Should I better noindex 'scripted' files in our portfolio?
Hey Arnout, I would do a few things: 1. You should be able to edit the html code of each presentation to add to the meta title of the page. That should be a solid starting point. I know that is tedious but it will help you cover your bases. It looks like you are doing that already. 2. I would still disallow the directory via robots.txt. 3. #2 should work but as an extra, you could add a rel = no follow link property to the places where you link to that specific section. Here's a link for more details on that: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/96569?hl=en 4. To speed the process up, I would use the search console and request to remove the directory Hopefully that helps!

Is Search Visibility giving a fair comparison with your competition?
It is important to keep in mind that the Search Visibility metric relates only to the keywords you are tracking, so it isn't exactly correct to say that the Search Visibility score is skewed if you are tracking branded keywords. This is an accurate visibility score for the keywords you are tracking. You can definitely see the Search Visibility for all of your non-branded keywords by using the filters as you suggested, which will give you a different perspective of your Search Visibility versus your competitors. However, you could say that, in and of itself, the score is somewhat skewed just by the fact that these are the keywords you have chosen to target, rather than the total Search Visibility for all of the keywords you and your competitors may be ranking for. If your competitors aren't specifically targeting the same keywords you are tracking, you may be ranking better for those keywords, but you may not necessarily be as competitive in the overall rankings for every keyword. Our metrics can only be calculated for the terms you choose to track, so it is really just a view of the keywords you are targeting and not necessarily the full picture of your visibility as a site overall.
