Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Could try using: https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/

It looks like it's a new site, and the quality of the site probably isn't helping you, for example: http://www.scribidocampus.com/blog/scribido-sample-blog-four/ I would remove those sample blogs and update it with relevant content.

Everything I can see is all link based though. So this is a link metric correct?

If so, how does a site have a DA of 26 but no link profile.

I would do the redirect to be safe then in the future make sure you run noindex on any development sites.

Hi Andy,

I see this:

"We calculate this metric by combining all of our other link metrics—linking root domains, number of total links, MozRank, MozTrust, etc.—into a single score."

Which leads me to believe that it is a link based metric.

Moz does this to:

I'm asking this for a guy over at SEOchat: http://forums.seochat.com/new-user-seo-questions-answers-123/unusual-change-domain-authority-486962.html

Here's what his post says:

Exclamation Unusual Change in Domain authority
Guys and Girls,

I'm having a weird issue in one of my sites , thing is the site had DA 11 in July and however when check on September Site is having 26 without me doing any type of link building and there are no new posts for this month as well. When checked using open site explorer there are no backlinks indexed in their Mozcape index as well.

Site: http://www.beijingtravelchannel.com/

Can you give me any plausible reasons for this to happen, so that i can check them out.

Thanks in Advance.

It shouldn't do as its just an iframe, if that were the case then every site that that used addthis would have a problem (which I know for a fact isn't true as two large sites I work with use it and have no issues).

As far as I'm aware, iframes do not pass on any of their attributes through to a website showing an iframe. The main reason I was curious about your reply was that screaming frog hadn't had any issues, I can understand myself having a small slip up, but a bit of software rarely does.

Back to the original question though, it is curious why there's no indexing by Google, Bing seems to have picked it up, and three days ago atleast. i can't see reason (in my brief look earlier) as to why it shouldn't be. So I came to the conclusion it hadn't been crawled or it had incredibly poor content (which I can't verify as I don't know Norwegian)

A friend just confirmed it, as you're using developer tools, what you're seeing is actually the fully loaded page, including iframes. So the noindex you have found is addthis. https://gyazo.com/abbdecc7e3d6a2d1f4d3acf65a48e65b

To actually check the source code, right click then click view source. That's the code for the specific site instead of loading all of the extra code you've been seeing. I would strongly advise you do like that from now onwards as the way you are doing is incorrect.

You know what, I don't think I am wrong.

Have a look at this source code from Bing's cache, can you see it there? http://cc.bingj.com/cache.aspx?q=site%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.oldermann.no%2F&d=4558460857156532&mkt=en-GB&setlang=en-GB&w=Zicz6YAWVXgY8u0BPAR9qKRHF8OEn7o5 (Disclaimer I got my friend to check as I'm on a mobile)

This gyazo was just taken for example: https://gyazo.com/93c71c3767c57b74cb9f8b482c23c38

Just ran it through this too, showing the same thing: http://www.seoreviewtools.com/bulk-meta-robots-checker/

oh oh and so you know I think I know why you've found the noindex, you're looking at the  for addthis.

Yes, I would have a seperate robots.txt files.

Unfortunately it's when Google feel like it:

https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/47334?hl=en

"We only show sitelinks for results when we think they'll be useful to the user. If the structure of your site doesn't allow our algorithms to find good sitelinks, or we don't think that the sitelinks for your site are relevant for the user's query, we won't show them."

Why would a content delivery network be a last resort? Cloudflare is something you can setup within under half an hour.

I would look at your host, as a "shared server" isn't exactly top tier hosting and Joomla is quite a heavy application.

I've had a quick look, I've been able to crawl it without any issues, the meta robots and robots.txt doesn't seem to be conflicting with anything at all.

It just doesn't look like it's even been found by Google.

Bing doesn't look to be having any issues indexing it: http://www.bing.com/search?q=site%3Aoldermann.no&go=Submit&qs=n&form=QBLH&pq=site%3Aoldermann.no&sc=0-17&sp=-1&sk=&cvid=B677970FF39F4A62A9B040806CF19EE0

What's the quality of the content on the site like? Have you "fetched as google" in the search console?

As mentioned by Thomas, I would really have a look at cloudflare, their free plan for me personally performs much better than other paid content delivery networks.

Hi,

I'm going to ask the obvious question, how long have you had the canonicals?

http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:Sxammv8gsm8J:www.britishbraces.co.uk/braces/novelty.html%3Fcolour%3D7853%26size%3D599&num=1&hl=en&gl=uk&strip=0&vwsrc=1

For example, that was crawled on the 2nd of September, yet if you search the code then you can't see any canonicals. I would personally give it a few weeks to let Google to update.

Tom (yep, the same one from SEO Chat)

Have you thought about using a CDN such as cloudflare?

From purely a customer point of view, I would setup a brand new website for this second business. I would much prefer the appearance that a company is a specialist in a single field than attempting to do everything.

I've got to agree, an a/b test on these pop-ups would be a perfect solution.

It looks like they're using a custom wordpress theme.
