanks, Bharath.
Interesting case - I can confirm your home page does not appear on the Google SERP for the term bharathcinemas. It ought to be on the first page, and even first position as it's your domain brand. You may have been slapped with a penalty - has your Google organic traffic dropped significantly? Marc
Hi Marc, Thanks for your reply. how to check penalty from google webmaster?? few times google organic traffic dropped and my site indexed pages came to below 100.now it is ok only problem is home page is not showing.please help me if u have any idea. Thanks, Bharath
There are lot of tools available to check penalty.You can try this one... tools.seomoves.org/penaltychecker/
Because you're blocking robots/spiders to crawl you're frontpage... check you're source code. First you have this: <meta name="ROBOTS" content="ALL" /> HTML: And then few lines after: <meta name="robots" content="noindex,follow,noodp,noarchive,noydir" /> HTML: Noindex? Why?
PS! You're whole source code is bollocks, you're over using shitty SEO plug-ins, most of the meta tags are duplicate and loads of unnecessary things...
Hi joak 1m, Thanks a lot for your help,please help me reg this issue,i am using AllinoneSEO PLUGIN.how can i do better SEO. Thanks again for your help Bharathcinemas
Bharathcinemas, All in one SEO plugin is just fine. You are using something called "metadata inserted by keyword-statistics-plugin 1.7.5" which fucks things up. Get rid of that plug-in, for some reason it is adding meta code to block search engines to index your first page, and you should be just fine! Let me know if you have removed the plug-in and I check your page again to make sure the code is ok. + this topic is in wrong sub-forum
Yea, it's all good now. Probably you have to wait few days when Google realizes you don't want to block your home page anymore from crawling.
If this is the case, then you should check the amount of traffic coming to your site from Search Engine traffic and the keywords people use to get to your site. If you see a decrease in both then you can realize that Google has penalized you for something. Check your links and start over choosing the right keywords to build your trust again. Like already said, your site should be on the first page first result if they search by your brand name.
